The Bachelorette host Chris Harrison is having trouble seeing chemistry between Kaitlyn Bristowe and one of her suitors whom the host has actually been pulling for.

Bristowe and Clint Arlis enjoyed a one-on-one date during which they participated in an underwater photo shoot and shared many kisses as the day progressed. Bristowe might've looked like she was feeling him, but Harrison believes otherwise.

"I went both ways with them. While they got more and more intimate as the photo shoot went on -- and what a way to capture a first date or first kiss! -- I don't know if I felt the chemistry," Harrison told TV Guide.

"But the fact that he produced that triceratops picture, I wish him the best and have to root for him."

Someone Harrison thinks Bristowe shared a special connection with was Ben Zorn.

"Ben Z. ended up sweeping Kaitlyn off her feet and blew all of us away. A lot of people have stories, but it's the way in which you express the story and have accepted it in your life," Harrison said, referencing how Zorn had shared the story of his mother's passing with the Bachelorette.

"There are people who use their story like [Kelsey Poe] last season and then other people who just want to share it and it comes off totally different."

Poe took pride in her sob story about how her husband had died and she was left a lonely widow. She appeared to think it was a token to getting roses from Bachelor Chris Soules, but it just prompted the other women in the house to question her motives and if she was sincere. Poe's story came across as a cry for attention.

Just as Poe left a bad taste in her competitor's mouths on The Bachelor, JJ Lane is doing the same on this season of The Bachelorette. During the stand-up comedy group date, guest comedian Amy Schumer even told the cameras he was arrogant, far from charming and "a turd."

"Later there is more of J.J. rubbing the guys the wrong way. Right now, [Kaitlyn] doesn't see it but she'll have to learn and see more of this guy," Harrison hinted.

The next The Bachelorette broadcast airs Monday night at 8PM ET/PT on ABC.
