TMZ is reporting that that Matt James, the first ever black Bachelor in history of the ABC franchise, broke up with the woman he chose over old social media posts.
In the middle of production for the latest season of The Bachelor, photos surfaced of contestant Rachel Kirkconnell attending an antebellum themed party and pro-Trump materials and the internet instantly called for her cancellation. Chris Harrison is reportedly not hosting the next season of The Bachelorette over asking the audience to give Kirkconell some “grace.”
James says the two are no longer a couple, even though Kirkconnell apologized for the old photos.
