After knowing a bit from Clayton’s season, I felt like we had the mindset to put our mutual interests first. Our relationship is more important than anything. We are best friends. A man who is worth it won’t make us fight over him and we wouldn’t compromise our relationship to do so.

Windey said they knew being able to empower each other was going to be key to some of the season’s stickier situations. She went on:

Gabby and myself went into it talking to one another and knowing that we had to communicate throughout all of this. We were able to communicate throughout the entire process.
