Fans haven’t seen all the highs and lows of Golden Bachelorette Joan Vassos’ journey to find love. After recording the Men Tell All special, which aired on Nov. 6 and saw Vassos reunite with her Golden Bachelorette exes, the reality star recalled a funny behind-the-scenes mishap fans missed out on. Vassos revealed to Entertainment Weekly that she suffered an awkward wardrobe malfunction while filming the hometown dates.

“I was at the hometowns with Chock, in Kansas, and it was really hot. It was honestly like 105 degrees,” she said. “I had a sundress on, and I had those chicken cutlet things [in my dress], like they’re boob pads. I had those on because I have the sundress on, and you can’t have bra straps showing.”

Vassos then recalled how her “boob pad” became unstuck while standing in front of Chock’s family and friends. “I feel it starting to slip and I’m trying to stop it with my arm, and I can’t do it,” she said. “It makes it down to my stomach, and then it comes right off the bottom of the dress, and there it is by my foot.”

Luckily for the Golden Bachelorette, the cameras didn’t catch the blooper, because if they did “they definitely would’ve shown it.” She added, “So that was the one that I got away with.”

Joan Teased The “Emotional” Finale

During the Men Tell All special, the Golden Bachelorette came face-to-face with her former mansion men, including Pascal Ibgui, who eliminated himself from the show ahead of the Fantasy Suites.

Speaking of his “very difficult decision” to leave, Pascal said he hoped he “didn’t hurt” Vassos, telling her, “You are an incredible woman and I hope that by me leaving, you were able to find the right person for yourself.”

While Vassos did see a future with Pascal, she reassured him that she was fine with his decision. “You had already made up your mind,” she said during the episode. “You were very kind and I just want the best for you. I want you to be happy.”

Meanwhile, Vassos also teased The Golden Bachelorette finale with Chock Chapple and Guy Gansert, which is set to air on Nov. 13. “It was emotional and there are a lot of tears,” she revealed. “But I will tell you that some of them are happy tears.”
