The Bachelor Season 28ABC
If it seems messy, thats because it probably will be.
Boy, was she wrong.
Talk about putting a target on her back.
Looks like that was the right move, because Joey gives Lea the first impression rose.
At the end of the night, Joey sends home five women.
As always, we didnt learn too much about any of the women in particular.
But, Joey told Deadline thats what hes most looking forward to as the season continues.
What Im so excited about is for all these girls stories that come to light.
They were an amazing group of women, he said.
It was a really great group of women that people are going to enjoy and really rally behind.
DEADLINE: What was your reaction to finding out that you were going to be dating sisters?
JOEY GRAZIADEI:The sisters was not something I had on my bingo card to start the night.
I think you saw, I put it together when I heard both of their stories.
But I was optimistic on that one.
But as I got to know Lauren, shes a lot like other girls I met in Philly.
GRAZIADEI:I dont know how I could ever prep for that.
It just feels kind of wrong from time to time.
But, for me, what was most important was just getting to know them.
DEADLINE: What was your reaction when you found out that Lea could steal a one-on-one date?
GRAZIADEI:It was tough.
If Im being completely honest, I was not very excited to hear that card.
So it was less about how I was feeling at that time.
DEADLINE: How did you learn that shed thrown the card in the fire?
GRAZIADEI:I found that out later on.
DEADLINE: A lot of women in her position would have been really happy.
What did you make of her reaction?
GRAZIADEI:I was very impressed with what she was thinking about, because she wasnt thinking about herself.
It just said a lot about her character.
DEADLINE: What went into your decision to give her the first impression rose?
GRAZIADEI:I kind of thought about it maybe a little differently than other people did.
DEADLINE: Is there anything else you took with you that you learned from Charitys season?
It might have nothing to do with our connection.
It just takes time.
So I just tried to be very understanding about the nerves and the feeling of all this.
