Bachelor Nation’s jaw is on the floor — and so is Clayton Echard’s! The season 26 Bachelor got flirty with ex Gabby Windey after she dropped steamy snaps in the gown she intended to wear for the finale.
“Cl*yton was supposed to propose to me in this dress,” the 32-year-old Dancing With the Stars alum captioned three pics in a black high-neck dress with an open back.
Echard, 29, was quick to respond in the comments section, writing: “Bring the dress to Scottsdale this weekend.”
Alongside Rachel Recchia and Susie Evans, Windey was one of the former football player’s final three on the 2022 season of The Bachelor. Echard made waves at the time when he slept with Windey and Recchia, 27, during the overnight dates before Evans, 29, informed him that was a dealbreaker for her. He subsequently informed the contestants he was in love with all three of them.
After initially convincing Windey and Recchia to stay in the competition, Echard admitted he had the strongest feelings for Evans. At the final rose ceremony, the wedding videographer returned but opted not to continue a romance with Echard. They later reconnected off screen and dated for several months, calling it quits in September 2022.
“Looking back at it all — in those moments, I believed it. I really did believe I was in love with them when I was there, on the show,” Echard said on Us Weekly’s “Here for the Right Reasons” podcast after the March 2022 finale. “But as I’ve now taken the time to reflect and look back, I believe that I got to the point where I was falling in love with everybody, but then it got to the point where I was only in love with Susie. [Now] I only think you can be in love with one person. You can fall for many, but you can only be in love with one. And
