Yosef Aborady is going to get a piece of Clare Crawley’s mind on the Oct. 27 episode of The Bachelorette. “During the cocktail party, as the men await their fate at the rose ceremony, Yosef’s harsh attack on Clare’s choices gets her immediate and courageous reaction,” the episode description reads. His behavior stems from last week’s group date, where several of the men had to strip down naked in a game of strip dodgeball.
This won’t be the first time that Yosef brings the drama this season, though. During the premiere episode, he was called out by another contestant, Tyler C., who accused Yosef of shooting his shot with other women on Instagram before coming on the show. As viewers know, filming on Clare’s season was postponed due to the coronavirus, and Tyler claimed that Yosef was sliding into girls’ DMs in the months between his casting and when production actually (finally) began. He confronted Yosef with this information during the premiere, and tensions rose between them. Get to know more about Yosef below.
