I don&#8217;t get nervous about it because I feel like it&#8217;s just an opinion, please don&#8217;t take it personal.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>When it comes to people not agreeing with her opinions, the reality TV personality says she rather have a conversation&nbsp;than it be misconstrued. &#8220;If I offended you please let me know so we can have a conversation and I can explain myself,&#8221; she expressed.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"video-int-txt-3\" data-hook=\"scrollable-block\" readability=\"34.803324099723\">\n<section data-textblock-tracking=\"text-block-video-text\" data-swiftype-index=\"false\" readability=\"11.601108033241\">\n<p>In fact, Rachel pointed out that she did just that with <strong>Peter Weber<\/strong>, who is the newest <em>Bachelor <\/em>and was recently featured on <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.eonline.com\/news\/hannah_brown\">Hannah Brown<\/a><\/strong>&#8216;s season of<em> The Bachelorette<\/em>.

I feel like a protective big sister because I don&#8217;t want anyone to hurt Peter,&#8221; she continued. &#8220;I don&#8217;t think he will be dramatic.
