After the incident, Caelynn went to the hospital to get tested. But unfortunately her tests could not give accurate results as too much time had passed since the assault. She later realized that she was raped by two different men at the frat house.

The Bachelor airs Monday evenings at 8 p.m. ET on ABC.

If you or someone you know encountered sexual assault, please call the National Sexual Assault Hotline at 1-800-656-4673 for 24/7 help.
