'The Bachelorette' Recap: Katie Thurston's Men Return to Tell All Haley Kluge, provided by FacebookTwitterEmail SPOILER ALERT: Do not read if you have not yet watched the July 26 “Men Tell All” episode of “The Bachelorette.” More from Variety “Maybe Daddy left because he don’t want to see me,” his son James said. The comment forced Michael to go to Katie directly and withdraw from the season. “I’m not leaving because of us. I’m leaving because my son needs his dad,” he told Katie. The exit prompted tears from Katie, before segueing into the “Men Tell All” portion of the episode, which — of course — contained the traditional bromances and recounts of betrayal from the season. A live studio audience returned for the first time since the pandemic started, with hosts Tayshia Adams and Kaitlyn Bristowe.
