Ready for a committed relationship? The Bachelorette<\/em><\/a> season 20 contestant Brayden Bowers<\/strong><\/a> is back in hot water after his ex-girlfriend claimed he went on the show shortly after their split.<\/p>\n \u201cTwo scared-of-commitment people put together was interesting. It all ended for the greater good. I wish you the best of luck on your journey,\u201d Brayden\u2019s ex, Patty, captioned her Wednesday, July 17, TikTok video<\/a>.<\/p>\n The woman explained more of their relationship in the post, writing, \u201cPOV: You dated one person in San Diego, spend the holidays, meet the fam and they end up on The Bachelorette<\/em> right after.\u201d<\/p>\n The clip then cut to a handful of photos of Patty and Brayden, 25, during their alleged romance, including PDA pictures, silly selfies and a photo booth strip of snapshots with Christmas designs \u2013 which seemingly confirmed her claim that they spent the holiday season together.<\/p>\n Bachelor Nation<\/a> fans chimed in the comments section and reassured Patty that she \u201cdodged a bullet\u201d by not ending up with Brayden in the long run.<\/p>\n \u201cSurely watching this will help you get over him. His ego is astronomical. You\u2019re beautiful!\u201d one person wrote, while a second online user commented, \u201cBetter off without bestie!!! my roommates and I saw the toxicity immediately when he walked out of that car the first night.\u201d<\/p>\n While most TikTok users gave their support to Patty, others blamed the Bachelor franchise<\/a> production team for not doing their proper research on contestants and when their last relationships were.<\/p>\n Meanwhile, an online user asked Patty to give her truthful opinion on Brayden, asking if the \u201cvillain<\/a> edit\u201d was an \u201caccurate\u201d depiction of his character in real life.<\/p>\n \u201cI think he\u2019s young and trying the best he knows how to and is unsure about many things like many of us,\u201d Patty responded.<\/p>\n Although Brayden was \u200bseen by fans as problematic during his time on The Bachelorette<\/em>, he had an instant connection with lead Charity Lawson<\/strong><\/a> and even received the first impression rose during night 1.<\/p>\n Viewers were surprised to see Charity<\/a> give Brayden the high honor after her brother, Nehemiah Lawson<\/strong><\/a>, shared his concerns about the traveling nurse after he boasted about kissing his sister during their first one-on-one conversation.<\/p>\n Brayden also ruffled his fellow contestants\u2019 feathers in the Bachelor mansion, which led Adrian Hassan<\/a> (who got eliminated<\/a> week 3) to tell Charity that Brayden and other men were acting like they were on \u201cspring break\u201d during their free time on the show.<\/p>\n Tensions continued to rise after Brayden displayed possessive behavior toward Charity and admitted he packed his bags in an attempt to go home because he couldn\u2019t stand dating a woman who was also dating \u201c20 other guys.\u201d<\/p>\n After Aaron B<\/strong>. called Brayden out for his behavior during week 4, the San Diego resident made a controversial comment that involved physical violence.<\/p>\n \u201cI feel like I need to be like Will Smith<\/strong><\/a> right now and be like, \u2018Keep my name out of your f\u2013king mouth!\u2019\u201d Brayden said in a confessional, referencing the Will\u2019s and Chris Rock<\/strong> 2022 Oscars slap<\/a>. \u201cI\u2019m annoyed. There was no reason to bring up my name.\u201d<\/p>\n In the end, Charity sent Brayden home during a night portion of a group date during week 4.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
