						<p>It’s safe to say things were still tense between <strong><strong>Katie Thurston</strong> </strong>and <strong><strong>Greg Grippo</strong></strong> when they reunited for <em>After the Final Rose</em>. In an extended sneak peek of the<strong> Monday, August 9, finale of the ABC series,</strong> the season 17 Bachelorette confronts her ex.</p>


<p>“I’m devastated,” the 30-year-old former banking manager tells cohosts <strong><strong>Kaitlyn Bristowe </strong></strong>and<strong><strong> Tayshia Adams</strong> in the teaser released on Monday.</strong></p>
<p>After Greg, 28, says, “I emptied my heart out to you,” Katie fires back, “I don’t think you know what love is.”</p>

<p>“I am in love with you. You just make me the happiest I’ve ever been. I see it with you. This is real to me,” Greg said after opening about the loss of his father. “I haven’t been this vulnerable with anybody in my life.”</p>


<p>Katie subsequently replied, “I just love looking at you,” which prompted Greg to question his feelings and quit the show.</p>
<p>“I felt like I was telling that to a stranger. … This whole entire time has felt like Katie to me, and that night, I was thinking that I was expressing my love to my future wife, and you didn’t even feel it,” he said. “As much as it hurts me, I’ve reached my breaking point with this. I gave you everything. I really hope you find something.”</p>

After the episode aired, <strong>Katie implied that she felt like Greg was gaslighting her during their breakup.</strong></p>

		<p>“Regardless of where you stand, we are all talking about it,” Katie wrote on Saturday, August 7, as <strong>Bachelor Nation continued to debate their split.</strong> “And that’s most important. Learning. Growing. Understanding.”</p>

<p>“Defeated and on the bathroom floor after a devastating breakup, can Katie pick herself back up and continue with the two remaining men she is also falling in love with?” the official press release for the three-hour finale reads. “Later in <em>After the Final Rose</em>, Kaitlyn and Tayshia are joined onstage by Katie and her final three as they try to make sense of what happened in New Mexico, including a tense confrontation with Greg about his sudden departure. Did Katie leave with the love she was looking for, or did she go home alone?”</p>
<p>The three-hour season 17 finale of <em>The Bachelorette</em> airs on ABC Monday, August 9, at 8 p.m. ET.</p>
