AGOURA HILLS, CALIFORNIA: After 'The Bachelor' Season 28 star Jenn Tran shared details about her strained relationship with her parents, the internet began to pass judgments on her personality and how it might have affected her negatively.

For the unversed, Jenn had shared how she had a traumatic childhood experience and that has led her to not maintain any relationship with her father. She even shared how it took a toll on her that she stopped talking to her father. 

Some online users expressed concerns about this and argued that her troubled relationship with her father, given the toxicity she described in her parents' relationship, might be a red flag.

They warned Joey about potential issues arising from her family dynamics and judged her based on the dynamics of her relationships with her parents.

A user said, "Jenn is so cute but it's a big red flag when a woman has no relationship with her Dad". "Imagine a man tells you he hates his mom and has no relationship with her. Red flag? Yeah," added another.



 



 

Others attacked Joey for picking Jenn for a date despite her situation with her father. "Me looking for @joeygraziadeii red flags each week," said a user. 



 

What happened between Jenn Tran's parents? 

Jenn had opened up in a TikTok video about the challenges she faced due to her parents' troubled marriage. She described a difficult period when their relationship reached a breaking point, marked by constant conflicts.

Witnessing her parents' continuous fighting left her with a sense of failure, lacking a positive example of a loving partnership.

The situation escalated to the point where her parents decided to sleep in separate rooms, and her father moved to the basement, maintaining this arrangement for nearly six years.

Jenn also shared how this affected her, as she got used to “accepting anybody who would give her love or what she thought was love."

When did Jenn Tran get eliminated? 

In episode 7 of 'The Bachelor' spoilers by Reality Steve, it indicated that Jenn faces elimination when Joey has to choose two women to leave out of his final six. This crucial decision took place during their visit to Jasper, Alberta, Canada.

Regrettably, Jenn is eliminated alongside Kelsey Toussant. This means that she did advance to the next stage of hometown visits, missing the opportunity to introduce Joey to her family.
