However, Sydney already brought the drama during Episode 2 of The Bachelor. She and Maria Georgas clashed over comments Maria had made about Madina Alam being one of the older bachelorettes in the cast.
Maria's comments were intended to be supportive, not catty. But Sydney misunderstood Maria's motive and talked about her behind her back.
Will Sydney recover and continue to spark a connection with Joey, or will drama seal her fate on The Bachelor's 28th season before she can even secure a one-on-one date?
