Wells Adams, a familiar face from “The Bachelorette” Season 12 and the fan-favorite bartender on “Bachelor in Paradise,” has shared his insights on fellow contestant Colton Underwood during a recent appearance on the “Bachelor Happy Hour” podcast. Wells, who also competed on Season 3 of “The Traitors,” has been keeping a close eye on the current Season 4, which includes Underwood among its contestants.
Colton Underwood attracted attention this season before being eliminated, following a stint of drama involving other contestants, including Lisa Rinna. Reflecting on Colton’s performance, Wells did not shy away from expressing his views. He remarked that things were not going well for Colton, suggesting that the criticism he faced, especially from Rinna online, had an impact.
Wells elaborated on Colton’s journey since stepping away from the public eye, referencing the difficulties Colton faced after leaving the show with his former partner. He noted that if Colton wishes to reclaim his place in the spotlight, he must confront his past and atone for previous missteps. Wells empathized with the challenge Colton is experiencing but also pointed out that looking ahead, it could turn out to be a formative experience for him.
Wells drew a contrast between Colton’s current trajectory on “The Traitors” and his own experience on the show, mentioning that he hoped for a redemptive narrative for Colton rather than the one currently unfolding. He noted how other contestants, like Tom Sandoval, benefited from the show, experiencing a shift in public perception.
In his candid commentary, Wells expressed genuine concern for Colton while recognizing the potential for growth that difficult experiences can bring. As the season continues to unfold, fans are eager to see how these storylines evolve and how Colton navigates the aftermath of his controversial moments, particularly during the upcoming reunion episode.
