Nate Mitchell formed a solid connection with Gabby Windey on this season of The Bachelorette, but she eliminated him when she realized that she wasn’t ready to be a stepmom to his daughter. Right around the time that episode aired, Reality Steve published allegations from two former girlfriends about Nate.
