Kaitlyn Bristoweis sharing her thoughts on the newBacheloretteseason.
During thelatest episodeof thePEOPLEEveryDaypodcast, theBachelorettealum, 37, told the truth about how she feels about the new season, which contestants she’s rooting for and how much she misses being a host for the show.
“I had so many thoughts,” Bristowe said after she learned about the two-lead season. “At first I was like, No, please don’t do this again. I thought we learned our lesson the first time – nobody liked having two Bachelorettes. The last time it felt like we were pitted against each other.”
Tuning into Monday’s premiere episode, Bristowe says, she wasn’t sure the gambit was going to pay off: “I’m watching last night and I’m just thinking, like, ‘Why are we doing this again?'”
Bristowe continued, “I’m just hoping there’s — of course I say no drama, there’s gonna be drama — but I’m hoping it just works out for them in the end.”
Any drama she can already anticipate? “You can already tell that they do have similar taste in men and that I’m sure that’s gonna be a problem.”
“It’s gonna get messy … but so are a lot of relationships,” she continued. “It’s a really scary foundation to start on. When you wanna build a relationship on trust, [but] you don’t know who they’re there for.”
As for her thoughts on the season’s contestant, Bristowe already has some favorites. “I actually did like the meatball one,” she said, referring toJames Clarke, a self-described “meatball enthusiast” from Winnetka, Illinois. “If you’re gonna call yourself a meatball enthusiast, you better show up with a meatball sub for everybody enough to feed the whole mansion. And that’s what he did. I thought that was really funny.”
The podcast host also talked aboutthe importance of the first impression rose, noting that this year’s recipientsMarioand Tino have good odds for success given the show’s history. “Women’s intuition!” she notes. “There have been a lot of bachelorettes that have given their first impression rose out to the final winner so I wouldn’t be surprised if they made it really far.”

TheDancing with the Starswinner, who is planning a wedding with Jason Tartick, also shared the advice she’d give the two leading ladies if asked.
“If a guy doesn’t like you, it has nothing to do with you. It has everything to do with him and what he likes. And it probably wouldn’t have been the best relationship for you anyways,” she says. To succeed, she says, be sure to “communicate with each other, make that a priority to be on the same page as one another.”
