Matt James opened up about his dating life post-Bachelor, but fans think there may be something else already going on.
ABC Matt James. Matt James ‘ season of The Bachelor has come to an end, and he and his season pick, Rachael Kirkconnell, are no longer together. The news, though spoiled in the weeks leading up to the show’s finale, was shared on Monday, March 15, at the pre-taped episode of After the Final Rose. The morning after the finale aired, Matt sat down for a virtual interview with Michael Strahan on Good Morning America. In addition to seeing Rachael for the first time since their split, which Matt said “hit [him] like a ton of bricks,” he was also asked about where his head is at post-show, specifically in regard to his dating life. Strahan quoted Matt when he said “feelings don’t go away overnight,” and asked if he was leaving the door open for Rachael. However, Matt shared that he’s simply not ready to say anyone because he needs “time to process” after what has certainly been an emotional roller coaster. “I think there’s a lot of work that needs to be done before I can think about being in a relationship with anybody. I need time to process everything that’s going on, and I want to respect Rachael and what she’s gotta do, as well,” Matt said.
