Olivia Caridi is stirring up trouble in a sneak-peek clip of Monday night's new The Bachelor episode starring Ben Higgins.

The preview video shows Caridi, a blonde news anchor who received the Bachelor's First Impression Rose, pulling Higgins away for some alone time at the start of a group date's relaxing night portion.
"Olivia, she's kind of one of those girls who gets in there, like, she slithers there," contestant Amber James said, basically calling Caridi a snake in the grass. "She literally interrupts him [in order to take him away first]."
Once Higgins and Caridi left the season, a Ferguson twin revealed to the group Higgins had asked to speak with Caridi privately before any other girl during a previous group date.
The twin made it known Caridi was big competition because she had also received that group date's rose.

"She is not letting anybody get in her way," bachelorette Leah Block pointed out.
"She's very aggressive," contestant Lace Morris added.
"To nobody's surprise," Morris told the cameras afterward, "Olivia steals Ben right away and then takes him upstairs to one of the hotel rooms and waves from the balcony down to us."
Regardless of whether Caridi intended to rub salt in their wounds or just playfully joke around with the bachelorettes, Morris called the gesture "kind of a slap in the face."
"I would love more, more, more, more, more time with [Ben] and I'm going to do whatever," Olivia said in a confessional.
