MissGriss - RS updated his post - Joe and Serena are engaged. I read through his whole post earlier and I have to admit, I remember very few of these names. Once the season starts and I see faces, I'll probably remember most of them. There are just too many of them and there are so many similar names. I can't keep up. I remember Serena. I think she's Canadian. I remember her being put off by the tantric yoga date with Matt; she wasn't too interested. I wonder if either of them are open to relocating. Joe did move to California for a time to be with blonde taxidermy lady whose name currently escapes me. She and Serena look nothing alike I guess he doesn't have a specific type. |

Based on the timing of Becca's podcast episode, it is likely that the podcast was recorded before the episode(s) with his really bad behavior aired. Or, maybe she knew what had happened on Bach'ette and she was trying to get ahead of the story. Also, she was with him pretty soon after filming of BIP started - filming is 3 weeks and ended on 6/29 - and she didn't know a thing about him, since the Bach'ette didn't premiere until after she was already in Mexico. Her defending him sounds like damage control. She did the same thing with Garrett.
Joe's former girlfriend is Kendall. She's going to be in BIP too.
There were lots of rumors during Matt's season that Serena was his pick for F1 early on. She might have been his pick if she hadn't left. I liked her a lot. She's very attractive, but also didn't seem so flighty and shallow like so many of the girls. She's definitely more mature than Rachel. I'm not surprised Joe ended up with her (for now, at least). He's always seemed like a pretty grounded, sweet person and so does she.

She's from Toronto, which is just 1 1/2 hrs by plane from Chicago, so it's an easier long-distance relationship than California.  |

IIRC, Reality Steve gave a list of pretty much everyone who’s going to be on BIP this season. It’s A LOT - like 40. |

Reality Steve posted final spoilers for this season a while back (and then updated one of the couples, who broke up) Brandon Jones & Serene Russell (engaged) Johnny Dephillipo & Victoria Fuller (engaged) Tyler Norris & Brittany Galvin (left as a couple, but have since broken up) Michael Allio & Danielle Maltby (left as a couple) Logan Palmer & Kate Gallivan (broke up) Aaron Clancy & Genevieve Parisi (broke up) I'm thrilled for Michael and Danielle!  I really like him and she's one of my favorites from this franchise. I was sort of bummed when she and Wells didn't get together. I hope that relationship works out. They both deserve someone nice. I think it's interesting that, almost every season, one or both of the first two onto the beach (always a guy and a girl) end up in a LTR at the end of the season. I think there's only been one season where neither ended up with anyone. Last season, the first two were, IIRC, Noah and Abigail, who are still together. Apparently, there will be 44 total people on the show this season, which is a record. RS has some spoilers, like the ones above, but not details on everyone. That's just too many people to keep track of. |

I’m excited, too, about Michael and Danielle! I would love it if they ended up together long term.

In his podcast this week (10/6), Reality Steve tells the true story about what happened with Salley as told to him by people who know (I’m assuming from Salley’s camp). The story starts about 7 or 8 minutes into the podcast.
Bottom line, all of the main events happened, but the details were all BS, and the reason she didn’t get on the plane had to do with a work emergency and not because of her ex.

I listened to the podcast too and, if it's true (and I have no reason to believe it's not), Salley really got screwed over by producers. I can't blame her for, apparently, turning around and leaving when she hears what they did. I don't understand why they felt the need to be SO nasty. |

I saw Wells on a Chicks in the Office interview that apparently took place the day before the show aired last week, and he was bragging about the skit and how hilarious it was, He actually said it was his best work so far. That makes me seriously question his judgement.

That makes me seriously question his judgement. Yeah, that's disappointing. Really, he's a "company man" now. He knows who's signing his paychecks. Still, it's disappointing that he would take part in that so willingly.
As Reality Steve always says, if you want accurate info, don't go to one of the ABC-sanctioned podcasts.
ETA: Now that Sierra's out of the way, when does Danielle show up on the beach? I'm waiting for that relationship!

Me, too, on the Danielle and Michael relationship. I’m glad he cooled things off with Sierra before Danielle arrived so that no one could accuse him of using her as a placeholder.

I think Sierra is very sweet, but I feel like she doesn't have enough life experience to be the right partner for him. She just feels very young (I don't know how old she is).

I don’t know her age either, but I think she IS quite a bit younger than he is. I remember them having that conversation about her being an old soul, and I think it was in the context of him being surprised that she seemed much more mature than her age.

Drama over the weekend involving Victoria Fuller. A TikToker posted that she was in Rome and saw Victoria and Greg Grippo together at the Colosseum. Then someone else sent Dave Neal a picture (from the back) that they said was the two of them walking down a street in Rome.
On his daily roundup today, Reality Steve said he’d been told back on September 15th that Victoria and Johnny had broken up and that he’d also heard rumors that she was hanging out with Greg, but he didn’t report either thing, because the people he talked to couldn’t back things up with receipts.
Dave Neal apparently has someone he trusts who told him Victoria and Johnny broke up because she had cheated on him with Greg, so RS thinks the breakup and Greg relationship are probably true. He’s not sure about the Rome thing but thinks it would be a ballsy move to go off on a romantic Roman holiday with Greg while BIP is still airing and about to end with her getting engaged to Johnny.
The BIP reunion show films in about 10 days, so RS figures we’ll hear about all of this from what leaks from the filming of that.

Totally not surprised about Victoria. That seems like par for the course with her. She's cutting a path of destruction through the guys of Bachelor Nation. She shacked up with Chris Soules for a while during the pandemic too. BN really is so incestuous though. If someone ever tests positive for an STD and has to notify former partners, half of the people from these shows will end up getting notified  It's like that old shampoo commercial "They'll tell two friends and then they'll tell two friends and so on and so on and so on...." |

Reality Steve received a video from someone where you can pause it and see the faces (if you have a magnifying glass LOL), and it definitely is Victoria and Greg. She's such an interesting person the way she plays all innocent and says things like she's a one-man woman and super loyal and then shows by her behavior that it simply isn't true. (Though I suppose it's possible that she's a serial monogamist who just has a really fast turnaround time.  ). /photo/1 |

I hate photos without faces. Did you click on the photo? It shows Victoria’s face very clearly and 1/2 of Greg’s face (enough to see that it’s him if you zoom in). Same with the video. You have to look at it on a computer so that the picture is big enough and pause at the right points to see faces, but they are there. |

Like RS said, drama just follows Victoria everywhere. I was never Greg's biggest fan, but I definitely feel sorry for him in this situation. She's great at playing sweet and innocent, but she's horrible. He'll just be another in a huge pile of guys she's used and discarded after she moves onto someone else.

RS posted on Thursday that Aaron seems to have a girlfriend. From her Instagram, it looks like they were dating before Paradise. There are pictures of them on vacation together in Mexico a year ago, so it's not a new relationship (though it may have been an on and off thing). While it's not uncommon for both the men and women to have people they are dating before going on the show, it makes RS wonder if Aaron was just playing Genevieve the whole time so he could stay on the beach, and that's why he ran so hot and cold. Here's a link to the page where he talks about it and posted the pictures from her Instagram. (She's not a Bachelor Nation person, so he covered her face in the pictures and blanked out her name and IG ID.) The discussion of Aaron is a ways down the page after the intro and the player for the podcast. realitysteve.com/2022/11/10/podcast-312-interview-with-ali-appleby-miss-dallas-teen-usa-does-a-bip-guy-have-a-new-gf/ |

With the way that Cat (or is it Kat) is behaving, it breaks my heart that sweet John Henry gets engaged to her. Run, John Henry, run!
Also Aaron and Eliza leave engaged. That one’s way less shocking!
