We love you so much. Up next is Rachel Ruckia, aka Pilot Rachel. Hey, girl. I'm so excited. Oh my gosh. I'm so excited to have you on the podcast. Thank you guys so much for doing this. Okay, first off, how did you become the Bachelorette?

Honestly, so insane. I really feel like, at least for me, the only way I became a lead is by like not wanting to be it. be it because I wanted to end up with the Bachelor. I was so all in. I think the world watching me and Gabby truly just get so heartbroken. It resonated with them. They wanted to see us find happiness and so we did in a way together.

But yeah, no, honestly, it didn't end the way it traditionally does, but I have like no regrets and I loved my experience. What was it like as a bachelorette? You had to share that moment with somebody else. If you're on a dating show, it's already a huge competition and it's like, you feel like you might be so in love and then you're also like in a competition So like what do you do? But also you are

Being the main Bachelorette sharing that part with someone else like did you feel like you were constantly compared to each other? Like were you like dating guys at the same time? Like did you have resentment to each other? I just need all the tea I really feel like this could not have happened if me and Gabby were not the bachelorette It's like we are such girls girls. We always put each other first like even on the bachelor we always put each other's feelings before anything and That was kind of the main way we got through it and we always say and to this day like I Could not have done it without her Wow and awesome

I don't know how leads do it on their own. It's so isolating Oh, yeah, he has a question. Do you feel like that hurt you? Honestly, no like looking back at the way it went. It's not that there was two of us I just think Gabby and I's person wasn't there. Like looking back, it just, that's the way it was. Did you guys like date the same people the entire time though? Like I just want to know like how does that work? I know it's like everybody like even me, I'm like how does, how the hell does this work? Truly to this day, we were all figuring it out on the fly.

And I think people think that the producers, like we all had a plan. We were all just going with it. And I think, so we did date the same guys for like two weeks, which I will say in a way that might've hurt both of us because the guys were very just floating in between the both of us, didn't want to pick a side. So eventually we just kind of came to a day where we're like, all right, you're either team Gabby're team Rachel.

We naturally liked different people. So that was nice. That's good. Cause like what if you guys had like the same guy? So we had one guy that we both kind of liked. We both were like, I like him. You liked him. Did you guys talk to each other like behind the scenes and we're like, what the hell do

we do? That's the thing. They never really showed me in her talking. We talked about every little detail that was on there. See, that's good to know. Yeah. So at the time I was like, hey, I really want to pursue this. What do you think?

And she was like, go for it. And then eventually he decided he wanted to like try and see if things would work with her. But we talked about that too. We talked about everything. So that's awesome. Like you're truly a girl's girl. And thank God she was too. You could have been with somebody who was like, I don't care what she thinks. You

know what I mean? It would have been good TV. It would have been good TV, but like personally and like what you went through as a individual that would have been so hard. I can't imagine. I really can. Are you happy that you were able to be like the Bachelorette? It is such an honor. Like it changed my life so much. I'm so happy I got the experience. I don't regret it at all. But obviously, you know, didn't work out the way, you know, it should have, but who knows?

Like you never know what the future holds. I mean, I feel like you are amazing. You know, I love you. I've told you a million times over this entire trip. Like, and also you're a pilot. That is so interesting to me. And how did you decide that you wanted to be a pilot? I just need to know this really fast

because that's such an interesting career choice for a woman because I know it's so male. It's way more men are pilots, I feel like. So I'm sure as a woman you felt like, I don't know, I don't know what I'm sure as a woman, you felt like, I don't know, I don't know how, I don't know what I'm trying to say, but you know what I mean. Like it's just such a male driven job. I feel like so as a woman, like that is just like an amazing thing to see like you as a pilot. Like I freaking love that. Thank you so much. No, really, honestly, I feel like there are a lot of

careers you can have and then you can have like a calling like something that you just were kind of born knowing you were going to do. Like I remember being young and being like, I'm going to be a pilot. And I used to have teachers and they would be like, oh, like you could be a flight attendant. You could be this. And like my dad, he was the main one. He'd be like, no, you could be a pilot. And I think a lot of people don't even know it's a career path in general. But women really just never think that that's an option.

They think you have to be in the military. But I love the fact that I can kind of shine light on that. I love that. Anyone could do it. Literally anyone could do it. I love that. You are an inspiration to so many people out there. I'm sure who had that same dream.

So that's amazing. That's why I want to call it out. Because I think it's so inspiring that you did that. And you know, I'm sure you had to hold your own and like be like, I am just as good. And like, cause yeah, like it's just a whole thing. But I do want to know, okay. So from the last thing that we all know

from the Bachelorette, you're still single. Who can I set you up with? Oh, that's good. Lori. Do you have any ideas? What about Tom Schwartz? Tom Schwartz well, I'm not in the friend group. So I mean Tom Schwartz call me. Oh my god So, I mean, Tom Schwartz, call me. Oh my god! I was just gonna say, that's not nice of us to say

because of Katie, but yeah, you're right, girls, girls. We are. Yeah. But you're not in the frame. I don't think Tom Schwartz can handle you, honey. That was G. Oh my goodness. I'm just like, I think that you are such a catch.

And you are absolutely beautiful Your body is freaking banging a lot of people actually this is a question from the fan is from at K Yr. Dixon is Rachel dating and we need breast reduction updates So, you know, I'm definitely wanting to date, definitely open to it. Reduction updates, I think it's four months post-op now.

It literally has changed my life. Best decision I ever made, I would do it a million times over. Like truly, the way I can exercise, the way I live my life has just been changed forever So amazing Like they look amazing And I'm so happy for you I think that everybody should just do whatever they want to do to make themselves feel good about their bodies like it should not matter

What you know what I mean? All right, I'm out that earlier. Yeah, it's like a whole thing Like whatever makes you happy do what makes you happy as an individual Don't worry so much about everybody else's opinions. Do what makes you happy guys? Okay from Jack's. Okay, if you could hop on any other reality TV show, which one would it be and why okay? survivor Survivor fan and I just would want to see if I could do it. Yeah Yeah, because I'm not like a camping girl But like how fun would it be to like do those puzzles like and oh my god stand on one foot like on a log

I would just love it. I tag Jeff Probst and all my posts Like put me on I really do all right put her on survivor guys. All right speed round you ready? Okay, favorite reality show and favorite reality star of all time. Okay survivor and Parvati Oh, she's like the best like like girl, dark, feminine energy. Love her. Love that. Celebrity hall pass. Jo Burrow.

Okay, biggest regret while on TV? Missing a nail while I was crying in Iceland. Missing a nail? Straight up missing one long acrylic and I can't unsee it. That is the worst whenever you like lose a nail. It's a big moment like that sucks. Literally. So bad.

Best advice for other couples. Well, I don't think I'm one to give advice. Honestly, I need couples to give me advice. So. Well, what do you have, Britt? I mean, am I the best? Well, I'm kind of am. I don't know. I think just like working with each other and like giving and like it's all like you have to work with each other. Does

that make sense? Like it has to be a lot of giving and getting. Exactly it's all about effort. What's one question you wish I asked you today and how would you have answered? I wish Britt would ask me if I wanted to take another tequila shot because the answer is always yes. Yes! All week! Thank you Rachel. I freaking love you! Thank you so much! Typical children's vitamins are basically candy in disguise. Filled with two teaspoons of sugar, unhealthy chemicals, and other gummy junk growing kids should never eat.

That's why HIA was created. The pediatrician approved super power chewable vitamin. While most children's vitamins are filled with five grams of sugar and can contribute to a variety of health issues, HIA is made with zero sugar and zero gummy junk. Yet it tastes great and is perfect for picky eaters. Haya fills the most common gaps in modern children's diets to provide the full body nourishment our kids need with a yummy taste they love.

Formulated with the help of nutritional experts, Haya is pressed with a blend of 12 organic fruits and veggies, then supercharged with 15 essential vitamins and minerals including vitamin D, B12, C, zinc, folate, and many others to help support immunity, energy, brain function, mood, concentration, teeth, bones, and many more. It's non-GMO, vegan, dairy-free, allergy-free, gelatin-free, nut-free, and everything else you can imagine. Haya is designed for kids 2 and up and sent straight to your door, so parents have one less thing to worry about. I love Haya. Cruz loves the taste.

I tasted them myself and know how good they taste. With no sugar added, that was super important to me. Cruz is such a picky eater, so having a vitamin that doesn't have all the extra sugars and stuff like that is so important. Like I said, picky eaters can be so hard to make sure they're getting all the nourishment their body needs, and that's why I love Haya. I can tell that Cruz loves them too.

I also love that the bottle comes with stickers and that they can decorate it with your first order. It's so cute. Cruz loves putting the little stickers on the bottle and he also enjoys eating them. So it is perfect. We've worked out a special deal with Haya for their best selling children's vitamin.

Thanks for having me all the way over across from the room. Thank you so much for traveling over here and sitting on the pillow. From the chair, no problem. It was a long way, but I'm happy to be here.

Oh my gosh. So you are getting married to Grocery Jo. That's how everybody knows them. You know what, we're actually married already. Yeah, oh my gosh, yes. But we are having our wedding. You are.? We're actually married already. Yeah. Oh my gosh. Yes. But we are having our wedding.

You are. It's okay. I forget sometimes too. You are married. Yes. But you are getting ready to have your wedding. Yes, correct. Oh my gosh.

How excited are you? What advice would you give to other couples who are planning a wedding? Oh gosh. I'm very excited. I'm at the point where I feel like all the big decisions have been made so we can really just start to look forward to the day, which is really nice. Wedding planning is hard and it's honestly, I feel like everyone tells you that,

but like until you go through it, it's hard to realize how much it is. Like it's really a lot. We were very fortunate to have a wedding planner and I think if that's something in your means, I highly recommend it. It took so much stress and pressure off of our plate because at the end of the day like you only hope to plan one wedding in your life. It's a lot to learn to do once these people do it for a career like I

have so much information knowledge that I would just never have had and yeah just research listen to your friends talk to people get as much information as you can if you don't have a wedding planner Like talk to people that have planned weddings I guarantee you you can get free tips from your friends and family on what they wish they did and didn't do but at the end Of the day like you have to plan what's gonna be best for you also So it's like listening to the tips and advice from the people around you But also being able to be like what is really a fit for us? Because I feel like there's such a traditional wedding

format, but you have to figure out like, what suits your personality and like represents you best as a couple. I 100% agree. And I love that you moved from Toronto to New York City for Joe and how long were you guys together before that? Because I'm not judging. I moved from Kentucky to LA after like two and a half, three months. Did you really? Yes.

To move in with Jax. So how long were you with Joe before you decided to move to New York from Toronto and like how did that affect your life? Was it a huge culture shock? Because like New York City City is insane. Oh yeah. Even compared to LA, I think it's insane. So how was that for you? No, it was great. We were together on the show for 19 days and then June, I'm trying to think, and then Joe signed the lease in the following April, so I don't know if that's what, 10 months I think that we were together before we got the place. And yeah, we're there most of the time, that's like kind of our home base.

I'm still like bouncing back and forth to Toronto a lot, which is wonderful because I'm a Canadian gal. But we love New York, like we're both city people. Like she grew up in Chicago. I grew up in Toronto. We're East Coast city people. So as much as it was a culture shock, we are obsessed with it. We're people that want to go out to eat.

We don't mind not having a car. We love walking. Like the energy of the city is just everything we wanted. And I feel like I hadn't spent that much time in New York before he got the place there, but enough that I was like, yeah, I'm pretty sure sure it's going to work. We're going to like it.

But it was still a risk. Also, like Joe didn't live in New York? No, neither of us had lived in New York. Oh, that was like a brand new experience for both of you. Oh, wow. That's interesting. Yeah. We wanted somewhere that was neutral.

We didn't want to feel like we were immersing ourselves in one person's life or the other. We wanted like neutral territory for the relationship. Oh, I love that. I love that. And we thought like now is the time, like why not? We're young, we don't have kids. Like this is the time to try somewhere new and yeah, we've just totally fallen in love with the city. Oh my gosh, I'm so happy for you guys.

So I know that you guys have a big age gap, right? It's like 12. We're 11 and a half years. 11 and a half years, okay. What are you guys? 10 years. 10 years, Okay. Ten years. So I get it. Do you think that the age gap causes any issues or do you think it's good? How does that affect your relationship? So I say the two times that we notice it the most, I'm curious if you feel this as well, is pop culture references because what we grew up watching and listening to is totally

different. Yes. And I would say when we hang out with his friends versus my friends, it's just a different dynamic of like his friends are married and have homes and a lot of them have children whereas my friends are like some of them still live at home and they're starting their careers. I mean you're 25, you're a youngin'. I'm the only friend with a husband, I'll tell you that. But it's great, honestly, like we say we balance each other out because he's like, I'm so immature, and like he thinks I'm mature for my age.

That's what I was going to say is that, that's what I was going to say is that like even though like me and Jax, I'm just putting my part into this. Like even though me and Jax have a 10 years age difference, like we have to have that because guys are so freaking amateur. I've been telling all my friends like day older. Yes. Like whenever like my 25 year old friends are like, oh yeah, I'm talking to this like 24 year old.

I'm like, no, it's not gonna work out. No. Like very rare does that work out. Very rare. It can be exceptions. There are like 20 something year old men that are mature. Like I'll give them the credit, but like my female friends like are so successful

and like have so much going for them. And like, I just feel like they like are moving at a quicker speed in life than a lot of, not all my male friends, but just like a lot of the men our age. And one of my best friends is dating a guy that is a few years old, and she's notorious for dating a young, fun guy, and she's like,

oh my god, it's literally night and day. And I was like, I've been telling you, you're missing out. Dating up is the way to go. If you're looking for something serious. I agree. Most of the time. I agree. If you're looking for fun, maybe I agree. Most of the time. I agree. If you're looking for fun maybe younger but I'm just kidding. Older is fun too. It's all like amazing

but I agree with you like I feel like it's just you don't even notice the age difference. Like for me and Jax like I do not even feel like he's ten years older than me. You know what I mean? When you met him were you at all freaked out by the age difference or did it not even phase you? No I didn't even know and I think that he might have locked me up first and told me like his wrong age like I When you met him, were you all freaked out by the age difference or did not even face you? No, I didn't even know. And I think that he might have blocked me at first and told me like his wrong age. Like I think he told me he was like 34 or something. Oh my gosh.

So Joe had said he was like, I assumed because I was 23 when we met and got engaged. Did you guys meet on, I mean, we met on the show for the first time. Like we'd never spoken before. So he was like, I assumed you were probably like 25 and I had assumed he was like 30, 31. So we in our minds were like, oh, we're like five, six, maybe seven years apart. And then when we found we actually said our ages, I was like, oh, we're like a big age difference or bigger than I had had envisioned for who I was going to end up with.

But really it doesn't matter. It really doesn't matter. It does not matter. Did your family and friends and everything, did they all care about the age difference or was that something that you had to struggle with? I think they maybe were like, oh wow, he's a lot older than you

and thought about it more until they met him. You know what I mean? Yeah. My friends were like, you're picturing someone so much older and ahead of us that's gonna come to the bar with us. But he's like, that's so ungrateful. And then once you get to meet them and know that person,

the age does become just a number. You see this label of name, age, height, wherever you're born, whatever, and then you meet this person, all that kind of dissolves away, and it's just like, this is who they are. And as long as you can connect with them like and truly like a 25 year old like my 25 year old friends and my 37 year old

husband like are still able to connect with each other and find things in common and get along that's all I care about. Of course and oh my gosh I think that you guys are the cutest couple and I met Joe a couple times and he is so nice. Yeah he's the best. He is a great man. I'm so happy for you guys. And I just feel like you guys are gonna be the happiest, most beautiful couple. Oh, thank you.

You and Abigail are obviously very close, but you guys were on the same season. You guys both were, what, Matt? Matt, right? Yeah, Matt James. So you guys both were on the season for James so you guys both were on the season for Matt so how does that happen like how how like are you guys at first like in competition with each with each other on the show and then become

friends like I just I feel like everybody watching is like like how do the girls not want to call each other's eyes out because you're all fighting for the same guy right Abigail definitely tried to physically fight me multiple times. What? No, I'm kidding. Oh my god, sweet ass Abigail. No, I think, you know what? You, what, like people don't really get to see is you spend so, so, so much more time with the girls than you do with whoever the bachelor is. And I do think there's definitely girls that do want to claw each other's eyes out and

it isn't always easy all dating the same guy. But you really just form friendships with these people and I think the best way to do is just like compartmentalize like these are my friends, that's the guy I'm dating, I'm not going to think about the crossover that's happening here. Yeah, but like if you're both hooking up with the same person, like isn't that weird? Of course it's weird. There's nothing normal about that show. But you just have to like, if you know,

he was kissing Abigail in front of me, I would just look away. Like I don't want to see that. You know what I mean? Oh my God! This is so weird. I just love getting on the team because I just know everybody wants to know.

If you're an intensely jealous person, like that I can imagine, don't go on. Do not go on The Bachelor. Yeah, it would be very hard. Do not be on The Bachelor. Anyone listening, do not go on The bachelor yeah I do not be on the bachelor anyone listening do not go on the bachelor and bachelor if you're jealous as hell the thing too is I think it really only gets harder like way way later on when there's like deep deep connections and feelings involved and then neither of us obviously ended up with him so then it's like oh well who

cares like yeah sure an X but whatever like I love that and you guys are like everybody here is just so amazing. I'm so glad I got to know you guys more on this trip. It's been a pleasure to be with you guys. We're going to go into our fan question. Okay, this is from at Mishka Bryant. How did you know that he's the one? I'd love to hear answers, married or not.

Okay, I'm trying to think. I knew, oh my God, it's such a bad answer, but you do just kind of know, and I do think that it comes down, Jo and I were talking about this the other day, you're not always gonna, we're very lucky to have found someone that is such a perfect fit. And it really is so easy.

And that's not to say we don't put work into our relationship, but the work is easy. It's like work we wanna put in because we love spending time together and we love being together. And I just think when you find that, I think a lot of relationships can feel like square peg round hole

where you're like kinda trying to make something fit or like, you're like, okay, this fits 90%. I'll just put in a little extra work to make it go all the way because I'm gonna choose to make it work with this person but for him and I just felt so natural so easy I really trusted him I really respected him and I just fell in love with him so easily and yeah that's just been like a continuing theme throughout our whole relationship. I love that okay question from Jax. Ready? Yeah. You think I would know what I was gonna say? I don't even remember what the question is and I've heard it asked three times. I know. If you could hop on any other reality TV show which one would it be and why? Okay not to piggyback off G but I also genuinely would say Dancing with the Stars. It just looks like so much fun and I feel like everyone ends up in amazing shape. You get to wear these fun cute costumes. Joe was on it so I've heard about like how amazing it was.

Oh, Joe was on Dancing with the Stars? Yeah, he was. I didn't even know that. He went to the semi-finals. Oh my gosh. I know. I tried to go watch. That's awesome. Yeah, do it. It's on YouTube. His friends have pulled it up for me before. That's awesome. Okay, speed round. You ready? Okay, no, but yes. Alright, ready? Fast questions, fast answers. Favorite reality show and favorite reality star of all time? Okay, um, favorite reality show, during the pandemic,

my sister and I binged a bunch of seasons of the challenge, and I was so addicted. It's so good. Favorite reality star of all time? Grossy Sturgeau. Jordan's on my list. Yeah, he's gorgeous. Biggest regret while on TV? Oh, I made a couple weird fashion choices on both my seasons that I look back on and I was like, what is going on here? Oh my gosh, I feel the same way. Some of it's I'm like, slay, slay, you look amazing. Some I'm like, Serena, like, were you blackout drunk when you dressed yourself that morning? The first time I was ever on Watch Rapunzel Live, I like, it was just the worst thing

I've ever seen. Anyways, best advice for other couples? Prioritize having fun together. Good. I think it's important to make memories and do things that are fun and make you both happy. Oh, that's great advice. Okay, last one. What's one question you wish I had asked you tonight and how would you have answered?

Well, Lori KPR has trained me well. So, Brittany, I wish you asked me, where can listeners find me? And it would be at my Instagram, serena underscore fit. And on the Happy Hour podcast, which Joe and I are newly hosting. Ooh, yes. All right, thank you so much, Serena.

You are just a pleasure to be around. You are such a sweetheart. You're inspiration to so you on. You are just a pleasure to be around. You are such a sweetheart. You're inspiration to so many people. I will say watching you on Instagram being so open about your hearing impairment and things like that are like it's incredible to see and I just hope that you know like how amazing you are and I just want to know with everything you've gone through being on a show like The Bachelor where there was so much stuff going on like how was that for you in particular like dealing with

everything that you have to deal with like how how was that for you? Well first off you're so sweet I love you but honestly like when I went on the show, it was the first time I really ever talked about my hearing loss publicly. And I feel like it actually ended up being the perfect environment too because I was always so scared to talk about it because I don't like being the center of attention. I know that's weird to say going on a TV show. But I feel like there were so many things going on the first night. Like, there was Queen Victoria, there was Katie with the vibrator, there were so many

things going on. Katie with the vibrator. Yes. The first night. So I was like, honestly, I feel like this is a perfect time for me to say this is what's unique about me and I didn't feel too different about it. But honestly, I've loved being able to share my story. I always appreciate people like you,

especially saying how you resonate with my story, listened to it, appreciated it. And yeah, I just hope to keep doing it. I mean, I love your videos that you do with Noah too. Like, they're just amazing. You're like doing your hair, and you're talking about everything. You're being so open and so real.

And I think that's so Important to be so real and be who you really are and I just absolutely admire you for that And I think that you were absolutely amazing. I just want to know What made you decide to go on the bachelor in the first place? So I was actually a fan of the show I know a lot of girls go on and they're like, oh I have people nominate me listen It's good that you're open and honest the fact that you're like nobody wanted me to go on I apply myself I wanted to go on But honestly the reason I apply so it was during Kopen. I had it been planning jobs

obviously I was furloughed during Kopen and I was on my computer looking for jobs and an ad for the bachelor came on TV and it was Matt James and I was on my computer looking for jobs and an ad for The Bachelor came on TV and it was Matt James. And I was like, oh, Matt James is the next bachelor. Do you want to apply and like date the next bachelor? And I was like, that guy's really hot. Okay. I have nothing else going on in my life. I'm single. I have no job. I have no prospects. Like nothing. So I'll apply. And one thing led to another and I ended up on the show three months later. Amazing, are you so happy that you did it?

So happy. Honestly, I look at my life back when I applied. Honestly, I was happy with my life, but it was a lot of what's next or like I know there's something bigger for me. And then going through the show as scary as it was it's honestly the most liberating thing I did I was like you know I was so scared of speaking publicly or people's opinions

and I feel like once you go on reality TV as weird as it is it makes you feel like you can do anything yeah I mean it's scary to go on reality TV in general because I'm sure you know you've been on for 10 years. I mean people judge you so hard and it's different than like anything else because it's it's it's just I feel like for reality TV it's just such a different involvement with people and like how they judge you and how they react to things that you're doing. But I just want to know because you're with Noah I am guys are so freaking cute thank you do you see you and Noah getting married and

how did you know that he was the one I mean obviously obviously if you answer the first one you know he's the one. But still, like, what do you see for your future with Noah? I mean, I don't want to jinx anything, but I absolutely see us getting married. It's something we talked about even when the show was airing. We were talking about that feature for us. And I just knew he was the one because I'm sure you know like when you're dating someone in the public eye I feel like the biggest fear is like okay It's someone different than they are on screen and then once the cameras off the flip goes off or whatnot

And the fact that Noah was just threw me with so much even when the cameras were off I know like the best things like the bar so low but just a fact that like He was exactly how he was on camera for a year Two years after I'm like wait this bubbles not getting burst like he truly is the perfect guy Freaking love you guys. You are so we love you in Jackson Okay, so if you were to get married, okay, what would your dream wedding look like? So I was actually talking about this with like the girls in the poll today and I honestly ended up on, have you seen like Father of the Bride?

Like the whole like early 2000s rom-com like backyard wedding Just I think there's something about it to me where I think my life has been so crazy in the last two years And I'm not saying all of it superficial But a lot of it has been trying to get the perfect shot trying to get the perfect outfit everything and I think the reason that Noah and I Truly are such a good match is at the end of the day. We grew up the same way where it's we grew up so simple We truly just grew up with like good family values all we care about is just being in love being married starting a family and

I just want our wedding to reflect that like I don't need And I just want our wedding to reflect that. I don't need a $100,000 wedding. Truly, if we got married with nothing in our backyard besides our family and friends, cheap ass chairs, just like we brought some wine, oh yeah. Go to the courthouse, it's like $30. Oh, literally. Serena.

Just like anything, I think honestly at this point in my life I don't need anything I just want to be married to him. Like that's all I care about. But I freaking love that. Like oh my gosh I think that that is absolutely amazing and I want to ask you like one of the same questions I asked Serena. You guys both went on the show or kind of like competing for the same man, and you guys became very close.

She beat me. From the show. So on your side, like how does that happen? Like how we were competing for the same guy? And became such close friends. Because I feel like any girl that's watching it is like, it's a competition. And obviously everybody gets super competitive. And it's like, but you obviously are very close and good friends to each other

So like I just want to know like what about the two of you like brought you guys together and you know From your side she said her side which was yeah, I just want to know what you think So I think obviously it's different for everybody But I think the reason I was able to be really close with a lot of girls is at the end of day I really didn't have like back of a connection with Matt obviously I thought he was hot we hit it off the first night but we really didn't have like a deep connection so I spent so much more time with the other girls like I think I was there for a month and a half never got a one-on-one with him I think as like at most like if you add up all my time together, I think 45 minutes. Oh shoot. With him.

So you spent majority of your time with the girl. Absolutely. That is a good perspective to see, like you only had like 45 minutes with him and you were on this whole entire show. Exactly, and I probably spent like- That is very interesting, like that is like- And I spent every other walking minute with the other girls

I felt like college all over again Like in the dorms like you're with everybody every minute and I've heard like other girls like being the final two and still being really good friends and like oh even the guy and everything and I can't relate to them, but I think that's why my Friendship has been really strong with the girls from my season because I my friendship has been really strong with the girls from my season because I didn't have that connection with Matt. It wasn't like oh we were really into Matt the same way and whatnot. Oh my goodness. I just love hearing all this stuff. I feel like I'm getting all the T's. I can't ask anything. I freaking love it. Okay question from a fan. This is

from at Jen Lauren 12. Ask Abby if she feels pressured to get engaged. So do you feel pressured to get engaged? So if I felt pressured to get engaged, I felt like we would've gotten engaged a year and a half ago. We've been getting pressured for so long. No, honestly, I think people forget that like,

Noah and I were on a normal timeline. Yeah, we met on a TV show, but we, I mean, we're hitting our two-year mark next month, which is like perfect Yeah, and that's like normal in terms of like real life like would you be asking like your Brother sister your co-workers like not even two years being like why aren't you engaged? Yeah, why not getting married? literally Does Noah feel pressure from you to get engaged?

Yes, good question. So I actually think what's really cute is I haven't put pressure on him. I think he, I mean, I'm sure he gets pressure from like the outside and whatnot, but I think it's really cute that he's not a planner. He's not really like proactive in a lot of things. And usually I take on that role. But when it comes to like rain shopping and everything else, like he's really excited.

Like he's kind of taking on the planning mode. So yeah, so it definitely feels really special that like, okay, when it matters, like he's able to like, play that stuff. Serena, do you agree? I agree. Okay. Oh my goodness.

All right. You ready for Jax's question? Absolutely. Okay. If you could hop on any other reality TV show, which one would it be and why? Band of Pump Rules. No question. I want to be able to get roasted by Jax, Lala, James, everybody.

I'm so sensitive, but I could take it. Literally nobody would roast you because you are an angel. I want him to roast me though. How would we ever roast Abigail? How would that ever happen? Even Jax couldn't find anything to say about you. I really give him something. I really really pick a fight last minute I did a seasick I think it's so iconic when Jax throws somebody that is amazing Remember when Jax called you Abigail?

No! What did he call me? What? I'm so excited to meet Jax's Abigail is like a true and true bander pump. Okay, this is Lori. So I can FaceTime Jax to meet Abigail and I'm like Jax, I'm like Abigail from Bachelor wants to meet you and he goes, Hey, Abigail. It's okay Jax, I never remember. But also like what, who's named Abigail? Is that even a real name? It's like he went out of his way to call me the wrong name.

I'll take it. I'll take it. Like, is that a real name? I'm sorry if your name is Abigail, but that's like, is out of his way to call me the wrong name. But I'll take it. I'll take it. Like, is that a real name? I'm sorry if your name is Abigail, but that's like, is that a real name? I don't even know. I'll take it.

Anywho, ready for speed round? I am. OK, ready? Question one. Favorite reality show and favorite reality star of all time? Band of Pump Rules and Jax. I'm sorry.

Jax is so iconic. Thank you. That's my husband. And you're second. But Jax has I'm sorry, Jax is so iconic. Thank you! That's my hubby though. And you're second. But Jax has been on the show a little bit longer. So like. Listen, I give all the credit to my hubby. He makes amazing reality TV. He really does. So everybody needs to give Jax credit for all of his hard work out there. Okay y'all. Alright, alright. Number two. Celebrity hall pass. Harry Styles. Ooh, okay, biggest regret while on TV. Telling Noah, so he told me he was in love with me and I regret not telling him right away. I waited and then he broke up with me. So I wish I told him right away.

But now you guys are together. Yeah, y'all worked out. So maybe we should be here, Serena, here, Serena. Can I just give insight into this? So they came to me separately. Noah comes to me and is like, hey, I told Abigail that I loved her last night, or falling in love with her, whatever it was.

I don't know if she heard me. And I was like, oh, like she doesn't say anything to me. I'll like, I'll let you know. Abigail comes to me like minutes later, I was like, yeah, so Noah told me he's falling in love with me last night, night I just didn't respond Was so frozen I don't know what everything is meant to be like the way it worked out for you guys is probably how it was supposed to

Work out for you. You know I probably could say myself like public humiliation of game broken up on TV But hey, hey what's meant to be is meant to be I went through the worst TV but hey hey what's meant to be is meant to be I went through the worst oh like like it's fine I'm married now eight years have a baby and I read a save-o it's beautiful best advice for other couples like in general or like on reality TV in general ooh I think just realizing that people are trying their best I think instead of being critical or thinking what can you do better, just understanding you are with this person for a reason

and you love them for a reason and don't look for the worst or criticize things, look for what you love about them and what they bring to the table. Oh my gosh. I love it, I love it. Okay, last question. What's one question you wish I asked you today

and how would you have answered? I wasn't prepared for this. Oh, a question you could have asked me is, would I join the Bandit Pump crew in season 11? The answer is yes. Oh my God, I love it. Okay, really quick, because I do want to be able to like,
