The Bachelorette's Katie Thurston talks Greg Grippo's blowout and how she and fiancé Blake Moynes plan to steer away from the entertainment world

Variety

"I don’t think the entertainment industry is where we’re headed," she tells Variety. "We have a lot of similar alignments in terms of where we’re headed in life, and what he wants to do with his advocacy for animals and the planet are things that also excite me and that I’m passionate about, as well." As for Greg, Thurston says "it’s tough because I watched the episode initially right before seeing Greg, so those emotions are very fresh and Bachelor Nation hadn’t seen it yet. I had no idea how heavy this topic was going to be, regardless of whose side you’re on or what your perspective was, so now, given that it (had) been a week of listening and understanding, I think all I can do is support Greg and his journey for healing and whatever it is that he’s going through. I did come down hard and I did have a lot of anger. If I have the opportunity to talk to someone who hurt me, I’m going to."
