After coming in second to Bryan Abasolo during Rachel Lindsay’s season of  The Bachelorette in 2017, fans expected Peter Kraus to become ‘The Bachelor’. Peter went on The Ben and Ashley’s popular podcast and revealed that he turned down producers not once but three times, saying they tried to get him to break things off with a woman he was seeing.

Why did he turn down the opportunity after all?

According to Kraus after witnessing the extremely unfair pressure on Rachel and Bryan post-Bachelorette he had asked ‘to spend more time with people individually,’

to be given access to relationship counseling, and to receive higher compensation.  Also, Peter made way more money IRL than they were offering him on the show, telling them,

“Well, I make considerably more than that already per year. Why would I give up the rest of my life of being ‘Peter The Bachelor’ and no longer just Peter for the amount of money that isn’t life-changing?’

We all agreed it wouldn’t make sense to pay a lot of money because you’re no longer doing it for the right reasons.”

He further explained by saying that

‘I wanted to be able to just go into the house and see people in their natural habitat so that way it didn’t feel like they were putting on a show for me. It was more like this is who you actually are when you’re unsuspecting of where I’m at.’

Peter’s present love life

Well also seeing the fact that  Kraus had chosen his lucky lady, he asked that he receive ‘continued support for himself and the person that he chose to be with.’

The producers further interrogated him about his love life at the moment and getting to know that Peter might be talking to someone; they bluntly asked him if “He would you be willing to leave that or exit that?” for the sake of Bachelorette.

To which Peter replied, ‘It was really hard for me and I couldn’t say I would for sure get in an engagement at the end of the show. It wasn’t that I knew for a fact that I didn’t want to. It was more than I couldn’t promise them that I would and I didn’t want to be forced to do it if I said yes to the show.’

In the end, Peter and the producers failed to see eye-to-eye and the spot was eventually given to The Bachelor alum Arie Luyendyk Jr.
