Maria Georgas made a return to The Bachelor during the Women Tell All special to address the drama that unfolded during the season. The 29-year-old executive assistant took the opportunity to resolve her issues with fellow contestants Lea Cayanan, Sydney Gordon, and Jess Edwards.
Following the taping, Maria expressed that she has reconciled with Lea and Sydney, stating that their conflicts are now resolved. She mentioned that she respects both girls and believes that any misunderstandings were a result of trying to defend others rather than intentional malice.
The tension between Maria and Sydney escalated when Sydney accused Maria of being a bully and exhibiting catty behavior. This conflict led to Sydney's elimination from the show after a two-on-one date with Maria and another contestant. Lea also criticized Maria, referring to her as a drama queen cry baby and expressing shock at Joey's decision to keep Maria on the show.
Jess, another contestant, also had a falling out with Maria when she perceived Maria's behavior as disrespectful during a cocktail party. However, Maria felt surprised by Jess's actions during the Women Tell All special and expressed uncertainty about their current relationship status.
Despite the challenges she faced on the show, Maria felt positive about the resolution of the drama and the closure she gained from watching the season back. She mentioned feeling relieved and ready to move forward authentically without the weight of past conflicts.
Looking ahead, Maria hinted at the possibility of appearing on Bachelor in Paradise, indicating that she is open to the opportunity despite initial reservations. She acknowledged her role in the drama on the show and expressed a desire to handle situations differently in the future.
The Bachelor's season 28 finale is set to air on Monday at 8 p.m. ET on ABC, wrapping up a season filled with emotional moments and interpersonal conflicts.
