The Bachelorette‘s Rachel Recchia is living it up on her trip to Chicago, but her latest post has fans worried. Rachel starred as a co-bachelorette in the nineteenth season of the reality show alongside Gabby Windey. While her season did not exactly offer her a fairytale love story, the TV personality found the courage to attain something else she’d always wanted — a breast reduction.
Months after changing her physique with the breast reduction, it appears Rachel is making even more changes to her features, specifically, her eyebrows. Her recent Instagram posts have featured Rachel Recchia with eyebrows fainter than those fans became accustomed to on The Bachelorette. In the video shared on Sunday, July 30, the 27-year-old did a montage of her 48-hour stay in Chicago. She compiled excerpts showing her attending a wedding, enjoying a bus tour, and spending memorable moments with close pals.
Rachel Recchia’s Lighter Eyebrows Turn Heads
Notably, what captured the attention of fans was Rachel’s barely visible eyebrows. The first video, captured in a bedroom, proved especially disturbing, as Rachel Recchia in minimal makeup appeared to have no eyebrows adorning her face. Although the eyebrows were visible in subsequent shots, the soft hue gave off a thinning appearance that left fans concerned.
Reacting to the video, many of Rachel Recchia’s fans acknowledged her attempt to embrace the bleached eyebrow trend, which involves bleaching one’s eyebrows to achieve a much lighter tone. However, many commenters found it concerning, utilizing the platform to check up on the star. One fan wrote,
“What’s going on with your eyebrows? Kinda scary they’re so light.”
Another wrote,
“I am forever confused by this trend lol.”
Meanwhile, several fans came to Rachel Recchia’s defense, slamming those commenting on the thinner hue of her eyebrows. They made it clear there was no justifiable reason to comment on another’s appearance even in a show of concern. Such comments came off as body-shaming.
Rachel’s previous posts of herself rocking her new eyebrows also stirred similar reactions. This has left most fans wondering if Rachel Recchia enhanced more than just her eyebrows given how different the Bachelorette alum‘s facial features appear.
