This season of “The Bachelor” is in full swing and we already have a villain. 

Shanae Akney – or Shanae-nae as she likes to call herself – has emerged as house enemy No. 1. She’s been involved in much of the house’s drama, has had her character questioned and has even been called out to Clayton – the Bachelor – as “toxic.” 

In last week’s preview, it was revealed that Shanae and Genevieve, who has already gotten into one screaming match with her, will be involved in a two-on-one. The drama surrounding those two apparently had gotten so bad that it forced Clayton to choose. That means one will be sent home. 

With one of them guaranteed to go home, let’s break down the odds of who will go home.

Odds for Who Will Be Sent Home This Week

  • Shanae: -175
  • Genevieve: +120

Shanae Gets The Rose

While I would bet that Shanae gets sent home this week, she has already been saved once by Clayton. Their connection seems to be one he thoroughly enjoys and he would like to keep her around. It was clear how the house felt during the “Shanae v. Elizabeth” showdown. Clayton still kept Shanae around. 

She goes out of her way to show Clayton that she is  “here for him,” which might be her biggest selling point. If Clayton isn’t afraid to upset the rest of the house, Shanae could be here for a little longer.

Her opponent in this battle, Genevieve, has inserted herself into the drama – although she was never personally attacked. While she was standing up for the house, that may prove to be a costly move.

Genevieve Gets The Rose

After multiple weeks of drama, it may be time for Shanae to go home. She was able to survive her battle with Elizabeth – even after making fun of her mental health – and did it all in front of Clayton. However, there is only so many times drama can surround you are looked at as the problem. 

Genevieve has come to the defense of the entire house and has chosen to go one-on-one with Shanae. While Clayton does have a solid connection with Shanae, Genevieve has the house on her side. 

Clayton has already asked how the house felt after Elizabeth went home, which means he knows he could lose respect if he keeps Shanae around. With several weeks to go and many connections left for him to foster, Shanae could be on the chopping block.
