On a recent episode of the Bachelor Happy Hour podcast, Hannah admitted that things almost started on the wrong foot with Tyler , who ended the season as Hannah’s runner-up.

“So the thing about Tyler – I thought he was drunk or something was wrong with him when we first [met],” Hannah, 29, said on the June 18 episode of the podcast.

“I asked the producers to check on him,” she remembered while laughing.

“I was like, ‘I think there’s something going on.'”

She added that he might have just been nervous, but that “his eyes were barely open.”

“I’m like, is this guy here with us? I’m not sure.”

She went on to say that Tyler came across as “obviously attractive,” but that there wasn’t an initial spark for the two because of his unusual behavior.

“People, of course, always ask me about the top people that I ended up having connections with – and there wasn’t actually a connection with him the first night,” she confessed.

Podcast hosts and Bachelor in Paradise alums Joe Amabile and Serena Pitt then asked Hannah if she almost eliminated Tyler from the dating competition on the first night.

Hannah responded that she “almost did” because the pair didn’t talk.

“I even know that it’s hard to get your time and there’s so much going on but I thought, ‘This guy’s not serious,'” she said.

Despite his lacking first impression, Tyler made it to the end of the season and finished second when Hannah got engaged to Jed Wyatt .

Jed and Hannah split quickly following their engagement after it was revealed that Jed had been dating another woman before and during his time on the show with Hannah.

During the Season 15 live finale event, Hannah asked Tyler on a date – but their relationship never went anywhere.

NO INVITES FOR EXES

“My invite is not in the mail and it’s probably not coming as it shouldn’t be,” Tyler revealed to The U.S. Sun while promoting his partnership with Arm & Hammer .

“I think a lot of people have asked me that question and I think exes shouldn’t be going to your wedding.

“I just don’t think that’s a good idea for anybody.”

However, Tyler still referred to Hannah as a “good friend” in the interview.

“Yeah, I’d call her a good friend,” he continued.

“I think we can certainly call on each other and, you know, be there for each other. So I think that’s important.”
