In a recent interview with Paradise was a special place for them both. "And I think watching her ex go back in and use that same place to create new meaning was just something she wanted to do kind of side by side, like, to kind of reclaim it together instead of one of them going and kind of sullying the memory of that," Jacqueline said.

After coming to that they were not getting back together, fans were shocked when Kendall talked to Joe just moments before he was going to purpose to Serena P. However, Jacqueline revealed that Kendall had no idea that Joe was about to pop the big question to the 23-year-old during the season 6 finale. "I was just really upset by the people dragging her for coming on the proposal day because she didn’t know he was getting engaged that day," Jacqueline said. The Bachelor alum also explained that she understands that storylines and contestants could often be manipulated by the producers of the show and that it's the name of the game. "I love these producers and I have a love for the show and it’s hard to watch them, like, take down someone I love in a way and so I’m a bit angry about that," Jacqueline said.

Lately, contestants of The Bachelor franchise have called out production for bad edits, leaving no room for separation between reality and television. However, Kendall played along with her self-proclaimed "villain" role, which led fans to believe that she actually returned to Bachelor In Paradise to win Joe back. Even though the record is now set straight, that love triangle made for quality reality television.
