'Blake was so generous': Sam Frost reveals she still loves The Bachelor Garvey but his biggest fault was 'he fell for everybody'

Norcalgal wrote:Don't know if half of what I'm reading is just plain gossip but this season of BachAU is beyond believable.  I actually can believe Jess is an escort as she certainly knew how to make good old Blakie feel good!  

I am really shocked all the revelation... now Sam was drunk and calling Blake. i think they are using Sam social media and partying to hit her back. If what she said was true, he kind of switched off after the camera stop rolling...just as what Laurena said in her earlier interview that he would not talk to her off camera...then he has already a problem with Sam earlier on without her so called claimed drunkard behaviour.

I think now Blake is trying to shift the blame to Sam. I am really shocked that Shine could not be sued for giving these girls false hope to finding love. They gave them a stripper cum owner of a Notorious business. I am sure one of the insider giving the inside story could well be a stripper himself or member of the family. Some people are pitying Blake and bashing the girls. Gees, I really do not know if Blake is worth fighting for. He lied from the beginning till the end and continuously doing so, yet in the end the girls were the one who are in the wrong.

I am not sure why if it true that escort or sex worker could be accepted as contestant. Is it because Blake is a stripper so he deserve an escort or the like. I do not know what management of Shine and Ten were thinking. They could just walked away from all their lies and not accountable for. These scandals are acceptable to Australian... should the US be very cautious about how the franchise deal with the show not to abuse the system.

Sam has already said moved on... yet Blake continuously tried to make himself a saint. How can you easily change your mind like changing your panties? Now you tried to have people making claims for you from your side that you broke off because of Sam drunkard calls. I hate man who preys on the weaker sex, tried to put them down and yet never admit he himself has a problem. I really pity the mum, aunty and grandmother who were all made to look like a fool on national TV with emphasis on HONESTY as the main character to look for in a partner. YET Blake was never honest. I was initially warming up to him until he tries to discredit Sam in front of his friends and family who never really know the real side of the story except words that came out of his mouth. Hearsay from Blake is really not a good enough evidence. I can tell you if you watch his interviews after filming and before the split was announced, you will get so many version of the stories.

I am really intrigue by the interview with Kyle and Jackie O when an anonymous caller called to query him on the last 5 girls... on the sex worker occupation. He clearly looked shocked and turning round as if searching for someone. His face clearly looked as if "are the beans spilled out already?"

I love sleuthing and discussion on this forum. I am not sure if i will invest in Bach Au anymore... if the Bachelor is another stripper or involved in doggy occupation, I think I better refrain from watching. I hope the news people would dig more into the scandalous way TEN handling this competition. The contestants were cheated of a chance to find love. They wasted their time... some even have to put their business on hold to join, some quit their jobs... these people are not represented in their rights. I am really really surprised as Australian law is very protective of the customers and employees. Don't these contestants have a right? They were duper into believing that the bachelor is genuine. Can anyone shade some light to this. TQ

OMG... this guy is nuts. I really was trying to give him the benefit of the doubt but the only posts he posts are all about him.
- His heart is broken...
- His speech during episode 8 on how he needs someone to support him...
- His interview where he said how the person he loves needs to make him feel invincible...
- He is marriage material because he owns a strip club but Sam is not because she drunk dials him?
...... even if true, she still could have drunk dialed someone other than him... we have evidence of his crazy ways but not of hers. What is Australia's definition of partying? Very different from the US definition that is for sure. To me, she is just going out with friends, not dancing on a bar countertop flashing herself to everyone, or falling drunk out of a club!

Wow... So I don't own any cabbage patch dolls, I don't live with my mother, and I don't own a strip club. #dontletthefactsruinagoodstory

Now he is vehemently denying he owns a strip club. Which, if he sold it prior to the show beginning, could be very true since he is stating present tense 'owns'. It would be better for him to say "I have never owned/registered a strip club."

It is not as if he could ever say he did own a strip company or admit to negative things that are true.... it is just going to be denial, denial, denial from here on out. As much as magazines run nonsense stories (the cabbage patch dolls, LOL) there is always some truth in what is being stated.

I really feel like he used TBAU as a means to make a new life for himself: sold his car, his house, his 'company', what-have-you and make lots of AU$ on the show to start a new life.

His hashtag is really weird... Don't let the facts ruin a good story? It's a terrible story, not a good one, no matter how one tries to look at it. Reality Steve himself said this thing has been a mess, and coming from him that says something....

AllAboutLove...I am with you. This is the most selfish man on earth. I am surprised that this Miranda sympathize with him. I think what Blake is doing is really despicable. Trying to poison Louise and Sam's relationship by saying that Sam hates Louise so much. I am also surprise that Louise could believe every word he said. If Mesnick is what Ten is planning for to cover up their despicable scheme, I hope one day they all will pay the price...including Louise. It is really not easy to marry a man with a psychological issues... broken family... raised up by mum who has a partner and the partner did not like Blake...grew up surrounded by women...bullied during his younger days...doing stripping in front of women.... I think he is used to having women's attention... but his real needs is not women but from the male, especially if a man has restrained himself from having sex with all the women he has kissed passionately and then he has one hot lady in the same room as him but he was not turned on, what the hell is wrong with you?. This is not about Sam being drunk, this is him being abnormal. That is what I gather from all the discussion in this forum and also the insights from your post AllAboutLove. For Louise sake, I agree with you that hopefully he will seek help before he can have a meaningful relationship.

Wow he could still lie without any remorse. This kind of man is really sick. I think people who raised him has failed badly. I hate it when he said he is protective of Sam, now uses his friend to get back at Sam by antagonizing Sam ' s relationship with Louise. We have ample evidence he owns the company and now he denied it. This man is word than a snake.

This is why everyone dislikes Blake. He is a lier

Well unless it's a different Blake Garvey the governments ASIC website has him as the current owner of Elite Auctions,
Alpha Male Entertainment and some other company.

He should check what is publicay available info before blatantly lying! That is of course if that's him

#dontletthefactsruinagoodstory This is a saying although he messed it up a bit. It's don't let the facts get in the way of a good story. It means the stories in the articles might make for a shocking story but the facts would negate them.. like with the dolls which probably is a lie.

I thought dirtystreetpie told us he owned a male hen party agency meaning rather than just work at hen parties like he has (and so has the season 1 bach) he books them out for the hen parties and makes a cut of it. To me that's different than owning a strip club.

Also.. Were those Jess' real parents? Was Jess there so he didn't have to go without sex for 4 months or was she actually a contestant?

As bad as Blake is being portrayed in the Australian media, he should be thanking his lucky stars none of this took place in the US. The US media would slaughter him beyond what he is experiencing now.

The whole mess that we have witnessed post-show reveals that there is a definite problem with how Shine/Channel10 chose their bachelor/contestants and how they handled the Final Rose (that had no rose?!) ceremony as well as the breakup. It being in its infancy aside, TBAU has been a trainwreck. I think the lack of inside PR-spinning that the US is so adept at has created more of a problem. As Reality Steve tweeted concerning TBAU, there is no way the TBUSA would have posted a statement like the one the TBAU/Shine/Channel10 did on Blake's behalf. https://twitter.com/RealitySteve/status/517850536776069120
