Abbie's sister weighs in on The Bachelor drama: "Watching how she's being treated breaks my heart"

The reality star's sister spoke out. - by Chadielle Fayad
  • 06 Sep 2019

The Bachelor's Abbie Chatfield is now known as the "fake" of the Bachelor mansion - at least according to fellow contestant Sogand Mohit.

However, Abbie's sister, Jolie Chatfield begs to differ.

The fashion designer - who created one of the dresses Abbie wore on the show - refused to allow her sister's name to be dragged through the dirt, taking to Instagram last night to defend her sister.

After Abbie was accused of "lying" to Bachelor Matt Agnew about her views on marriage, Jolie felt that her sister had been misrepresented by the producers of the Network Ten series.

The blonde claimed that Abbie is a "genuine" person but has been barred from defending herself in interviews or on social media.

"Abbie's not allowed to defend herself... so I wanted an explanation out in the universe," Jolie wrote in a lengthy Instagram story on Thursday.

"I love my sister so much, watching how she's being treated (and edited) breaks my goddamn heart because I know how genuine she is," she added.

In another revelation, Jolie noted that Abbie - who was branded a "compulsive liar" by Sogand this week - found it difficult to trust her fellow contestants and insisted that her views on marriage weren't contradictory.

"We have talked at length about how the institution of marriage stems from a pretty backwards patriarchal idea of woman-as-chattel and also just in general how we see weddings as a waste of money."

"Marriage is something you do because you have found someone you truly love, not just because it's something you have planned in your 'timeline,'" she continued.

"Either way though, your opinions of marriage change when you meet someone you truly, truly want to spend your life with, so it's insane to me how much weight is being put on this."

Jolie was referring to Thursday's episode of The Bachelor, when Matt called in his friend Kate to give some suggestions as to who should get a rose. 

During the episode, Sogand told Matt's friend Kate that Abbie hasn't always been honest.

"There's been times where she's said a few things around the house about getting married and wanting kids, and it was nothing... it wasn't on her radar," Sogand said in her conversation with Kate.

"Minutes after, she was asked at the group date by Matt where she sees herself in the next five years and she chose "married with kids", which at that point, I was like, 'Well, how? How do you just change your mind within minutes? That's crazy'."

Kate was left concerned after hearing Sogand's remarks, later telling Matt in a debrief:

"It is concerning to me that Sogand questioned whether Abbie is being truthful with what she's telling Matt. A couple of the things that Abbie and I spoke about in relation to marriage maybe contradicted themselves a little bit."

"I won't be surprised if Abbie's just a complete fake because I don't think it's genuine if you're telling one person one thing and another something else," she continued.

When Kate spoke to Abbie, she probed the blonde about her views on marriage and children, factoring in her age. 

"Is five years or three years realistic for things like marriage and kids?" Kate asked. 

"Honestly, marriage isn't essential to me. Like, I'm not the type of person to be like, 'I need to get married'," Abbie admitted.

"I am open to getting married, [but] I'm not dying to get married. Kids, the same thing."

"I love my sister so much, watching how she's being treated (and edited) breaks my goddamn heart because I know how genuine she is," Jolie Chatfield said of her sister, Abbie Chatfield.

In a follow-up interview with the Sunday Confidential, Sogand criticised Abbie for her "manipulative" behaviour, claiming she's "putting on an act" to try and win the astrophysicist over.   

"I couldn't hold back after seeing how Abbie was one way in front of us girls when the cameras were rolling, then another way to Matt. She is a manipulator and it is time I tell her how it is," the civil engineer dished to the publication.

Sogand— who scored the first date with the hunky Bachelor— also noted that Abbie's age was a concern and may be the reason behind her behaviour.

"I think she is very young and I don't think she understands that some of us are older and can see through the bulls--t," she claimed.

The drama will continue to unfold next Wednesday at 7:30pm on Channel 10.
