Clare Crawley Responds to Speculation That She's Engaged After Wearing Ring on That Finger

Fans spotted what appeared to be an engagement ring on The Bachelorette‘s Clare Crawley‘s left ring finger, prompting rumors that she does get engaged on her season.

Speculation has ensued that she and contestant Dale Moss get engaged and they leave the show together before bringing in Tayshia Adams.

Clare responded directly on Instagram after the photo of her ring went viral.

“People have noticed I wear this ring on my wedding finger, and have asked why! The truth is because it is a commitment to myself first and foremost, to embody self-love,” she wrote on Instagram. “In the past I found myself getting into relationships where there was little to no reciprocity, and in the end would feel depleted and empty. This is my promise to myself, to make sure I always had enough self love that no matter what happened, I was committed to loving myself unconditionally, and that is something no man could take away from me.”
