SEASON 26 Bachelor Clayton Echard comes from a family with two brothers but likely didn’t expect to compete with either of them for his lovers’ hearts.
After a bombshell confession from ex, Teddi Wright, claiming that one of the younger brothers slid into her DMs, fans were curious about the Echard brothers.
Teddi Wright was sent home by Clayton the week before the Hometown Dates took place, but seemed to have made an impression on one of Clayton’s brothers, regardless of never having met him.
On the Women Tell All Special, Teddi claimed that one of Clayton’s brothers slid into her DMs after she was sent home.
“Clayton’s brother did reach out to me,” she confirmed to host Jesse Palmer, without revealing which brother it was.
“I didn’t reply,” she said, joking that “One Echard boy in my lifetime was enough for me.”
Clayton responded on Twitter, saying:
“Both of my brothers have been vehemently denying sliding in the DMs. So Teddi, please give the people (including me) what they want and release the DMs.”
Three brothers total make up the Echard family: Clayton, Nate, and Patrick.
Nate is Clayton’s current roommate in Scottsdale, Arizona.
A former rugby player, he’s the family’s middle brother and seems to enjoy hiking and being outdoors.
According to his Twitter account, he is now an Associate Mako Product Specialist at Stryker in Scottsdale, which is the same company big brother Clayton worked for selling medical devices before leaving to pursue his dream girl on The Bachelor.
Patrick Echard is the youngest brother of the Echard family.
He also works for Stryker, and he transferred to an office in Oregon in late December, according to his LinkedIn. This move allowed Clayton to take over his lease with Nate.
Patrick is the brother that Clayton claims to believe is more likely to have slid into Teddi’s DMs, according to an interview with Glamour.
He speculated: “I think it’s Pat, my youngest brother. Honestly, I wouldn’t put it past either of them. They both cannot be tamed.”
