@bluwavz thanks for posting all those. I think he'll do well with his book.

In the ET post there is an interview with Lauren Zima which is in a previous article that I read on the other page, but just listening to him and what he's been through being labelled as gay and a virgin, is pretty sad that there are those who have to go through that.

I'm glad he has recovered, although still looks not 100%, I'm sure it will take time to build up his strength.

He couldn't be with his family but he certainly IMO couldn't have been in a more loving environment to help him get through this.

I always liked Colton, he's a good guy IMHO.

Colton Underwood is officially out of contract with ABC — and he’s not holding back when talking about #TheBachelor. https://t.co/U3V2qoayRr

#BachelorNation's Colton Underwood and Cassie Randolph are still following some conventional steps — and not rushing into an engagement. https://t.co/XptPLKUNt5

I can't get the US weekly video to play completely through for me. Anyone else having that problem? It's freezing up just when he's talking about the producers demeaning him. TIA

@Jolena I worked for me without problems. Maybe reboot and try again.

Once again, sleuthing usually proves to be correct. If anyone wasn't sure if TPTB aren't your friends, I recommend reading this whole article.

“There were lines crossed in my relationship with Cassie that I found out about after the show. There were things that they said and did that compromised my relationship with her. Now, it makes so much sense that she decided to leave,” he stated. “If you’re gonna make a show, at least give me a fair shot to end up with the girl that I’m falling in love with. Your job as a show is to make us come together. I understand we did [come together] at the end, but I had to take it into my own hands and be extreme with it. They value their TV show more so than the love story that they always promote. Actually, there were some things you did that drove us apart and if I didn’t stand up for myself, I probably wouldn’t be with Cassie today.”

I just got the book, and of course, I immediately skipped ahead to Portugal.

We got most of it right last year, but there’s a lot of details we didn’t know about. For instance, Matt stayed the whole time they were in Portugal and kept Cassie company while Colton was breaking up with the others, and Colton met with him before they left for Spain.

Blushing as I post this:

Colton Underwood says erections common while filming 'The Bachelor'
Erections are a common feature of “The Bachelor.”
That’s the naughty little secret that former bachelor Colton Underwood reveals in his memoir “The First Time.”
The former-NFL wannabe writes that “intimate moments included real physiological responses.”
“They weren’t on TV, but boners are a real, regular, and unavoidable part of the show. The producers are sensitive to guys who find themselves in a hard situation.”
The reality star, 28, says that a seaside frolic in Thailand with now-girlfriend Cassie Randolph swelled into a tumescent pickle.
Underwood writes that while splashing in the sea producers called him out for an interview but “I wasn’t ready to get out of the water.”
Thankfully, a producer picked up on what the dilemma might be and discreetly communicated to the crew that Underwood needed a little more time in the ocean.
Meanwhile, Underwood has fully recovered from his coronavirus infection. The reality TV star first disclosed that he had contracted COVID-19 on March 20th.
“Tested again and I now have the anti-bodies,” Underwood tweeted over the weekend. “I’m working with the doctor to find ways I can help donate blood for both research and other people.”

I don’t believe Cassie will marry him. I hope for their fans that she does but, I’ll believe it when I see it. Watch her face when they are asked when they will get engaged/married. All IMO.
