Kaitlyn Bristowe<\/strong><\/a> was initially soured to the idea of dating another member of Bachelor Nation<\/a> after her split from Jason Tartick<\/strong>, but she\u2019s since changed her tune.<\/p>\n

During her Sunday, August 25, appearance on Betches\u2019 \u201cU Up?\u201d<\/a> podcast, Bristowe, 39, revealed that a Bachelorette <\/i>alum was on her list of \u201csuperficial\u201d dating red flags.<\/p>\n

\u201cI wonder if other people have that in, like, the workplace,\u201d she quipped. \u201cLike, \u2018I don\u2019t want to date another lawyer if I\u2019m a lawyer.\u2019 It\u2019s one of those things where I say that, but then I see all the hot pieces of ass that come out of the Bachelor<\/i> franchise. And I\u2019m like, \u2018OK.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n

Bristowe first appeared on Chris Soules<\/strong>\u2019 season 19 of The Bachelor<\/i>, in which she got dumped ahead of the finale. She was then tapped to lead the next season of The Bachelorette<\/i>, ultimately getting engaged to Shawn Booth<\/strong>. The pair called off their engagement several years later and Bristowe moved on with Tartick. The \u201cTrading Secrets\u201d podcast host, 35, proposed in 2021, two years before Bristowe called off their engagement<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\tJason Kempin\/Getty Images Kaitlyn Bristowe\u2019s journey to find The One hasn\u2019t been all roses. Bachelor Nation was introduced to Bristowe during season 19 of The Bachelor when she competed for Chris Soules\u2019 heart in 2015. After finishing in third place, Bristowe was in the running to become the next Bachelorette and ultimately beat out Britt [\u2026]\t\t<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\u201cI think we both got caught up [in social media] in the beginning,\u201d Bristowe said on Sunday. \u201cYou know, we shared very quickly [that we were together] and Bachelor Nation loves another Bachelor Nation couple. We got all this attention and I seriously think we both got a little lost in that.\u201d<\/p>\n

She continued, \u201cWe got caught up in monetizing our relationship for social media and that felt gross really quick.\u201d<\/p>\n

Tartick has since moved on<\/a> with TikTok star Kat Stickler<\/strong>. Bristowe, meanwhile, has not introduced her social media followers to a new partner, but has been back in the dating scene.<\/p>\n

\u201cI want to build a solid and trustworthy foundation with somebody first,\u201d Bristowe explained, noting her ideal social media debut would occur once she\u2019s married. \u201cLike it or not, I do have a following \u2026 and that\u2019s something I have to now think about. I don\u2019t want to even tease it and, like, put an emoji over his face and get people talking. It doesn\u2019t feel good.\u201d<\/p>\n

Bristowe further pointed out that social media gets tricky when a couple goes through \u201ctough times\u201d and stops posting about one another frequently.<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\tWhile some roses stand the test of time, others wilt before the Neil Lane engagement ring can be resized. The Bachelor premiered on ABC in March 2002 with Alex Michel dubbed the world\u2019s most eligible Bachelor. More than 20 women competed for his heart and one of the most successful reality TV franchises was born. [\u2026]\t\t<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\u201cThen people start questioning it [and] it invites a lot of noise,\u201d she said, noting that had happened in her relationship with Tartick.<\/p>\n
