Arie refers to editing (probably his tweet reply to CH and a parody CH account joke from last night) in that post. Sorry I can’t bring it here.   I really do think this is a joke between the producers and Arie and not complaining.  Just more fodder for them to drum up viewers, imo.

Right! They've already aired him saying, so they just repeating themselves.

Move if you see fit.

Good thing Arie is on his way to Australia.  It won't be easy for anybody to get to him when the RS spoiler comes out... if it is bad!

His IG story an hour ago said he was on his way to Adelaide to race super trucks.

“Producers or others connected to the show,” the contract reads, “may intentionally or unintentionally make misrepresentations or omissions concerning the Series.” Basically: The producers can mislead the contestants, and that’s totally kosher.

And then there’s this clause: I UNDERSTAND, ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT PRODUCER MAY USE OR REVEAL PERSONAL INFORMATION WHICH MAY BE EMBARRASSING, UNFAVORABLE, SHOCKING, HUMILIATING, DISPARAGING, AND/OR DEROGATORY, MAY SUBJECT ME TO PUBLIC RIDICULE AND/OR CONDEMNATION, AND MAY PORTRAY ME IN A FALSE LIGHT.

Thanks for this. I will add this to the Statistics thread we carry forward each year.

A lot of this info is known because of the great work by sleuthers.  Through contacts, or close sources this information has been shared over the years. It's a great read for anyone to understand how this franchise works.

Anything is possible, and that's why I have no problem with my opinions about a planned switch.

This is the reason, I don't feel sorry for any of them.

Sean says he is not watching Arie's season but that he texts with Arie every week.  He said if the rumors are true about the Mesnick situation it is going to be very hard on Arie.

Listening to it now and I agree. I think if Peter were the Bachelor, Sienne would have gone all the way and the F4 would have been different. IMO
