Two sex scandals rock the Bachelor mansion
The Bachelors turned into chaos when not one but two sex scandals were revealed - leaving the shows biggest love rat shook.
The Bachelors is clearly trying to rev up the drama and win back the ratings, and you have to give it to the producers they may do it, thanks to Tash.
It is Tash’s show now, and the three bachie boys are supporting members.
Tash kicks things off by telling everyone she knows a secret. The secret? Jess has a boyfriend with whom she is in an open relationship with and now Tash will tell everyone about it – only because she values transparency of course.
Tash runs to Bachelor Jed, who as per usual is dressed like he is in a tribute band to Blink 182. Jed completely forgets his rock n roll roots and responds to the news conservatively - he is horrified!
Jed immediately arranges a meeting between Tash and Bachelor Felix. Tash tells Felix that she isn’t trying to be a bitch, but she’s just a whistle-blower. She’s Daniel Hale with a manicure and I refuse to hear differently.
Felix is immediately baffled that he has been out love ratted and is shocked and appalled. Felix makes it clear that despite the fact he wants to kiss everyone, he is not up for an open relationship – what a hypocritical hot man.
Felix pulls Jess aside to discuss her boyfriend.
Tash is frankly delighted with this outcome but the rest of the girls make it clear they think - and excuse my French here - that Tash has committed a pretty dog act. Tash is too busy relishing in the drama to care.
Felix’s chat with Jess is a bit of a non-event. He won’t get rid of her immediately because a producer would strangle him for ruining such a good plot.
Jess is absolutely miffed that her big news has been broken, but it explains she has a boyfriend that is supportive of her being on the show and then starts listing general facts about him, like age, location etc.
Felix interrupts to say, “What the f*ck!” And they say straight men have trouble expressing their emotions.
Felix acts heartbroken and explains he is a picket fence kind of guy! Minus, the whole making out with everyone thing.
Jess is annoyed she was railroaded, and Felix immediately has a meeting with the wholesome Bachelor Thomas, who is mortified but tells him, “Roll with it.” There are so many meetings in this show you’d think it was a tech start-up.
Annoyingly, we must leave the drama and embrace the romance of first dates. Thomas chose Leah for the first single date, and they have a beautiful time with the occasional slightly unhinged thing said by Leah.
You know if this works out, he’ll be sharing his location settings with Leah.
Leah peppers the date with scary lines like “what does love feel like?” Thomas loves it and declares he is falling in love.
Now, back to the good stuff! Jasmine has decided the Jess drama is her drama, and she’s furious Jed doesn’t see through Tash’s game and has taken her on a single date.
Does it occur to anyone that Jed is not the emotionally intelligent mastermind? I mean he plays the drums he isn’t, like, a therapist.
We then get to watch Queen Tash romance Jed but their single date is just Tash explaining that she’s once again a whistle-blower that has been cheated on. Jed loves her honesty, and I really want him to quote song lyrics to her or something but he doesn’t.
The producers clearly know that everyone will stop watching once the open-relationship drama ends, so they throw in a group date to keep eyeballs on the screen. It’s at a theme park because they’re in Queensland, and what else do you do?
Nothing interesting happens, but Felix gives Jess the cold shoulder, and Jess is so annoyed she confides to Thomas about it. Thomas tells Jess it’ll work out if it is meant to be. His fortune cookie response seems to soothe Jess, so there you go!
Finally, Osher calls an emergency meeting before the rose ceremony. Jasmine keeps on banging on about Tash outing Jess. Suddenly, Osher pulls a Tracy Grimshaw and starts probing Tash for her feelings about Jessica – he clearly has a producer in his ear screaming, “Interest rates are going up! You need this job, Osher!”
Tash acts horrified by Jess’s relationship. Annoyingly, Jess keeps it very classy and tells Tash she is glad she’s being honest with her, There’s an outpouring support for Jess, and Jasmine keeps screaming about how awful Tash is.
Osher clearly bites off more than he can chew and decides to start the rose ceremony! If Jess goes home, there will be chaos, but there’s no way the producers will allow it.
No surprises! Jess gets a rose and people go home that have had zero screen time before this moment, so who cares.
Tash is furious that her scheme didn’t work and pulls Jedd aside to explain she’s over the drama she created. She even throws in an empty threat about leaving the show because she feels, “targeted!” Jed solves the issue by telling her, “don’t worry about it!” And because there’s no way in hell Tash is leaving this show, she acts like that is helpful advice and agrees to stay.
Meanwhile, the girls have gathered around to stare at Jed and Tash through a glass door, and they aren’t impressed. Krystal and Jasmine decide to intervene and ask Jed if he agrees with Tash’s actions! Interestingly, Jed said he does.
Tash saunters off back into the house while Jasmine tries to convince Jed he doesn’t know the whole story.
Then out of nowhere, Tash throws a grenade and says that Jasmine has an OnlyFans. Everyone goes hysterical! How does Tash know everything? Why isn’t she Prime Minister? This woman is an unstoppable force and her powers are wasted on reality television.
Jasmine is told that Tash has told everyone about her OnlyFans, so she bursts into tears and calls Tash a sociopath. It’s becomes evident this show is not about the boys anymore.
Thank you, Tash your service to reality television will never be forgotten and you just know that tomorrow Tash won’t stop.
