“For something like that to be broadcasted on a show that is in millions of homes, was really special.”
That was what Tayshia Adams – the most recent Bachelorette – told Elise Gasbarrino and Aleah Balas about contestant Ben Smith‘s mental health confession on Let’s Talk About.
Though Tayshia ended the show engaged to New Yorker Zac Clarke, her season of The Bachelorette is well-known for discussing important social issues such as the Black Lives Matter movement, which Tayshia and contestant Ivan Hall shared an intimate conversation about.
As the first biracial lead on the show, the bride-to-be became a shining example of authenticity on reality TV. A proud daughter of a Black father and Latina mother, she is proud of her heritage on both sides.
