Television career

The Bachelor
Main article: The Bachelor (season 18)

Crawley first appeared as a contestant on Juan Pablo Galavis's season of The Bachelor, where she made it to the final two but was rejected in favor of fellow contestant Nikki Ferrell.[5] During her time on The Bachelor, she and Galavis went out at night to swim in the ocean together, which Galavis later called a mistake as he did not want to set a bad example for his daughter.[6] After Galavis rejected her, Crawley called him out for the inappropriate language he used regarding their time together, which was met with widespread praise by viewers.[7]

gollark: Does anybody?
gollark: It happened to me kind of recently (last week or something); I put up a CB Truffle egg and got a CB Xenowyrm. A Golden Wyvern (seemingly not rare, but far rarer than truffles) didn't get any offers whatsoever.
gollark: New releases have really weird valuation, basically.
gollark: Madness.
gollark: Someone in the tradehub has gotten a copper and xenowyrm (both CB) and wants... a zyumorph.
