“Bachelorette” star Jenn Tran has some regrets over the “steamy” makeout scenes she had with a few of the two dozen men she dated on the ABC show.
Ahead of Monday’s Season 28 premiere, the reality star reflected on her journey to find love and how she feels now, knowing millions of viewers will be tuning in to watch – including her family.
“I don’t have regrets in any decisions that I made because I trusted myself very much, and I still do,” Tran, 26, shared on the “Off the Vine” podcast with Kaitlyn Bristowe hours before the premiere.
“I think everything happened the way it was supposed to. I think that I regret the steamy makeouts because my family will be watching.”
Bristowe – who stared on Season 11 of the “Bachelorette” – reassured her, however, that fans “wanna see steamy makeouts” rather than a quick peck on the lips.
Tran also recalled starring on Season 28 of the “Bachelor” with Joey Graziadei and being cautious as the cameras followed her along for the journey.
“And then the second time around, I was like, what do you mean? I’m just living my life,” the physician assistant student said, noting that she learned to ignore the cameras as time went on.
“So, like, in my head, I was like, ‘This isn’t gonna be televised anywhere. Mom and Dad will have to watch this.’”
Tran was chosen to be the next “Bachelorette” after being eliminated from Graziadei’s season.
Graziadei ultimately gave his now-fiancée, Kelsey Anderson, his final rose.
The two are living together in New Orleans along with Anderson’s two roommates.
The new season of the “Bachelorette” premieres Monday at 8 p.m. ET on ABC.
