<p>“So much love and gratitude for every single person that has validated my feels on this wild paradise journey,” the event planner, 33, captioned a sunset photo on Instagram after the Tuesday, September 14, episode aired. “I see you, I feel you, and the love has been unmatched 💗 Cheers to letting go of the past ! Let the good times roll 🍾 #bachelornation y’all know what’s up 🙌🏾.”</p>
<p>Fellow season 7 cast member <strong><strong>Becca Kufrin</strong></strong> commented, “I’d give you a rose every single day baby. Love you ❤️.”</p>
<p>Natasha also received support from Bachelor Nation’s <strong><strong>Elyse Dehlbom</strong></strong>, who wrote, “You my dear are a queen in every way! 👑 Applauding you for the courage it took to go through this experience and navigate it in such a graceful way.”</p>
<p>The season 24 <em>Bachelor</em> alum was <strong>caught in the middle of a messy love triangle</strong> with Brendan, 31, and Pieper, 24, who were <strong>accused of making a plan to meet up on the beach</strong> in Mexico after sparking a romance before filming. <em>Us Weekly</em> confirmed in June that the pair were an item, and during Tuesday’s episode, their alleged scheme was foiled.</p>

		<p>“This environment, I guess, isn’t where we wanna be at this particular moment,” the Massachusetts native told the rest of the cast <strong>as he and Pieper prepared to leave</strong> before the rose ceremony. “I think you all know, and I am well aware of, this is the girl I wanna be with, and I feel comfortable in saying that, so I appreciate all you guys, but I’m gonna leave with her and we’re gonna do that on our own terms.”</p>
<p>When the remaining contestants gathered together to hand out their roses, bartender <strong><strong>Wells Adams</strong></strong> gave Natasha a second chance to find love.</p>


<p>One week before their exits, both Brendan and the season 25 <em>Bachelor</em> alum took to social media to address the drama. “After taking time to begin to process the events that unfolded over the past few days, I have realized I was wrong on so many different level[s],” Brendan wrote in a lengthy Instagram Story, specifically apologizing to Natasha for his “actions [that] triggered certain feelings and emotions.”</p>
<p>Pieper, for her part, told <em>Us</em> exclusively that <strong>she’s “not an extension of Brendan and his actions”</strong> and doesn’t “condone dishonest behavior” from anyone.</p>
<p>“I didn’t go into <em>Paradise</em> with the intention of hurting anyone, nor would I ever want to be the reason why someone had a bad experience,” she said in a statement. “I went in excited to see a guy that I had connected with and liked before the show started filming, and was looking forward to seeing if that connection would grow into something more. … I am truly sorry for any hurt that I caused her and <strong>hope that I get the opportunity to speak to her soon</strong> and make things right.”</p>


<p>More recently, the Oregon native <strong>gave <em>Us</em> an update on where she and Brendan stand</strong> after their dramatic turns on the ABC show.</p>
<p>“We’re working through things,” she exclusively revealed at the PrettyLittleThing x Teyana Taylor NYFW Show on September 9. “This obviously isn’t something that’s super healthy for a relationship either, so it kind of is what it is. Every day, [we’re] taking it day by day.”</p>
<p><em>Bachelor in Paradise</em> airs on ABC Tuesdays at 8 p.m. ET.</p>
