Why Did Aaron Erb Quit ‘The Bachelorette’?
Aaron decided to leave the show during the July 22, 2024, episode after he got a professional opportunity he couldn’t turn down.
“I had a dream of being a fighter pilot my entire life and I got a call,” Aaron explained about his decision. “Pilot training dates are happening, and they pretty much said, ‘We’re not holding these. Either you come back right away or the dream is over.’”
He then noted that his feelings for Jenn weren’t strong enough to pass on the opportunity. “I wish I was further along where I felt like, ‘As long as I have Jenn in my life, I’m happy.’ I’m just not there yet,” he explained.
After Aaron made his decision to leave, he warned Jenn about some of the other suitors still in the competition. “I’m not gonna name names, but there are people that aren’t ready,” he told Jenn, adding that they weren’t ready to settle down and weren’t there for the right reasons.
Aaron also refused to name the men he was speaking about and told Jenn that it was her responsibility to figure it out.
Following their conversation, Jenn admitted she wasn’t happy with the way Aaron handled the situation. “I feel like it was a disingenuous conversation,” she said in a confessional. “I feel like he knew he wanted to leave, which is fine, but to not tell me who these people are … that’s cruel.”
