The Bachelor bachelorette Kaity Biggar has weighed in on Kat Izzo's controversial move to steal Zach Shallcross for a moment before his one-on-one date with Charity Lawson in Estonia.

Charity missed out on a one-on-one date with Zach in London because he had tested positive for coronavirus and needed to quarantine. The child and family therapist was therefore ecstatic to finally get her chance to have a solo date with The Bachelor's Season 27 star in Tallinn, Estonia.

But when Zach picked Charity up for their date, Kat asked to steal Zach for a quick conversation and she also kissed him. The aggressive move rubbed the other women the wrong way, especially Brooklyn Willie, who vented about how Kat was acting "rude," "disrespected," and most of all, "classless."

Kaity offered her opinion on the scandal during a March 2 appearance on the "Click Bait with Bachelor Nation" podcast.

For starters, Kaity said she never would have done the same thing as Kat, even if she hadn't made Zach a care basket and felt totally desperate to see and speak with him after his COVID-10 battle in London.

"So I know this is a little bit of a hot topic right now, but for me, that was Charity's day and that was Charity's moment," Kaity said.

Kaity suggested that while she respects the women who had stood up for Kat, she viewed Kat's move as a bit of a low blow.

"I think there was a better time to do that, when it's more appropriate," Kaity noted.

"And I understand that we're all vying for [Zach's] time. We all need to take that initiative, but that just wasn't the time for it, in my perspective."

Kaity added, "I think with the kiss, too, it wasn't -- ahh, I don't know! It was not a good feeling to be in there."

Gabi Elnicki, for example, had noticed lipgloss on Zach's lips following his chat with Kat, which led all of the bachelorettes to believe the pair had kissed. (And that little fact was confirmed for viewers on The Bachelor's February 27 episode).

"When Brooklyn said her piece on it, it was just a very uncomfortable situation. It was a very hostile environment, and I wanted to leave so bad," Kaity recalled.

"Any time there was negativity in the group, I was just like, 'I want to hit the ground running.' It was just a very awkward moment."

Kaity reiterated, however, "I understand both sides."

When asked if there were any women she didn't like on Zach's season, Kaity replied, "No. I do like all of them. Everybody is so different in their own way, and truly they are beautiful inside and out."

Kaity, however, clarified, "There are some girls I wouldn't have a close relationship with afterwards, for sure, but no comment. No comment."

Kaity said she was just focused on being herself and showcasing her personality to Zach on The Bachelor, regardless of drama or what was happening around her.

"I didn't put too much pressure on myself," Kaity concluded.

On The Bachelor's February 27 episode, Kat, a registered nurse, told Zach before his date with Charity that she just wanted to say "hi." While she didn't want to come across as needy, Zach assured the bachelorette that he likes it when a woman takes initiative.

But Charity lamented to her fellow bachelorettes how it wasn't "the most appropriate timing for a conversation," and Brooklyn absolutely agreed.

Once Charity and Zach departed on their date, Kat announced to the group how she had just wanted to let Zach know that she missed him. Aly Jacobs pointed out that had Kat done that to her before a one-on-one date, Kat and Zach's interaction would've remained in her thoughts and bothered her.

Kat explained how if she wanted to see Zach and have a moment with him, she was allowed to do just that. But Brooklyn argued it was Charity's moment and Kat had stripped her of special time with Zach.

"That's for her to tell me, not for you," Kat snapped.

"I'm telling you how I feel, and I think it's classless," Brooklyn told her fellow bachelorette.

Kat told Brooklyn that she was being "aggressive" and using "offensive" words. She felt "extremely attacked" and complained to the cameras, "Everybody was coming at me. Who's to say who's allowed to do what and when they're allowed to do it? Why can't I have my moment?"

Kat said everyone had an individual relationship with Zach, who could potentially be a husband at the end of this process. And so Kat said if she could find a moment here or there to check in with Zach, she was going to take advantage of it.

Brooklyn then dubbed Kat "selfish" and "tacky," and the girls weren't able to bury the hatchet.

Kat accused Brooklyn of intentionally trying to hurt her feelings and attack her character, and Brooklyn snapped, "If I hurt your feelings, like, if the shoe fits, lace that b-tch up!"

Brooklyn and Kat's feud spilled over into the cocktail party, with Kat believing Brooklyn was just trying to spark drama and be "aggressive to be mean."

Both women, however, ended up receiving a rose. Zach chose to send home Aly and Jess Girod instead.

The Bachelor's next episode airs Monday, March 6 with Zach and his remaining bachelorettes traveling to Budapest, Hungary for the next round of dates.
