The 28-year-old New Bedford native gained a reputation as the show's villain due to an ongoing feud with fellow contestant Maria Georgas.
Gordon joined Georgas on a two-on-one date with Graziadei on the Monday, Feb. 12 episode to discuss the drama while on a cast trip to Malta, but citing a stronger connection with Georgas, Graziadei sent Gordon home.
Gordon, who on TV said she was looking forward to returning home to her cats, shared vitriolic voicemails from some of her haters in an Instagram reel.
"F—ing bitch. You're a skank," one person can be heard saying.
"You are as low and gross and scummy as they come," another said.
Gordon went on to say those were just two of the "thousands of hurtful messages" she's gotten in the last couple of weeks.
"I didn’t know I could feel this low in my entire life," she said. Gordon says every time she opens social media, she's reminded of the insecurities it took her "so long" to overcome.
She says one person told her she'd be better off dead.
"People struggle with suicide ideation," she said. "That is something that should not be taken lightly... something we should be joking about. As a society... we need to do better."
Gordon went on to say that viewers may hate the "character created on the show" but the person on the receiving end is real.
She noted she'd be keeping her comments off the protect her peace, and her friends and family's peace.
"The Bachelor" airs Mondays at 8 p.m. on ABC. An episode will also air Tuesday night, Feb. 13.
