As things heat up on "The Bachelorette," Kaitlyn Bristowe is being put in the hot seat!
On Tuesday night's episode, viewers were shocked when an extended promo for this season revealed that the newly crowned Bachelorette slept with one of her suitors weeks before the "fantasy suite" stage of the dating competition.
In light of this scandalous revelation, Bristowe sat with ET's Nancy O'Dell on Wednesday to reveal why she's "not ashamed" of what was caught on the "Bachelorette" cameras.
"I don’t think that's a crazy thing to sleep with somebody when you're trying to be in a relationship with them," the brunette beauty explained. "I'm a 30-year-old woman and I make my own decisions and intimacy to me is a part of every relationship and I don’t know why everyone is so shocked by it. It's 2015."
"I'm an in-the-moment kind of person," she continued. "I tried to compartmentalize each relationship and be present with each guy, and some went faster than others and some went slower than others."
O'Dell's pressing caused Bristowe to admit that her late-night rendezvous happened after she and the mystery man had shared "a few" dates together. More specifically, somewhere after the second date but before the fifth.
"I'm not ashamed of it -- I just regret the timing. But I'm also not afraid to talk about it," she said. "I don’t really have a problem talking about that kind of thing. I think when you're looking for a lifetime partnership, intimacy is obviously a part of that."
So would there be less backlash from the fans if Bristowe were the Bachelor instead of the Bachelorette? "I think he'd still take some heat for it, but maybe just not as much," the dance instructor said. "It's probably a little worse because I'm a lady."

No, you aren't, Ms. Bristowe.
she eateth, and wipeth her mouth, and saith, I have done no wickedness.
The author, writing in the seventies, describes some of the key social features of our day quite uncannily.
I’m sorry, but I as a gentleman will say that you just demonstrated a lack of class that, as old fashioned as you may think it sounds, doesn’t belong right in the public’s faces. and BTW, I don’t bother watching “The Bachelorette or Bachelor, because it’s pretty much the same old garbage recycled about how one person tries to impress a bunch of people of the opposite gender crowded together.
Never watched the show, but the second girl is (way) hotter.
In my humble opinion.
I’m done watching this Bachelorette, but not because she slept with sleazy, effeminate Nick from last season. That horrid Nick will make his appearance in the next episode.
I was all for Britt who looks just like one of my granddaughters.
I guess three dates is all it takes nowadays...why would any of these ‘genetleman’ marry when they are already getting the metaphorical milk for free?
Are those the same two girls?
In that photo, I’d rate them the same.
In the first photos though, I’d hands-down give the blond the vote.
Which is which?
Never watched the show. Did I miss anything?
Sex on the Bachelorette? What’s next? Naked Dating?
Great photos, thanks.
Again I’d go with Britt this time.
IIRC, this Kaitlyn doesn’t get engaged at the end of this season, anyway.
The last two bachelors are that walk-on, horrid Nick from last season and the goofball who got the first rose.
Why waste time watching this Bacherlorette?
I would have watched Britt!
this is the first time that a female contesant has admitted in public to doing the deed before the ‘Honeymoon/Fantasy Suite’ stage, where marriage is expected.
Why would the suitor choose her? She gave it up waaay to quick - lol. Another notch in the bedpost honey. Sad really!
It’s kinda gross really, did she end up doing it with more than one contestant? The cameras are never allowed in the private suites, so who knows for sure...bleeech
The guys chose the trashy girl because — come on — they are not there to find a wife.
