Bachelor in Paradise: Fans lash out at Ciarran Stott for latest dodgy act
Bach in Paradise fans have again unleashed on Ciarran Stott after he ditched Jess Brody for an intruder faster than you can say “Bula”.
Ciarran Stott has struck again.
The tide of public opinion has well and truly turned on the British larrikin after another night of bed-hopping his way through Paradise, leaving a trail of broken hearts behind him.
On Monday, he ditched his most recent flame Jess Brody with record speed as Kiki Morris entered Paradise, telling Kiki what he’d had with Jess was purely sexual, and leaving Jess to approach him for an explanation after he’d swept the new entrant off on an overnight stay.
And as he shrugged Jess off after days of poolside romance, viewers were not happy.

“I don’t want this to bloody hinder anything between us,” the long-haired Mancunian began after Jess pulled him aside for a chat after his date with Kiki.
“I still want to be a mate to you … I’m clearly doing what I want to do, so just crack on,” he said, adding an infuriating line: “Like, we’re not boyfriend and girlfriend.”
The dodgy move comes 24 hours after he spent the night with his ex Renee Barrett behind Jess’ back, and days after stringing both Abbie Chatfield and Cass Mamone along at the same time.

Earlier in Monday’s episode, he had gloated about his popularity to the camera.
“I’m definitely feeling like a bit of a ladies’ man and a bit of, you know, hot property in this Paradise,” he said, grinning.
“Everybody wants a bit of me. All the girls want to take me on dates, want to get to know me. Yeah, buzzing. Nice one, ladies. Keep it coming.”
While it didn’t seem as though Ciarran’s reputation could sink any further among fans this season, Twitter again lit up with disappointment as the loveable larrikin from Angie’s season slips further and further away.

Even Osher weighed in with a subtle dig:
What's the collective noun for a couch full of Ciarran's exes? #BachelorInParadiseAU

Ciarran’s fall from grace occurred almost instantly in Fiji.
The first barrage of outraged tweets hit after the first two episodes, when he was seen to be pursuing a number of girls at once – Cass Mamone, Abbie Chatfield and Jessica Brody.
Eyebrows were raised even higher when his ex-girlfriend, fellow Bachelor alum Renee Barrett, showed up on the Fijian island and told everyone he’d actually left The Bachelorette – and Angie – in order to be with her.
And when a carefree Ciarran was seen hopping into bed with his ex while Jess was wrapped around a toilet bowl with a severe case of gastro, viewers again unleashed.
Tonight, the knives were out again, and something tells us it won’t be the last time.
Bachelor in Paradise continues Tuesday night from 7.30 on Channel 10.
