Why did Hayden Markowitz skip 'The Bachelorette: Men Tell All' special'? Fans dub him 'coward'
BURBANK, CALIFORNIA: It looks like 'The Bachelorette' Season 19 suitor Hayden Markowitz isn't going to be let off the hook for his questionable behavior on the show any time soon. After criticizing Gabby Windey by calling her "rough around the edges" while dumping her to pursue Rachel Recchia, and later referring to both the ladies as "b****es' who didn't compare to his ex, Hayden instantly became one of the most hated men of the season.
Though it was a cathartic moment to watch him get dumped by Rachel later in the season, fans however were hoping for him to be held accountable for his behavior during the "Men Tell All' special. While all the men, including Logan Palmer, and Jacob, who were dubbed the villains of the season, showed up, Hayden and Chris Austin, decided to skip it. The show host- Jesse Palmer mentioned their absence in passing without revealing any details on as to why two of the most problematic men of the season were absent from the special episode. This led to fans speculating if Hayden chose to sit out to avoid facing the repercussions for his behavior.

A fan tweeted, "Hayden watching #MenTellAll from home after being too coward to show up #thebachelorette."

"Hayden could have maybe saved (a little bit of) face if he came and gave a genuine apology (with Jacob’s being a great example). He didn’t even try, which makes me think he still wasn’t wrong. #MenTellAll #TheBachelorette," added a fan. "Hayden is being a real baby back b**** by not showing up #TheBachelorette," mocked a fan.
