News & Gossip: Mel’s Petty Press Tour and Taylor Frankie Paul Filming Leaks

Author: Claire Fallon, Emma Gray November 20, 2025 Duration: 1:16:02
Now that season 2 of “Golden Bachelor” is safely in the books, Mel and his final choice Peg have been making the rounds. We get into their magazine interviews and Bachelor Happy Hour episodes, all of which are drenched in his trademark defensiveness and disdain for quitters. Plus, we discuss some Bachelor Nation news and gossip, including leaked tidbits and photos about Taylor Frankie Paul’s season of “The Bachelorette,” which is currently filming, and the confirmation of Ashley I.’s role on “The Real Housewives of Rhode Island.” To learn more about listener data and our privacy practices visit: https://www.audacyinc.com/privacy-policy Learn more about your ad choices.

Every week, culture critics Emma Gray and Claire Fallon grab the remote and hit play, diving into the complicated, hilarious, and often absurd world of on-screen romance. Their Love to See It with Emma and Claire podcast is that perfect blend of snark and sincerity, treating both frothy reality dating shows and classic romantic films with the serious-and seriously funny-analysis they deserve. You’ll hear them dissect the latest dramatic rose ceremony on “The Bachelor” one episode, then revisit a formative rom-com the next, asking what these stories really teach us about our own relationships and desires. It’s less a straightforward recap and more a lively conversation between two insightful friends who aren’t afraid to laugh, cringe, or get genuinely moved by the material. They pick apart the juicy details and unpack the weird, sometimes problematic messages buried in our favorite love stories, all while celebrating the sheer joy of the genre. Tuning in feels like pulling up a chair with people who get why this stuff matters, for better or worse, in how we think about love, sex, and connection.
