Bachelor: Everything To Know About Clayton’s Brother DMing Teddi

Teddi Wright spilled major tea on Monday’s The Bachelor “Women Tell All” special when she revealed one of Clayton Echard’s brothers slid into her DMs. New season 26 host Jesse Palmer pressed the 25-year-old surgical unit nurse to elaborate further, but Teddi remained tight-lipped. The only thing she would say was that “one Echard boy was enough.”

Teddi received the first impression rose on Clayton’s season of The Bachelor. Much to the shock of fans and herself, Teddi was eliminated the week before hometown dates. Even though it didn’t work out with Clayton, Teddi told Jesse during her hot seat on “Women Tell All” that she’s “so open and ready for love now.” Will that love be with another Echard? Probably not.

Now which brother could have slid into Teddi’s DMs? Former NFL player Clayton is the oldest of two brothers. Nate is the middle Echard brother who, like his older brother, was a former professional rugby player and currently works as a salesman for medical devices in Scottsdale, Arizona. Patrick is the youngest of the Echard boys and lives in Oregon. All the brothers are extremely close, and Clayton has said that they watch his season together. After Teddi made her confession on the “Women Tell All,” Twitter went ablaze. The Bachelor himself, Clayton, tweeted “Both of my brothers have been vehemently denying sliding in the DMs. So Teddi, please give the people (including me) what they want and release the DMs.“

Clayton’s brother Nate jumped in as well and encouraged Teddi to “Release the DMs.” Unfortunately, this didn’t clear up who did it because then Patrick posted to his Instagram stories denying all culpability from the “Women Tell All” reveal. Teddi hasn’t released the DMs, but she revealed she received the message during the first episode of The Bachelor season 26. During an appearance on the Us Weekly podcast, Here for the Right Reasons, Teddi went on to say it was a “sweet message,” but she didn’t respond. Clayton believes it was his younger brother Patrick, who he jokingly calls “Pat the Rat.” The 28-year-old admitted he and his brothers watch his season together and they are always giving him a hard time. Patrick and Nate think they act smoother and could do much better at attracting the women than their Bachelor brother ever could.

So the mystery of the DM may never be solved, but could fans see another Echard brother on the franchise? Both Patrick and Nate are single and clearly ready to mingle. Teddi’s time on The Bachelor is over, but she’ll probably be a featured contestant on Bachelor in Paradise. Rumors are swirling that she and Andrew Spencer from Katie Thurston’s season of The Bachelorette have been talking since filming for The Bachelor wrapped.

The Bachelor airs Mondays at 8 p.m. EST on ABC.
