Before Clayton Echard became the host of ABC’s reality television show, “The Bachelor,” he appeared on Michelle Young’s season of “The Bachelorette.”
The former footballer and medical sales rep was knocked out before the hometown date, but he now admits he almost quit even before getting that far.
Clayton Echard Says He Feels ‘Out of Place’

Clayton Echard recently sat down with US Weekly, where he finally admitted he almost quit Michelle Young’s season of ‘The Bachelorette”.
On the first night, Echard said he was “one of the quietest guys.” “I barely spoke,” Echard said compared to some of the other men vying for Young’s heart. “I’m too scared to say something stupid. I don’t want to bring negativity my way. So I really just sat down and I was like, ‘I’m going to be as careful as possible because I don’t want to let my mouth go and suddenly be the focus of some Night one drama.
In fact, he said he “almost left [the show] six times because [he] feels out of place.”
Confidence Is A Struggle For Clayton Echard

One of the biggest struggles Echard says she faced during Michelle Young’s season of “The Bachelorette” was confidence.
“Friends [were] down the stairs for their intro and what they were wearing and they looked so comfortable acting ridiculous…,” she said before adding, “I thought, ‘These guys are so comfortable in their own skin and I’m not, so how can I be in here among these men?’”
There were six different moments where Echard said he “almost approached the producer and said, ‘Can I go home?'”
Despite his lack of confidence, the reality television star persevered and ended up in a relationship with Michelle Young. “This is probably something I can get used to for the rest of my life. He might be The One… I feel like everything I’ve been chasing is right in front of me, and I’m so excited,” Echard said while on the show regarding her relationship with Young.
Unfortunately, something is still missing between the two, and Young sends Echard home before the hometown date.

The former reality television star opens up even more in her new book, “180 Degrees On Mental Health, Mindfulness, and Unlocking Self-Confidence”.
“8 months later and I officially have a book to share with you all!!,” she wrote on social media alongside a photo of herself holding her new book. “I wrote 180 Degrees partly for myself, because it was therapy to document my mental health journey from childhood to now. It’s been a long time coming for me to deal with all the jumbled thoughts in my head and begin to sort them out bit by bit. “
Echard touches on many topics in her new book, including mental health struggles and self-confidence issues — something she has struggled with her entire life.
“I also created it in hopes of helping others find their own self-love, self-confidence, confidence to open up and start having the necessary conversations centered around mental health, and most importantly… a sense of peace that they are not alone,” she keep sharing.
“180 Degrees On Mental Health, Mindfulness and Unlocking Self-Confidence” by Clayton Echard is available on Amazon.
