The Bachelor star Clayton Echard has bravely opened up about suffering from suicidal thoughts after facing an "overwhelming" backlash during his time on the show.
The mental health coach praised his now ex-girlfriend Susie Evans, who he met on The Bachelor, for helping him through the tough time. Clayton said she was the only person who stopped him from "going off the rails".
Clayton and Susie appeared on the 26th season of the dating show and began a relationship in December last year, though their romance wasn't without some bumps along the road. They announced their separation late last month.
