Luke Parker was sent home during last week’s episode of The Bachelorette, but he tried to get Hannah Brown to give him one more shot during last night’s explosive episode.
Not only did he completely embarrass himself in front of Brown, he refused to leave after she repeatedly told him she didn’t want him there anymore. Following last night’s episode, Parker took to Instagram to explain why he went back for the 24-year-old and his reasons for going on the show in the first place.
“I want you all to know why I went on this TV show and why I went back for @alabamahannah after she sent me home. I never wanted to go on the show to begin with, my sister in law @hleaparker22 signed me up and I kept an open mind,” he wrote.
“Going through the interview process I watched Colton’s season and a beautiful southern girl stood out to me during the intro videos. She told the cameras she respected Colton’s virginity and that it was super appealing to her that he was a virgin, and was the bachelor because sex was a big deal to her.”
While on the show, Parker opened up to Brown about his faith and even took her to his bible study during his Hometown Date.
“On my hometown date I brought Hannah to a bible study with my college church group, where I shared my story of how God transformed my life and gave me a desire to live my life for him in obedience, that included waiting until marriage for sex,” he shared.
“Hannah on the date, stands up and tells the group her story of how she was convicted to live a life in pursuit of Jesus. She also told them that she wasn’t going to use the fantasy suites for sex but for conversation, no matter how @abcnetwork made it look.”
He continued, “I had to go back and fight for her, I believed in my heart she was making the biggest mistake of her life based on what she was telling me, I wanted her to know that we could get through this and I was here for her.”
Regardless of his reasons for going on the show, Parker was sent home for good last night, leaving three guys left — Tyler Cameron, Peter Weber, and Jed Wyatt. What did you think of Parker during last night’s episode? Let us know all of your thoughts in the comments section below.
