Abbie Chatfield reveals what drove her to take sleeping pills while filming The Bachelor
Abbie Chatfield has revealed that she was “bullied” so badly by her fellow Bachelor contestants that she took sleeping pills so she could sleep through the day and avoid them while filming the show.
The 27-year-old reality star spoke with Jacob Stanley on the latest episode of his podcast, It’s A Lot, where he explained his experience on the 2019 series with Matt Agnew.
Despite criticism towards her co-stars, who, according to Abbie, called her “c**t” and “b***h” to her face, the star finished in second place and had a very successful media career.
Abbie Chatfield has revealed that she was “bullied” so badly by her fellow Bachelor contestants that she took sleeping pills so she could sleep through the day and avoid them while filming the show.
“I was taking sleeping pills to sleep all day, it was really bad,” he explained.
“Matt protected me, he figured out what was going on, he’s very smart, I think that’s why he didn’t listen to anything they said, he said, ‘I can see them, harassing her.'”
She also explained that she is now “very good friends” with Matt, despite him riding off into the sunset with Chelsie McLeod at the end of the series.
Abbie revealed how Matt said here that the girls attacking her made him feel sympathetic to her.

‘One time one of them yelled at me ‘you ab***’ as I walked past her, one of them called me ‘ac***’ to my face, one of them said ‘every action has a reaction’ like they were all gathered around me calling me c***, it was full.
She also revealed that the bullying got so bad that a makeup artist from the show had to step in.
‘That it was really cooked. It was really fucked up, at one point the makeup artist gathered the girls in the room and told them to “stop harassing her”.
Despite criticism towards her co-stars, who, according to Abbie, called her “c**t” and “b***h” to her face, the star finished in second place and had a very successful media career.
“In fact, it looked better on air, the makeup artist literally brought them together and stood in front of me like a protective bear and said, ‘You’re harassing this poor girl, leave her alone.'”
“All I can say is that I’m the only one who’s still friends with Matt Agnew.”
Abbie also said that she still doesn’t know what she did to piss off the girls, but said they hated her after she told Matt that her partner Monique Morley called him ‘dog shit’.
“Everyone was so mad about it because they hated dobbing but I’m a dobber I love dobbing I’m a fucking dobber don’t do it then I don’t know you f***ts,” he explained.
She also revealed that the bullying got so bad that a makeup artist from the show had to step in.
“I’ve been with you guys for two and a half weeks and one of you guys is calling this guy a C word I’m going to tell him like girls you did sorry but I’m on Masked Singer now so I guess I know what makes a good television.
“It was literally like I killed all their mothers, they hated me so much I couldn’t do anything right.”
I’m still very confused about what I did to them, I actually asked them and one girl said “you can call me and I’ll explain what I did”. I was like ‘no, I want it in writing so I can post it in my stories’, obviously I didn’t do anything wrong.
Abbie also said that she still doesn’t know what she did to upset the girls, but said that they hated her after she told Matt that her partner Monique Morley called him “dog shit.”
Abbie also revealed that she would call out the other contestants for their political views, which made her even less popular.
“I was 23, I was the youngest, I think I was the loudest, I’m pretty left-wing, I was always telling them that they were saying things that were racist, sexist, homophobic, and I was always calling them out on things.”
“I had a meeting with the EP because someone was saying problematic things all the time, that’s why they hated me too.
‘I was the youngest and had the most opinions, I was like ‘you guys are screwed, you’re conservative, why are you right wing? It’s fucking weird.’
In true candid style, Abbie also shared the reason she wanted to sleep with the bachelor Matt.
‘I wanted to fuck Matt, do you know why? He didn’t have a vibrator at home, I had to masturbate kissing him, we couldn’t fuck, he couldn’t touch me, do you think Matt masturbated with us? Yes!
‘I’m sorry we wanted to root for each other, I’m so sorry to everyone, I wanted to root for someone.
“I really like this boy and wanted to stay with him, and you guys are being so mean to me all the time, just keep me away from you, thank God for the caretakers.”
