On last week’s episode of The Bachelor, Jessenia Cruz accused MJ Snyder of contributing to the “toxic environment” in the house. She told Matt James about her concerns, and Matt pulled Jessenia and MJ aside to hash things out once and for all. The conversation will play out during the show’s Feb. 8 episode, where Matt will try to get to the bottom of what’s really going on.
Considering Matt previously sent home Victoria Larson and Anna Redman for also causing drama, MJ is weary of her fate on the show, and pissed at Jessenia for calling her out. “I am furious,” she told Jessenia on the Feb. 1 episode. “You should be embarrassed because we are here because of your actions right now.” Ahead of the final showdown, here’s more to know about MJ:
