In celebrity news, reality TV star and former Bachelorette Rachel Lindsay criticized Tia Booth’s behavior on the latest episode of The Bachelorette. In her weekly recap post for UsMagazine.com, Lindsay discussed how Tia told current Bachelorette Becca Kufrin that she still had feelings for contestant Colton Underwood, whom she had previously dated. Lindsay called Booth a “Judas in the midst” and said, “I do really believe Tia really does like Colton, but there is a time [and] a place for everything and that place for you Tia was weeks ago when Becca confronted you about it the first time.” Lindsay added, “The reason this moment bothered me so much was that it took away, once again, from Becca. This is Becca’s season and subpar story lines and people are constantly overshadowing it. Tia, there is a place for you and it is called Paradise. You should have just let their relationship play out and if it is meant to be then Colton will see you there. All I know is that after this moment, Colton has to be thinking WTF. And surprise, surprise, Colton went home during the rose ceremony.”
In celebrity news, Rachel Lindsay isn’t a fan of the way Tia behaved on the recent episode of The Bachelorette. What are some things to consider about dating a friend’s ex partner?
Cupid’s Advice:
If you’re contemplating dating a friend’s ex partner, Cupid’s got some things for you to consider:
1. Talk to your friend: Before doing anything, it’s important that you talk to your friend about dating their ex. You must consider their feelings first and it’s important you get their blessing before moving forward with anything. If they still have feelings for your ex, you should back off.

2. Will it affect your friendship: Even if your friend does give you their blessing, dating your friend’s ex can still cause a rift in your relationship. Know that you probably won’t get to gush about your emotions while dating to your friend because it might hurt them. Dating their ex can definitely cause awkwardness and hurt feelings, even if your friend said it was okay.
3. Is the ex worth it: It’s important you consider if this person is really worth jeopardizing your friendship. If they are amazing and you have incredibly strong feelings for them, then it might be. But if you think it’ll just be a short fling, the risk likely isn’t worth it.
