We are going to 5 00:00:15,400 --> 00:00:19,639 Speaker 1: in this second half talk about their future and where 6 00:00:19,640 --> 00:00:22,440 Speaker 1: they see themselves in a few years together and how 7 00:00:22,680 --> 00:00:26,680 Speaker 1: they make each other feel better when they're down. When 8 00:00:26,680 --> 00:00:29,480 Speaker 1: we last spoke with you, Clayton, it was right coming 9 00:00:29,560 --> 00:00:32,440 Speaker 1: up to the end of your finale. It was probably 10 00:00:32,440 --> 00:00:36,400 Speaker 1: the roughest week during your season for you personally. Um, 11 00:00:36,440 --> 00:00:38,760 Speaker 1: you're in a weird limbo space where you're like, hey, 12 00:00:38,920 --> 00:00:41,360 Speaker 1: I'm kind of happy. I'm really happy, but I can't 13 00:00:41,360 --> 00:00:44,920 Speaker 1: talk about it yet. All this criticism, and you know, Susie, 14 00:00:44,920 --> 00:00:48,280 Speaker 1: you're sitting there seeing him get this criticism based on 15 00:00:48,320 --> 00:00:51,680 Speaker 1: your scenario, not being able to speak out on it either. Uh. 16 00:00:51,720 --> 00:00:54,560 Speaker 1: And I remember there that conversation Clayton was the only 17 00:00:54,560 --> 00:00:57,720 Speaker 1: thing I said, um, because one of the producers are 18 00:00:57,760 --> 00:00:58,880 Speaker 1: talked to me about it was like, Hey, this is 19 00:00:58,880 --> 00:01:01,080 Speaker 1: gonna get better, Like it's gonna suck for a bit, 20 00:01:01,280 --> 00:01:04,120 Speaker 1: but like this too shall pass. I don't know how 21 00:01:04,120 --> 00:01:05,640 Speaker 1: it was going to work back then was this too 22 00:01:05,640 --> 00:01:07,640 Speaker 1: shall pass? So for the two of you, how have 23 00:01:07,720 --> 00:01:11,320 Speaker 1: you worked together on helping it pass and moving on now? 24 00:01:11,400 --> 00:01:13,280 Speaker 1: And then? If you don't mind Susie within that even 25 00:01:13,280 --> 00:01:15,400 Speaker 1: talking about that season of life where you weren't able 26 00:01:15,440 --> 00:01:21,240 Speaker 1: to kind of support Clayton publicly. Yeah, Um, I guess 27 00:01:21,280 --> 00:01:25,520 Speaker 1: to address that that specific time period, it was really 28 00:01:25,560 --> 00:01:28,560 Speaker 1: tough because when we were on the show, a conversation 29 00:01:28,640 --> 00:01:32,760 Speaker 1: we had um after it was the day that I 30 00:01:33,040 --> 00:01:36,119 Speaker 1: briefly met his parents. Um, we came outside and at 31 00:01:36,120 --> 00:01:38,800 Speaker 1: that point I felt in my heart that Clayton and 32 00:01:38,800 --> 00:01:41,320 Speaker 1: I were not going to be together like ever. Um, 33 00:01:41,360 --> 00:01:43,080 Speaker 1: I really didn't think that we were going to get 34 00:01:43,120 --> 00:01:45,520 Speaker 1: back together. But I did love him as a person, 35 00:01:45,560 --> 00:01:47,400 Speaker 1: Like at that point, I had loved him as a person, 36 00:01:48,040 --> 00:01:50,440 Speaker 1: you know, several weeks before that, I knew the type 37 00:01:50,480 --> 00:01:52,480 Speaker 1: of man that he was. He was a good person, 38 00:01:52,520 --> 00:01:55,200 Speaker 1: had a really good heart. The way he treated everybody 39 00:01:55,240 --> 00:01:58,760 Speaker 1: around him was with kind and compassion like every single 40 00:01:58,760 --> 00:02:01,800 Speaker 1: individual he was and you know, invested in learning about 41 00:02:01,840 --> 00:02:05,280 Speaker 1: and talking to and addressing politely like he's I could 42 00:02:05,320 --> 00:02:06,840 Speaker 1: tell that he was a good person, But at that 43 00:02:06,880 --> 00:02:09,440 Speaker 1: point I didn't think we're going to be together, and 44 00:02:09,480 --> 00:02:12,480 Speaker 1: I remember saying to him, like, I am going to 45 00:02:12,560 --> 00:02:14,680 Speaker 1: have your back because this is not going to be good, 46 00:02:15,200 --> 00:02:18,600 Speaker 1: but I will like speak out and like I I 47 00:02:18,639 --> 00:02:21,680 Speaker 1: will have your back because this is gonna be bad. 48 00:02:21,760 --> 00:02:23,720 Speaker 1: Like I remember just being like, this is not good. 49 00:02:23,840 --> 00:02:26,400 Speaker 1: But I know your heart and I know you're a 50 00:02:26,440 --> 00:02:30,880 Speaker 1: good person, but I also I know this is going 51 00:02:30,919 --> 00:02:33,640 Speaker 1: to be hard. But because we did end up getting 52 00:02:33,639 --> 00:02:37,120 Speaker 1: back together after the season, I was not able to 53 00:02:37,200 --> 00:02:40,920 Speaker 1: be public about that, like had that truly been the ending, 54 00:02:40,919 --> 00:02:44,600 Speaker 1: where like that was truly goodbye. Um, I mean we 55 00:02:44,639 --> 00:02:46,280 Speaker 1: probably would have had to reckon sole for me to 56 00:02:46,280 --> 00:02:48,600 Speaker 1: truly feel that way, because you did you apologize for 57 00:02:48,880 --> 00:02:51,639 Speaker 1: how that night went and stuff, and I apologize as well. 58 00:02:51,680 --> 00:02:56,200 Speaker 1: But um, I mean yeah, I think had we not 59 00:02:56,280 --> 00:02:58,120 Speaker 1: been together, I would have been able to publicly be 60 00:02:58,200 --> 00:03:02,160 Speaker 1: like you, guys, like there is so much more to everything, 61 00:03:02,520 --> 00:03:05,400 Speaker 1: and I'm telling you he is a good person with 62 00:03:05,440 --> 00:03:09,720 Speaker 1: a good heart and this was a really messy, challenging, 63 00:03:09,840 --> 00:03:14,360 Speaker 1: confusing situation and like please have please have empathy for 64 00:03:14,480 --> 00:03:16,080 Speaker 1: him in this moment, like we need not need to 65 00:03:16,120 --> 00:03:20,560 Speaker 1: like hurt him or cancel him or whatever was happening, 66 00:03:20,600 --> 00:03:22,400 Speaker 1: Like so many people were so mad at both of us. 67 00:03:22,440 --> 00:03:23,960 Speaker 1: To be honest, so many people were mad at both 68 00:03:24,040 --> 00:03:27,959 Speaker 1: of us. But I couldn't say anything because yeah, I 69 00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:29,800 Speaker 1: was with him at that once it was airing, I 70 00:03:29,880 --> 00:03:32,840 Speaker 1: was back together with him. Um, So that was really 71 00:03:32,840 --> 00:03:34,800 Speaker 1: hard for me because all I could do is be 72 00:03:34,840 --> 00:03:39,320 Speaker 1: there in person for him and be the best you know, 73 00:03:39,440 --> 00:03:41,840 Speaker 1: support that I could for that. But publicly, yeah, I 74 00:03:41,840 --> 00:03:44,440 Speaker 1: mean I feel like I probably I would publicly defend anybody, 75 00:03:44,680 --> 00:03:47,160 Speaker 1: even half the villains. And I'm like, we're all people, 76 00:03:47,400 --> 00:03:49,800 Speaker 1: like you know, like Okay, they're a villain, but like 77 00:03:49,880 --> 00:03:52,440 Speaker 1: it's a human being. We're all humans, and like everyone's 78 00:03:52,440 --> 00:03:54,160 Speaker 1: a villain at some point in their life. We've all 79 00:03:54,200 --> 00:03:57,160 Speaker 1: done bad things at some point in our life or 80 00:03:57,200 --> 00:03:59,640 Speaker 1: things that if somebody is looking in on your life 81 00:03:59,640 --> 00:04:02,000 Speaker 1: with the camera lens you didn't know it, you'd probably 82 00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:05,880 Speaker 1: be ashamed of, you know. Definitely, what are little things 83 00:04:05,920 --> 00:04:07,680 Speaker 1: that you do to make each other feel better in 84 00:04:07,760 --> 00:04:09,760 Speaker 1: moments like that, like even if it's giving them an 85 00:04:09,800 --> 00:04:17,919 Speaker 1: ice cream Sunday. Come on, Jess, I hope Jesse listens 86 00:04:17,960 --> 00:04:22,400 Speaker 1: to this. Come on, girl, Uh, you know, I think 87 00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:25,760 Speaker 1: it's just trying to pay attention to I like to 88 00:04:25,760 --> 00:04:28,920 Speaker 1: compile a list of my phone. Uh, just like when 89 00:04:29,000 --> 00:04:31,440 Speaker 1: she says she likes something putting in in there. And 90 00:04:31,480 --> 00:04:33,839 Speaker 1: then if I ever feel that there's a rainy day 91 00:04:34,760 --> 00:04:37,000 Speaker 1: and I can do something, then it's then that's when 92 00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:40,520 Speaker 1: I go grab something from the store. Or we went 93 00:04:40,600 --> 00:04:43,000 Speaker 1: on like a pic picnic date on the beach, just 94 00:04:43,120 --> 00:04:44,800 Speaker 1: just like a month and a half ago, I think, 95 00:04:44,960 --> 00:04:47,720 Speaker 1: or maybe a little longer, but uh yeah, just being 96 00:04:47,760 --> 00:04:50,680 Speaker 1: able to like have things stored and ready to go 97 00:04:50,960 --> 00:04:54,720 Speaker 1: because you know those days will come. So that's I 98 00:04:54,760 --> 00:04:57,640 Speaker 1: guess how I do. It was just, yeah, just keeping 99 00:04:57,720 --> 00:05:00,040 Speaker 1: notes because I think there's so much going on the 100 00:05:00,120 --> 00:05:02,080 Speaker 1: world and trying to wrap your head around every little 101 00:05:02,120 --> 00:05:04,360 Speaker 1: thing someone says. But if you're intentional about it, then 102 00:05:04,560 --> 00:05:06,800 Speaker 1: that can go a long way, just by saying, hey, 103 00:05:06,839 --> 00:05:10,600 Speaker 1: I got this four year centator having a tough day. Yeah, 104 00:05:10,760 --> 00:05:14,560 Speaker 1: I think for me with you, I think there's been 105 00:05:14,560 --> 00:05:16,559 Speaker 1: a lot of days where you've been really down about 106 00:05:16,640 --> 00:05:19,080 Speaker 1: like the future, and you've been like, I don't know 107 00:05:19,160 --> 00:05:21,480 Speaker 1: what this is gonna look like, I don't know how 108 00:05:21,600 --> 00:05:23,840 Speaker 1: this is going to work out. And I think the 109 00:05:23,960 --> 00:05:25,920 Speaker 1: one way that I've been able, at least from My 110 00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:28,279 Speaker 1: perspective to support you is that I'm like, I literally 111 00:05:28,320 --> 00:05:32,920 Speaker 1: believe in you, Like I I see no future in 112 00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:35,919 Speaker 1: which you're not you know, achieving everything that you dreamt 113 00:05:35,960 --> 00:05:39,320 Speaker 1: of or whatever. So I think just providing that support 114 00:05:39,360 --> 00:05:45,479 Speaker 1: and reassurance to like, you know, reinforce your self esteem 115 00:05:45,520 --> 00:05:47,719 Speaker 1: that you that you do have, but like when you're 116 00:05:47,760 --> 00:05:50,800 Speaker 1: struggling in that, just being able to be there and 117 00:05:50,880 --> 00:05:53,680 Speaker 1: say that I believe in you like that's I think 118 00:05:53,800 --> 00:05:57,400 Speaker 1: the biggest thing or I do. I've done like a 119 00:05:57,440 --> 00:05:59,840 Speaker 1: surprise day night and fun little things like that too. 120 00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:02,440 Speaker 1: It I think that's the biggest thing I can provide 121 00:06:02,480 --> 00:06:07,400 Speaker 1: in those moments, such a good Yeah, that's that's so powerful. 122 00:06:07,960 --> 00:06:10,280 Speaker 1: Um My wife and I just learned that about each 123 00:06:10,320 --> 00:06:12,640 Speaker 1: other right now. So for the two of you where 124 00:06:12,680 --> 00:06:14,200 Speaker 1: you're at, you know, we've been together a little longer 125 00:06:14,360 --> 00:06:17,360 Speaker 1: three years, but just for her to tell me she 126 00:06:17,480 --> 00:06:20,840 Speaker 1: believes in me, it means the world to me, Like 127 00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:23,440 Speaker 1: it changes everything because I know, no matter what we're 128 00:06:23,440 --> 00:06:37,640 Speaker 1: going together and we've had our rough times, everybody's asking 129 00:06:37,680 --> 00:06:41,000 Speaker 1: you the same uh questions, when are you get engaged? 130 00:06:41,080 --> 00:06:42,840 Speaker 1: What's the major wedding going to look like? All those 131 00:06:42,920 --> 00:06:45,520 Speaker 1: things I want to ask in a different way, Uh, 132 00:06:45,640 --> 00:06:49,120 Speaker 1: speaking of future, where are you two at, Like, how 133 00:06:49,200 --> 00:06:51,360 Speaker 1: are you two working towards that? What are you doing 134 00:06:51,480 --> 00:06:53,880 Speaker 1: in your life to get to a place where you 135 00:06:54,000 --> 00:06:56,080 Speaker 1: feel like, hey, we're ready for this next step or 136 00:06:56,440 --> 00:06:59,280 Speaker 1: maybe you never already, But what does your futures look 137 00:06:59,360 --> 00:07:05,120 Speaker 1: like right now? Uh? Yeah, I think for us, we 138 00:07:05,279 --> 00:07:10,480 Speaker 1: look at immediate future. And so her lease is ending 139 00:07:10,560 --> 00:07:13,320 Speaker 1: in the next couple of months, and we started to 140 00:07:13,440 --> 00:07:16,880 Speaker 1: look at places to move to. And I think right 141 00:07:16,920 --> 00:07:21,360 Speaker 1: now the topic is Phoenix, Arizona. I have my brothers 142 00:07:21,400 --> 00:07:25,000 Speaker 1: out there, my other um, it's just my other brothers 143 00:07:25,080 --> 00:07:28,760 Speaker 1: close by, and then yeah, my family. I guess if 144 00:07:28,800 --> 00:07:31,120 Speaker 1: we're all in the same area, maybe my parents will 145 00:07:31,160 --> 00:07:33,160 Speaker 1: end up moving there one day. But it's it's also 146 00:07:33,240 --> 00:07:37,000 Speaker 1: a great spot, very conveniently allocated to a lot of 147 00:07:37,040 --> 00:07:41,040 Speaker 1: different things. So we're, yeah, thinking about just buying a place. 148 00:07:41,440 --> 00:07:44,480 Speaker 1: Hopefully the market cools off a little bit. But that's 149 00:07:44,560 --> 00:07:47,360 Speaker 1: kind of the immediate future is to move in. We 150 00:07:47,560 --> 00:07:49,920 Speaker 1: already moved in together, but to move now next chapter 151 00:07:49,960 --> 00:07:52,600 Speaker 1: of our life into something a little bit more than 152 00:07:52,720 --> 00:07:56,520 Speaker 1: just a small, little temporary apartment, So that would be it. 153 00:07:56,600 --> 00:08:00,120 Speaker 1: And then from there. I don't know if we've just 154 00:08:00,240 --> 00:08:02,880 Speaker 1: like we just we see all the questions being asked, 155 00:08:02,920 --> 00:08:05,640 Speaker 1: and we just, you know, say when we're already like 156 00:08:05,760 --> 00:08:09,120 Speaker 1: when whenever that feels right, and I don't I don't 157 00:08:09,160 --> 00:08:11,960 Speaker 1: think there needs to really be a defendive timeline. I 158 00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:13,960 Speaker 1: think we're just like, hey, when we feel that the 159 00:08:14,080 --> 00:08:18,560 Speaker 1: timing is right, then we'll both know. Clayton have to 160 00:08:18,600 --> 00:08:20,720 Speaker 1: ask before we let you guys go, how do you 161 00:08:20,880 --> 00:08:27,480 Speaker 1: feel about there being two bachelorettes? I just I hope 162 00:08:27,480 --> 00:08:31,360 Speaker 1: it goes really well because I would think if I 163 00:08:31,440 --> 00:08:33,200 Speaker 1: had to put myself in their shoes, as I try 164 00:08:33,280 --> 00:08:36,280 Speaker 1: to do now more more so than anything with any situation, 165 00:08:37,000 --> 00:08:39,920 Speaker 1: if I was in their shoes, I think my biggest 166 00:08:39,960 --> 00:08:44,520 Speaker 1: concern would be not getting being jealous or envious or 167 00:08:44,600 --> 00:08:48,679 Speaker 1: comparing myself. I think that's one of the kind of 168 00:08:48,880 --> 00:08:50,959 Speaker 1: I would imagine one of the toughest challenges. And I 169 00:08:51,000 --> 00:08:52,480 Speaker 1: don't want to I don't want to speak for those two, 170 00:08:52,840 --> 00:08:55,079 Speaker 1: but I just know me personally. If I was with 171 00:08:55,240 --> 00:08:59,000 Speaker 1: another bachelor, I think that would be something that inevitably 172 00:08:59,280 --> 00:09:02,880 Speaker 1: if one person was getting more attention, and you would 173 00:09:02,880 --> 00:09:07,160 Speaker 1: start to compare yourself naturally, I think so. I hope 174 00:09:07,160 --> 00:09:08,599 Speaker 1: it really works out for the two of them. I 175 00:09:08,640 --> 00:09:12,079 Speaker 1: think they're both too really mature individuals, and so I 176 00:09:12,720 --> 00:09:14,959 Speaker 1: hope that they team up and they and do it 177 00:09:15,040 --> 00:09:19,200 Speaker 1: together and don't allow those negative thoughts to creep in. Uh. 178 00:09:19,679 --> 00:09:21,640 Speaker 1: But it's it's gonna be challenging, it's gonna it's gonna 179 00:09:21,640 --> 00:09:24,320 Speaker 1: definitely push them to their limits to grow as individuals, 180 00:09:24,400 --> 00:09:27,719 Speaker 1: to really love themselves, because you have to if you're 181 00:09:27,720 --> 00:09:29,199 Speaker 1: ever in a situation like that, I would have to 182 00:09:29,240 --> 00:09:31,720 Speaker 1: imagine you have to love yourself so that you are 183 00:09:32,160 --> 00:09:35,040 Speaker 1: thinking positively and not allowing those negative thoughts to creep 184 00:09:35,120 --> 00:09:38,400 Speaker 1: in and potentially affect you to the point where you 185 00:09:38,520 --> 00:09:41,839 Speaker 1: can't navigate that journey to the best your ability. And 186 00:09:41,960 --> 00:09:45,000 Speaker 1: this last question to both of you. They keep saying, 187 00:09:45,400 --> 00:09:48,719 Speaker 1: the producers the advertisements that they're not going to be 188 00:09:48,800 --> 00:09:51,640 Speaker 1: pitted against each other. Do you see anyway and which 189 00:09:51,679 --> 00:09:55,080 Speaker 1: that could happen? I don't think so, I mean doesn't. 190 00:09:55,280 --> 00:09:56,920 Speaker 1: I don't think it seems like it at all based 191 00:09:57,000 --> 00:10:02,280 Speaker 1: on any of the h you know, like not spoilers, 192 00:10:02,360 --> 00:10:05,800 Speaker 1: the teasers or you know, the social media. Um, it 193 00:10:05,840 --> 00:10:10,400 Speaker 1: seems to be like like the brand is two best friends. 194 00:10:10,679 --> 00:10:13,719 Speaker 1: So I mean, I don't think that's the attention. I 195 00:10:13,800 --> 00:10:16,040 Speaker 1: don't think that. I don't think either of those girls 196 00:10:16,080 --> 00:10:17,760 Speaker 1: are really like that, So I think it'd be really 197 00:10:17,800 --> 00:10:21,280 Speaker 1: hard to do that. Yeah, I would just say the 198 00:10:21,400 --> 00:10:23,840 Speaker 1: only way would be if they both happen to catch 199 00:10:23,880 --> 00:10:26,720 Speaker 1: feelings for the same guy, and and if that guy 200 00:10:26,880 --> 00:10:29,160 Speaker 1: happens to be torn what he likes both of them equally. 201 00:10:29,200 --> 00:10:32,240 Speaker 1: I mean, it would be a perfect storm in my opinion, 202 00:10:32,320 --> 00:10:35,040 Speaker 1: for that to happen. But I suppose that's the only 203 00:10:35,080 --> 00:10:39,600 Speaker 1: way where it could potentially become troublesome. So I think 204 00:10:39,640 --> 00:10:42,040 Speaker 1: for everyone, for their sake, for everyone waiting, Like I'm 205 00:10:42,080 --> 00:10:45,480 Speaker 1: sure people do what love drama, there'll be some individuals 206 00:10:45,520 --> 00:10:47,439 Speaker 1: I won't want to see that, But to me, that 207 00:10:47,480 --> 00:10:49,360 Speaker 1: would have to be a perfect storm. I think outside 208 00:10:49,400 --> 00:10:51,800 Speaker 1: of that, I imagine that those two will handle it 209 00:10:51,880 --> 00:10:55,000 Speaker 1: really well. Jason Tarty brought up a great point just 210 00:10:55,120 --> 00:10:57,640 Speaker 1: to kind of close this thought when he was on 211 00:10:57,679 --> 00:10:59,400 Speaker 1: the podcast a week ago. He's like, you know, I 212 00:10:59,440 --> 00:11:01,800 Speaker 1: think it's going to be hardest post show, as you 213 00:11:01,840 --> 00:11:05,200 Speaker 1: guys kind of probably can imagine when like Instagram followers 214 00:11:05,559 --> 00:11:09,760 Speaker 1: and add deals and appearances and conversations. Who likes who better? 215 00:11:10,120 --> 00:11:13,120 Speaker 1: He's like, I'm really interesting how they navigate the post 216 00:11:13,160 --> 00:11:15,600 Speaker 1: show part of this too. Uh. And to see how 217 00:11:15,679 --> 00:11:18,640 Speaker 1: they continue to be friends and bond and support each other. 218 00:11:19,400 --> 00:11:22,719 Speaker 1: Uh after the show is done. Well.

I mean, you know, time goes on, 225 00:11:38,480 --> 00:11:41,360 Speaker 1: things fade, but uh, if you two were to get 226 00:11:41,440 --> 00:11:47,280 Speaker 1: married tomorrow, would anybody from your season be invited? I would. 227 00:11:47,600 --> 00:11:49,600 Speaker 1: I mean I would say open invitation anyone that wants 228 00:11:49,640 --> 00:11:53,760 Speaker 1: to come party coming. But I think probably my my 229 00:11:53,880 --> 00:11:57,120 Speaker 1: closest friend from the show like that I've been able 230 00:11:57,120 --> 00:11:59,240 Speaker 1: to spend time with and see it has been Marlina. 231 00:11:59,679 --> 00:12:04,640 Speaker 1: She's just literally one of the most supportive, amazing people.
