Bachelor In Paradise contestant spills details of “wild” pool sex romp

WEEKS after production was shut down amid rumours of sexual assault, the Bachelor in Paradise saga continues with new revelations from contestants.

WEEKS after production was shut down amid scandal and rumours of sexual assault, the Bachelor in Paradise saga continues to unfold with new revelations from the contestants involved.

DeMario Jackson, who was accused of sexually assaulting fellow contestant Corinne Olympios, has given his side of the story to E! Online.

The first half of the interview, which aired yesterday, revealed how the allegations have affected Jackson’s family. Now Jackson’s talking about the night in question and saying that Olympios was actually the instigator and aggressor in their pool hook-up.

“That night was probably one of the wildest nights of my entire life,” said Jackson of the first night of filming. “Like, we went for it.”

Jackson admitted he was nervous coming into Bachelor in Paradise considering how his season of The Bachelorette (US) set him up to be the villain, complete with what Jackson claims was a “fake girlfriend” reveal. “It was crazy from the last season with the fake girlfriend,” said Jackson. “I was the villain for this, straight up. I was nervous, I was sweating [coming onto BiP].”

Olympios was also set up as the villain of her season of The Bachelor (US), and Jackson says that shared experience bonded them together. Jackson says that after “complimenting each other on being villains,” their interaction got a “little hot and heavy” as they moved away from the bar. “She got in my arms, and we started making out at the bar.”

Jackson, who claims he knew at the time that Olympios had previously hooked up with three other men that night, says it was Olympios’ idea to move to the pool. “She’s like, ‘Let’s go to the pool, let’s go hang out,’” says Jackson. “It’s crazy because when you’re a man — mostly African-American man — no matter where you’re at, you always look for things that can help you out. And at that moment, I made sure the cameras followed us. It just seemed too perfect in a sense for me, and at the point, that’s when my spidey senses got up.”

When they got to the pool, Jackson says Olympios was the aggressor and she suggested to him that she wanted oral sex after the pair had taken off their bathing suits. “I get out of the pool, and I have my legs in the pool, and I’m just hanging out … This is when she gets up out of the pool and puts her lady parts right on my face,” he said.

As far as Jackson knew, things were all right between he and Olympios the next morning. “We’re talking, and I gave her a hug,” he said. “We all went up and got breakfast together. She wasn’t mad. We were hanging out. Actually, I offered her a shot, and she said that the production had cut her off from drinking for the day.”

The rest of Jackson’s full interview will air today on E! News.
