On The Show For The Right Reasons?
On the Wednesday, October 8 episode, Nicolle whispered to one of the contestants, “I told myself from the beginning, I’m not dating Mel. I’m dating America,” as quoted by Us Weekly.
The scene then cuts to the 64-year-old proudly showing her fellow contestants how to become influencers. “We’re going to have Housewives status,” she said.
It was these very comments that had some wondering whether Nicolle was there for the right intentions. Some of them made it clear that they were there for Mel, and Mel only.
Slamming The Season 1 Contestants
Things got even worse when Nicolle criticized the Season 1 cast during a photo shoot. “I’m sorry, but the last cast, they weren’t so great looking…” she said.

Shockingly, Nicolle went on to share her plans for social media dominance. “My Instagram is mostly just healthy, plant-based recipes, but I would love to become a spokesperson for mid-life, beauty products, or health-oriented products,” she said.
Bachelor Nation Fans React
Suddenly, Mel isn’t the most controversial person on the show.
That’s not all that happened. Nicolle also took credit for the lemon bars that several cast members baked for Mel. Unsurprisingly, her comments got backlash on social media.
Some Bachelor Nation fans want her off the show. One fan wrote on X: “I need a room with these two after her rude comments.” They included headshots of Kathy Swarts and Susan Noles from Gerry’s season.
Another fan posted: “This is the most unlikeable woman in Golden Bachelor history.”
Someone else commented: “I hope this group of ‘not attractive ladies’ drag her ass on social media.”
Unfortunately, Gerri Flowers was one of the four women who went home on Wednesday’s episode. Nicolle got the final rose despite being the villain of the mansion. Fans are advocating for Gerri to become the next Golden Bachelorette.
