Charity Lawson, a former star of "The Bachelorette," believes the show could benefit from a break. She and her fiancé, Dotun Olubeko, discussed this during the iHeartRadio Music Awards in Los Angeles. They feel that the show has been a big part of their love story but needs time to improve after this summer. Lawson commented on the recent seasons, noting that many have not ended well for the contestants. She mentioned Jenn Tran's season, which ended with a tough breakup for Tran.
