Kaitlyn Bristowe has heard your Bachelorette criticisms, and frankly, she's not that bothered by them. On last night's show Kaitlyn and her suitors went to Dublin, Ireland, and she slept with contestant Nick Viall. Afterward, there were some regrets, but not for the act, jut what the sexual encounter could do to her potential relationships with other suitors.

"I think everybody knows by now that I'm a very in the moment person, so in that moment I felt like I wanted to be honest and open and share that," Kaitlyn said on Good Morning America Tuesday regarding what happened in her suite.

Viewers had mixed reactions, naturally. To the haters out there, Kaitlyn isn't paying attention to you.

"I try to not look too much into it, or read too much into it, because everybody has their opinions. No matter what I did throughout the season people will have their opinions. It's obviously tough when you get a thousand and thousands of messages that are very negative, but I just try to avoid it," she said.

GMA anchor Lara Spencer pushed Kaitlyn for more about about any regrets and Kaitlyn stuck to her guns.

"Again, I am a very in the moment person and I tried to just separate each relationship, and they all moved at different paces and that one definitely moved a little but quicker than others and maybe the timing wasn't ideal on the one," she said. "I always wondered if I would have waited 10 days—and it was the Fantasy Suite—and [if] I didn't talk about it would I be getting the same sort of response from people? Probably not...I worried about jeopardizing the relationships."

As for Ian and his…speech, Kaitlyn said she thought his ego was a little bruised. "I don't know if he took chemistry at Princeton, but he failed because there was none there."
