On this week’s episode of The Bachelor, 26-year-old Christina’s experience has taken a turn for the worse.

During a pool party, Brianna Thorbourne decided to leave the show after a tender chat with Zach, 26, who told her he felt no connection between them.

But before she left, Brianna dropped a bombshell on The Bachelor.

She claimed that Christina made the other women in the house unsafe and upset.

Zach was quick to confront Christina about these rumors, but she denied being the show’s villain.

“It would be a mistake to believe that. It would be a real bummer, it really would be,” she urged.

The mother-of-one broke down in tears as she begged: “It’s not me at all. That doesn’t make any sense to me at all.”

When Zach walked away and told her he had to reconsider things, Christina was left alone on the stairs, sobbing loudly.

But some accused the candidate of crocodile tears.

“Every time these girls get caught as bad guys, the water company comes. Send her home,” wrote one angry viewer on Twitter.

Another asked: “Anyone else spying fake tears?”

“She shed tears of compassion at the waterworks,” suggested a third.

SAY GOODBYE

Later that night at the rose ceremony, Zach had to make a difficult decision.

Despite the rumors about Christina, he and she have already developed a strong bond during their single date over the past week.

But Zach decided his doubts were too strong for the Tennessee to be his potential fiancée.

Christina took her elimination by the chin and told him, “I see.”

“I wish you the best,” he replied.

But in a confessional, Christina revealed how upset she really was about going home.

“Right now it just hurts. Zach blew me away, I expected to like him but not as much as I do.”

She continued, “I was myself and I hope he finds his person. Unfortunately, I’m not.”

In the next episode of The Bachelor, Zach and the remaining contestants will travel to the Bahamas.

“That’s where deep feelings come in,” the lead actor said in a preview clip.

The Bachelor airs Mondays at 8 p.m. on ABC.
