Ben Higgins ‘Bachelor’ Contestant Becca Tilley Hangs Out With Ashley Iaconetti, Whitney Bischoff Wishes Becca, Her ‘Bestie,’ A Happy Birthday
Did Becca Tilley just reveal whether viewers will see her be the woman The Bachelor star Ben Higgins picks? On Thursday evening, Becca revealed that she spent the day watching TV with Ashley Iaconetti. Besides watching TV, the two may have got together to celebrate Becca’s birthday. A week ago, Whitney Bischoff wished Becca, whom she called her “bestie,” a happy birthday.
Becca tweeted that she and Ashley spent the day mostly on the couch with a break only to get some food.

What were Becca and Ashley doing all that time on the couch? Apparently, they were binge watching Scandal. On Wednesday, Ashley shared a photo of her couch and living room table and wrote that two whole days of binge watching Scandal was coming.

In early October, Us Weekly reported that Becca Tilley, along with Amber James, have returned to the franchise to compete for Ben Higgins. Both Becca and Amber were on the previous season of The Bachelor to compete for Chris Soules. While Amber left relatively early, Becca ended up being the runner-up, coming in second behind Whitney Bischoff.
As with all previous seasons, spoiler website Reality Steve has provided frequent updates on the season’s filming process. His latest spoiler, posted on Thursday, reveals at which stage the show is at right now. Becca’s tweet seems to confirm what Reality Steve has reported in regards to how far she makes it with Ben.
Earlier in the week, the show’s creator and producer, Mike Fleiss, tweeted that the season is shaping up to be the most romantic one yet.
This is shaping up to be the most romantic season — EVER!!!

Ben was the third runner-up on Kaitlyn Bristowe’s season of The Bachelorette. Kaitlyn herself was the third runner-up on Chris Soules’ season of The Bachelor, where she met Becca, Whitney Bischoff, Ashley Iaconetti, and Amber James. While Kaitlyn became the next Bachelorette, Ashley and Amber went on the spinoff Bachelor in Paradise. Both Ashley, despite her efforts with Jared Haibon, and Amber, despite her efforts with Dan Cox, left their time on the spinoff not having found love.
Kaitlyn is currently engaged to her final pick, Shawn Booth. Unfortunately for Chris and Whitney, their engagement didn’t last. Two months after their engagement aired on the season finale, Chris and Whitney announced their split.
As previously reported by the Inquisitr, Chris said in October during an interview that he’s great friends with Whitney. While Chris wouldn’t give any details as to exactly why they broke up, he did give his thoughts on the reports saying that Becca has returned to the show to compete for Ben.
A week ago, Whitney wished Becca a happy birthday. Despite the fact that they both competed for Chris, the two are actually great friends. Whitney even called Becca her “bestie.”

Both Whitney and Becca are also good friends with Kaitlyn. In June, the three women spent the weekend together in Chicago.

Just last weekend, Whitney again got together with Kaitlyn. Joining them was Carly Waddell, who met them on Chris Soules’ The Bachelor season and later joined Ashley Iaconetti on Bachelor in Paradise.

When Ben Higgins’ season of The Bachelor starts airing, perhaps Becca Tilley, Whitney Bischoff, and Kaitlyn Bristowe will all get together for some viewing parties?
