Why is Aaron Bryant back on 'The Bachelorette' Season 20?

Season 20 of 'The Bachelorette' is nearing an end, leaving Charity with a difficult decision to make, made even harder by the surprise reappearance of Aaron, whom she dismissed before the finalists' trip to Fiji. Charity's last weeks as 'The Bachelorette' lead have proven to be some of her most challenging, with the reality star forced to pick between the men with whom she has formed the greatest bonds during the season. Charity was stunned to see Aaron return and declare his love for her, trying to win her back after narrowing it down to Joey Graziadei and Dotun Olubeko.

Charity Lawson 'reconsidering everything' after Aaron Bryant's return

Charity seems more torn than ever in a sneak preview for 'The Bachelorette' Season 20 finale, which was shared on the Bachelor Nation YouTube channel. Before the drama begins, Charity is frank and honest about her trip coming to an end, revealing, "I am in love and I know that I am getting engaged, but I don't know who it's going to be." Charity admits that she is having to "reconsider everything" right now.

Aaron's unexpected return to 'The Bachelorette' puts extra strain on Charity, especially since his emotions are coming out loud and clear. "I still think of you as a wife." "I still see you as a wife. I still see you as the mother of my children," Aaron tells an emotional Charity. "There's life coming back into me now," he says in an interview. "Kissing Charity feels like this all wasn't for nothing, and I'm right back in it emotionally."
