Bekah Martinez doesn’t need the public’s rose.
The former Bachelor contestant, who competed on season 22 of the show back in 2018, has been known to speak up for herself. So when someone criticized her choice to grow out her leg hair, the 30-year-old clapped back at the hate.
Bekah, who has been engaged to Grayston Leonard since 2022, shared on July 9 that she received a comment that read, “Your face doesn’t jive with your hairy legs. Grey must be grossed out.” In response, she got candid about why she’s made her choice.
“I started sneaking my mom’s razors in 3rd grade. I remember praying to God that he’d remove all my hair from the neck down. Family, friends, and even teachers and coaches would gently tease when any of my jet black leg stubble was growing out,” she explained. “It was seemingly harmless but continued to reinforce that my body’s hair was wrong.”
