‘Bachelor’ contestant Anna Redman says she received death threats over her Auschwitz essay

Anna joined us on the latest episode of the TMZ Podcast and we asked her about the mostly negative reaction to her Instagram story of her visit to the infamous concentration camp.

In case you missed it… Anna has been getting a lot of flak online since she shared her outfit itinerary during a family trip to Auschwitz – a black dress and white sandals – along with the comment “Best packing trick… will anyone match my weirdo?”

Anna shared what she wore on each of her stops in Poland… including trips to Krakow and Zakopane, but people pounced on her as soon as they saw Auschwitz, and she says she understands why, given what happened.

The backlash was swift and harsh, to the point Anna says it cast a dark shadow over what was supposed to be a fun family holiday. Most disturbingly, some people went as far as sending her death threats, even though she deleted the post and apologized.

Anna says they told her, “You should have died” and “I hope they kill you while you’re there.”

In the midst of all this hatred, Anna says some people in the Jewish community applauded her for being proud to visit and for dressing respectably.
