Kaitlyn Bristowe isn’t mad and embarrassed that Ashley Iaconetti called her screaming and crying about Jared Haibon while filming the second season of Bachelor in Paradise . On Sunday, as the latest episode of the spin-off show aired, Kaitlyn declared her love for Ashley.
Kaitlyn tweeted that she loves Ashley , even if she does cry a lot.
I haven’t watched BIP. Will be binge watching tonight. All I know is I love @ashleyiaco for who she is. Tears and all. My thoughts tomorrow

On Sunday night’s episode, Ashley got her dream of a future with Jared crushed. Despite having given her a rose at the last rose ceremony and kissing her, Jared finally decided that Ashley wasn’t the woman for him and decided to tell her definitely that there was no future for them. He outright told her that she should go for other guys.
“I don’t think it’s fair for you to not at least try to experience things with other guys,” he told Ashley. Ashley snapped that “that’s not going to happen.” Jared also admitted that he still had feelings for Kaitlyn.
“I don’t know what kind of connection or chemistry we have. It’s hard because I love getting to know you and I feel like we get along really well but I just don’t know if our chemistry is what I’m looking for. I think there’s a part of me that isn’t here but I think a main reason for that is because, you know…”
“Kaitlyn,” Ashley finished for him.
Ashley is then shown calling Kaitlyn.
“Kaitlyn! What the f**k did you do to Jared? [Kaitlyn: ‘What do you mean?’] He’s obsessed with you! [Kaitlyn: ‘What?!’] He can’t stop thinking about you! [Kaitlyn: ‘Well can I help?’] It’s too late. He can’t get over you and he’s completely consumed and it sucks for me!”
Kaitlyn Bristowe and Ashley Iaconetti both competed for Chris Soules on The Bachelor . After coming in third during Chris’ season, Kaitlyn became the star of The Bachelorette , where she met Jared Haibon. Despite Jared’s strong feelings for her and their easygoing connection, Kaitlyn sent Jared home at a rose ceremony prior to the hometown dates. Kaitlyn is currently engaged to her final pick from the show, Shawn Booth.
Ashley took to Twitter to explain why she she called Kaitlyn after Jared dumped her.
It’s very odd to be friends with someone who has “dated” the guy you’re “dating.” I wanted to call my friend who knew him in that way.

Ashley added that she had an urge to talk to Kaitlyn .
It’s hard to explain what went through my head when I called @kaitlynbristowe , but at that highly emotional moment I wanted to talk to her.

Ashley also expressed frustration over how she was portrayed. She made clear that she wasn’t into Jared just because of his looks . The show showed Ashley moaning about Jared’s perfect face as she wept over the breakup.
I really wish they would have shown me talking about Jared’s wonderful heart & personality more and not always gushing over his appearance.
