Why did Brayden Bowers join 'The Bachelorette' Season 20? Sean McLaughlin questions co-star's motive during 'Men Tell All'
BURBANK, CALIFORNIA: The moment has almost come for Charity Lawson's ex-boyfriends to say their piece — but that doesn't mean Charity won't be able to respond during the 'Men Tell All' special on August 14.
Charity confronted Brayden Bowers about how their romance ended in PEOPLE's exclusive sneak peek at Monday's episode.
In every season of 'The Bachelorette', it seems like one guy can't take the thought of his lady love pursuing a couple of dozen other guys, even if he signed up for a dating show where you date a woman who is simultaneously dating a couple of dozen other men.
Brayden was that man this season. He walked out in a blaze of glory after weeks of 'The Bachelorette' viewers wanting Charity to let him go. Brayden even brought back the cliche of leaving, then returning, only to leave again, which enraged the other men.

Charity will tell Brayden what's on her mind during the 'The Bachelorette: Men Tell All' episode. "I will be honest: I did not like how you decided to navigate our relationship and our connection on the show," Charity said in a PEOPLE special look. "I feel like I was my 100 percent authentic self to you the whole time. I don’t think I ever put on anybody in this house," she added
Brayden's told Charity, "From the very beginning, I wasn’t sure the environment was the best environment for me. But the only thing I took out of it was the fact that I really liked you. There was that spark that, you know, you want when you meet someone."
Again, Brayden seemed to have been unaware that he would be dating Charity with several other guys but that is exactly how 'The Bachelorette' operates.

Sean questioned Brayden's intention on 'The Bachelorette'
Charity wasn't the only one who had something to say about Brayden at the 'Men Tell All' event. Sean McLaughlin called Brayden out for some things he said about Charity behind her back.
He chastised Brayden for admitting that he didn't know if he'd be able to "get down on one knee" at the end of the season.
Brayden responded by reminding Sean that he didn't even make it to the hometown date because he was too terrified to introduce Charity to his parents.
Sean dropped a bomb after a normal back-and-forth about who was there for the right or wrong reasons. He said Brayden told him Charity was "fake."
'The Bachelorette' airs Mondays at 8 pm ET on ABC.
