Numerous stuff to get to right now, together with what individuals who don’t hearken to the podcast missed yesterday. I’m positive a lot of you’ve got not less than heard the rumblings about what’s occurring behind the scenes of the present (I alluded to it on my Twitter final evening), and I went over all of it in yesterday’s Daily Roundup, and briefly recapped it once more in right now’s Daily Roundup. But I’ve additionally included it under so that you can learn. It’s the fundamentals of what I do know concerning the Victoria/Johnny/Greg Grippo story. There’s quite a bit there, and there’s two totally different reportings occurring. What I’ve heard during the last 6 weeks, and what Dave Neal reported over the weekend, which is one thing I haven’t heard due to this fact haven’t reported. I’m undecided if what Dave reported will ever be confirmed to be true, however, doesn’t imply it isn’t. It’s all under right here on Page 1 after which on Page 2 I am going over among the different issues happenings on BIP each on the present and behind the scenes. It’s superb how way more thrilling what’s occurring off display screen is thrashing what’s occurring on display screen. I suppose that’s what occurs when the present you filmed in June doesn’t finish till Thanksgiving week. Plenty of time for mess to occur.

Before we get began, I undoubtedly need to point out the anti-Semitism occurring proper now that’s not acceptable. It’s disgusting. Whether it’s what Kanye stated, or the despicable indicators that have been hung over the LA freeways this previous weekend, none of it’s acceptable, as there’s no place for hate speech like that. Hate speech results in worse issues and the very last thing we’d like is extra of that occuring proper now. I do know it’s cliché, however this assertion all the time rings true in instances like these: Justice gained’t be served till these which might be unaffected are as outraged as these which might be affected. Kanye is a free cannon, and it’s good to see CAA Talent Agency dropped him, in addition to Balenciaga. But when you’re unaware of all of the issues he stated not too long ago, and also you need Adidas to drop him, signal this petition like I did:
Because you want Kim Kardashian, or perhaps as a result of he’s the daddy of your youngsters, please don’t make that as an excuse as to why you don’t need to come down on him. He’s a free cannon and he ought to undergo as many doable penalties as he can for this rubbish that he spewed out. CAA adopted by means of, so did Balenciaga. I gotta imagine Adidas will dump him any day now, however, simply to place some extra stress on them, signal the petition. It takes lower than a minute out of your day. UPDATE: Minutes after I wrote this, it broke that Adidas has reduce ties with Kanye. Good. As they need to’ve. US Weekly has Adidas’ assertion that you may learn right here.
Quite a number of issues lined in my Daily Roundup (largely yesterday), that I’ll embody right here to catch these up that may’t/don’t pay attention:
-This previous weekend, a TikToker by the title of Anna.Christinee posted a TikTok in Rome on the Colosseum with a caption that learn, “When you are at the Colosseum and see Greg Grippo and Victoria F from bachelor nation.” She then panned the digicam however you didn’t see anybody that seemed like Greg or Victoria in her video. In addition, somebody despatched Dave Neal an image of two individuals strolling in Capri that stated it was Victoria and Greg. The image was from far-off and it was from behind. There was no definitive proof it was both of them, however each individuals have advised Dave, of their eyes, it was Victoria and Greg.
-As we all know, Victoria and Johnny get engaged on the finish of Paradise. On Saturday when this was all breaking, Johnny posted a few IG tales clearly exhibiting he was in Miami, one in every of him sitting at a bar consuming a beer with a caption of “Unwell.”
-Back on Sept. fifteenth, I obtained a DM on Instagram from somebody claiming they’d heard Victoria and Johnny have been not collectively, and that it had occurred a couple of week earlier. When I requested inquiries to vet the story extra, they couldn’t present me with any proof, aside from they have been within the know, different individuals knew about too, however that was the perfect they may do. So I by no means reported it for 2 causes:
1. I’m not posting rumors anymore. Haven’t in over a yr and a half. If they may’ve offered me with one thing, or gone on file themselves to share it, I’d’ve shared. But they couldn’t/didn’t, so it’s not one thing I can run with. Especially when it’s a narrative concerning a doable damaged engagement. That’s massive information on this franchise, and I clearly don’t need to be unsuitable reporting one thing like that, so I simply left it alone. Have I discussed since Sept. fifteenth that Johnny and Victoria have been nonetheless engaged? Yes, I’ve. A number of instances. Because I can’t even trace that I obtained that e mail, or allude to bother between them, and even broach breakup rumors, as a result of then it’ll be taken as truth. I had zero proof aside from somebody who claimed to be within the know saying it was true. They might’ve been 100% proper. But I can’t run with it with none concrete proof and I had none.
2. When it involves Victoria Fuller, primarily based on what I reported about her 3 YEARS AGO, by some means individuals assume I nonetheless have a vendetta in opposition to her and that is me simply piling on as a result of I don’t like her. I’ve nothing in opposition to Victoria. Never spoken to her in my life. I reported that story again throughout Peter’s season of filming in October of 2019 as a result of I had spoken to individuals behind the scenes, who had shared with me verbally and produced proof that led me to imagine the story to be true. So I posted it. And oh yeah, the present even made a storyline of it by having one in every of Peter’s ex’s confront him about it on Victoria’s hometown. If that very same story occurred right now would I’ve? No. Because I want some kind of proof/receipts that I can share. Back then I’d run with tales if I had proof however couldn’t put up it for security functions and defending sources. So whereas I knew the story to be true, I couldn’t show it publicly. Now, I’d simply thank them for the data however not run with it.
This story proper now has nothing to do with me not liking Victoria or having some vendetta in opposition to her. Far from it. It’s a significant story in Bachelor Nation if/when a pair ends an engagement, I cowl the present, due to this fact I’m gonna discuss it.
Dave Neal then posted on his YouTube channel that Victoria cheated on Johnny twice and one was with Greg Grippo. While I didn’t hear about any dishonest allegations, I did hear 2 weeks in the past “rumblings” about Victoria and Greg Grippo being concerned collectively in some capability. Whether it was speaking/texting/courting/hooking up, I simply heard they have been in communication. Which I assumed was bizarre if she was engaged to Johnny. Dave says he spoke to sources who declare it’s completely true. That’s his story. All I do know is they’re undoubtedly involved since her breakup with Johnny. Whether it performed a task within the breakup I’m undecided.
So I believe 3 issues are in play right here:
1) Are Victoria and Johnny nonetheless engaged? No.
2) Are Victoria and Greg speaking/texting/courting/hooking up? In some capability, sure, there’s completely reality to that.
3) Was that Victoria and Greg in Italy this weekend? No affirmation of that aside from two individuals in Italy who’re followers that declare it was them that they noticed.
#3 doesn’t must be confirmed for #1 and #2 to be appropriate. Because #1 and #2 are info. Victoria and Johnny aren’t collectively anymore, as they broke up over a month in the past. And there’s undoubtedly one thing occurring with Victoria and Greg proper now. What that’s will likely be for them to outline as soon as Paradise is over. But we all know that subsequent Friday, November 4th, they’re taping the BIP reunion present, so at WORST, we’ll know then as a result of this may most actually come up. Victoria and Johnny are solely one in every of two {couples} who bought engaged on the finish of BIP, so that they’re going to be introduced on stage for an replace. They’ll clearly speak in regards to the truth they aren’t collectively anymore, however we gained’t know till the taping if something comes out or is introduced up about Greg.
So that’s the Victoria/Johnny/Greg story occurring proper now. Next Friday’s BIP reunion taping ought to positive be attention-grabbing.
