Nick Viall and Shawn Booth Speak About ‘The Bachelorette’

Viewers of The Bachelorette were entertained this season by the competitive battle between Booth and runner-up Viall. “Nick and I are different people,” Booth, 29, told People. “Especially [watching the show as it aired], sitting back and watching him say stuff about me he would never be man enough to come to my face and say,” Booth said.

Bristowe said she liked Viall during the show. “You have those loving feelings, but at the end of the day, I picture the rest of my life with one person,” Bristowe explained. “It didn’t really matter at the end of the day who was there, because it wasn’t going to compare to Shawn.”

Bristowe and Viall shared an intimate moment after their one on one date, she says she felt guilty about Booth.

“I clearly felt guilty about it,” Bristowe admitted. “And as weird as it is, it made me realize how much I cared about Shawn because I was like, ‘I don’t feel right.'”

Bristowe and Booth finally meet with Viall in the After the Final Rose session, and decided to move on. “It was very unfortunate and frustrating,” Viall, 34, pointed out. “We looked immature and we looked petty. But I have no animosity toward Shawn. I really do wish he and Kaitlyn the best.”
