Who is Brooklyn Willie's ex?

While growing up, Brooklyn always looked up to her grandfather. The rodeo girl, therefore, wanted someone in her life who could actually love her the same way her grandpa loved grandma. What Brooklyn didn't wanted was a boyfriend similar to her father. She said, "I didn't want to marry someone like my dad." But she eventually got involved with someone who was like her father. She stated, "I did find myself in a relationship where I was with someone just like my dad and I started out saying how I felt and what I thought and it got very out of hand, very emotionally abusive. I got to the point where I didn’t speak. I was a shell of the person I was." Brooklyn claimed in the recently released episode of 'The Bachelor' Season 27 that her ex started controlling her. He allegedly used to lash out at her. This reportedly left Brooklyn scarred forever. 

Brooklyn said to Zach in the episode, "If you would have met me a year ago, I wasn’t that way." She was mentally and physically "abused." The star cried her heart out in front of Zach saying, "And it got to a point where it got physical and so for six whole years I was not myself and I woke up one day and I was like no, this can’t define me." 

Seeing Brooklyn's social media there is almost no photo of any men except her father and a few friends. Therefore, it was hard to identify who her ex-boyfriend was. Whoever he was, he left Brooklyn with nothing but insecurities. Seeing her give 100% in a relationship and not getting anything in return made Brooklyn expect just the opposite. She now looks out for assurance.



 

Will Brooklyn get assurance from Zach Shallcross?

The barrell racer looks up to Zach. She thinks, "Zach is amazing for being receptive to (my story) and for making me feel comfortable. I never had a reciprocated love." Well, it seems Brooklyn is about to get friend-zoned by Zach in the upcoming episode. Brooklyn will manage to get ahead in the show till week 7. But after not receiving a rose from Zach, she will get eliminated. Reality Steve reported that during Budapest, Hungry trip Brooklyn will be sent home. At first, Christina Mandrell took the mantle of being the villain of the show and now it's Brooklyn's turn. The spoiler mogul, "In the back half of the season, that role will pretty much be taken over by Brooklyn. Just heard she was a pot stirrer and was in the middle of a lot of drama. We know she gets to episode #7 and is eliminated on her 1-on-1 date." 

Let us further wait for Monday's episode to catch up with more drama. 'The Bachelor' Season 27 drops new episodes every Monday at 8 pm ET on ABC.
