During her one-on-one date with Echard, Recchia opened up about her relationship history, explaining how difficult it was to date with her career as a pilot. “As a woman, I have to work harder and I have to prove myself more every single day,” she told him, per Entertainment Weekly. Plus, according to Recchia, her ex wasn’t supportive of her career, even assuming that she’d cheat on him when traveling for work. Describing his love as “conditional,” Recchia made it clear that her forever person would need to be proud and supportive of her career.

That’s not all. According to a Reddit thread, Recchia’s ex responded to the episode in an Instagram Story. “My lawyer is gonna be busy 🌹,” he reportedly wrote. (Not sure what his lawyer would do about Recchia opening up about her unnamed ex, but I digress.)

Recchia was a clear frontrunner throughout Echard’s season. And when he loudly proclaimed, “I love you,” while leaving their Fantasy Suites date, it certainly seemed like she was going to receive his final rose. Instead, Echard decided to pursue Susie Evans, another frontrunner who elected to leave the show after learning Echard was “intimate” with other women and expressed feelings of love for them.

It ended... badly. When Echard broke things off with Recchia, she told him, “I promise you that when you look back at this, this is going to haunt you, the fact that you let me go. I tried so hard, I gave you everything. I fought for this every single day and you never once fought for me.” (Brutal.)

During “ATFR,” things were still tense. “You told me that I was the first person that you said ‘I love you’ to in six years. I had no reason to ever doubt you,” she told Echard. “So did you tell me that you were in love with me because you wanted to sleep with me?” He denied it, but I still have a feeling these exes won’t be amicable anytime soon.
