“Its crazy that so much was kept from me.”
(Rose lovers, it was glorious.)
JENN TRAN:Oh, gosh.

I don’t know.
I honestly was so excited to see all of them.
I wanted to just catch up with everybody.
Jenn reads Sam M. for filth on ‘The Bachelorette: The Men Tell All’.ABC
[Laughs] So it was nice to kind of catch up with all of them.
I went around and gave everybody a hug, checked in on them.
I was excited to have this reunion.

Who do you think had the best glow-up?
Grant has thisBachelorglow-up right now, I think.
Hes got some new swag to him.

When you watched it back, what surprised you the most?
I had no idea that Sam M. and Devin hated each other.
I literally had no idea until I watched it back.

It wasn’t, somebody told me something, or he said, she said.
You have said that you started to see red flags with Sam M. pretty early on.
A large part of that was because I didn’t see him interact with the guys.
I had no idea that the guys didn’t like him.
This guy doesn’t have that much substance going on in terms of our relationship.
I was happy that I got to make that decision for myself.
Yeah, its tough.
I always want to assume the best in people and not the worst.
I had to figure it out for myself, which I’m happy that I did.
One last question about the drama: What was your reaction to seeingAaron give Devin the self-help book?
[Rolls eyes] Oh yeah.
Where was that coming from?
Listen, I have my own opinions about the way in which he left.
It doesn’t seem like you’re here for the right reasons.
You’re maybe here to stir up some trouble as well.
It was so disappointing to see.
Your #huju count is impressively low for a Bachelorette, which I respect.
I assume that was not due to lack of trying from the producers.
Listen, I’m not a girl that likes to be picked up.
I tried, okay?
[Laughs]
Whats the nicest thing you’ve read about yourself online?
So many nice things.
Everybody goes through all those emotions that they just shy away from showing it.
And to be able to make somebody feel less alone in their insecurities, that makes me so happy.
So we have had many, many hard conversations about the kissing, the PDA, all that stuff.
It’s not commonly accepted to see all of that.
Jenn Tran on ‘The Bachelorette’
You had a great wardrobe this season.
Do you have a favorite look from the season?
It was a little sheer, and very sexy.
I loved that dress so, so much.
They were like, You’re going to cancel the cocktail party and you look like that?
[Laughs]
Such a power move.
So I loved that dress.
Was there a moment that you were sure was going to make the bloopers but didn’t?
There are so many funny, funny moments that happened.
It was just the two of us after that.
[Laughs] It just felt so like, Oh wow, what a cute moment.
And another dog comes in and another dog.
We were like, is this planned?
Of the bloopers they did show, which one made you cringe the most?
Jonathon and I stomping in the grapes when I had a blister.
All the blister juices were in the grapes, and he ate one!
I felt so bad!
I just wanted to run over there and hold his hand, poor guy.
But you know what?
He’s going to do so well and have so many great moments.
Now that Grant is the new Bachelor, hell need some advice.
What is something that you wish somebody had told you before you signed on as the Bachelorette?
I wish somebody had told me that there are no rules.
you could literally do anything you want.
I wanted to push my boundaries more, maybe.
What can you tell us about that conversation?
I felt like I was surprised every week being with these guys.
Just when I thought somebody wasn’t really piquing my interest, the next week they did.
So all I said was to keep an open mind and allow yourself to be surprised.
The Bachelorettefinale airs Tuesday, Sept. 3, at 8 p.m. ET/PT on ABC.
