As season 25 of the “Bachelor” progressed, fans wondered why Matt James kisses with his eyes open. In his recent appearance on “Watch What Happens Live,” the star provided some answers to the curiosity of his fans.

When the show’s host Andy Cohen asked James about his first kiss, the former college basketball player had quite a story to tell.

He shared saying;

“I was in seventh grade, and I snuck out of the movie theaters to make out with my current girlfriend, and I bit her lip so hard that she bled down her chin.”

Traumatized by the event, James disclosed that the incident was his reason for kissing with his eyes open to ensure that everything is going well. The anomaly was brought to light by a fan who tweeted,  “I’ve found Matt James’ glaring flaw: he kisses with his eyes open.” Many others weighed in on the tweet in no time. 

Tyler Cameron echoed the thoughts of “Bachelor Nations” fans and asked his New York City roommate why his eyes were always open during a kiss.

James jokingly replied that he was making sure nobody snuck up on them.

During an appearance on “ACC Network’s In-Play,” hosts, Kelsey Riggs and EJ Manuel told the real estate broker to explain his peculiar way of kissing.

He laughed at their request and admitted he didn’t realize he kissed with his eyes open until he watched it on video and said it was cringe-worthy. He then went on to issue an apology to fans who had to watch him kiss with his eyes open.

He further went on to say he’ll start wearing shades or an eye patch for his next kissing experience.

Spoilers for the contestant who will win James’ final rose and his heart are abounding, and celebrity blogger “Reality Steve” recently shared a juicy tidbit as he claimed Rachel Kirkconnell won.

He shared that he was informed that Michelle Young and Kirkconnell made it to the top two on his blog, and Rachael won the final rose.

Steve disclosed speculations and passing rumors out of a small town in Cumming, GA. He added that Kirkconnell, her friends, and her family are all privy to the information and are in a celebration mood.

However, the blogger pointed out that he had the same information about Madi during Peter’s season. And he never believed it because he was never convinced it is that easy.

In a new blogpost, he shared that he felt confident that Kirkconnell was the winner but had no knowledge of their engagement yet.

In another post, Steve confirmed that the two lovebirds are still together, and a fan page of the show revealed that James was listening to his partner’s Spotify playlist.
