Bachelor in Paradise 7 - USA - Contestants - Discussion - *Sleuthing Spoilers*

On Monday night's episode, Pieper came off very young - I think she is 24? Lots of learning to do. And if she's going to play her audience, she needs some acting lessons.

Exclusive: Pieper James is speaking out amid the fallout from her #BachelorInParadise drama with Brendan Morais and Natasha Parker. ️ https://t.co/MoBAnOwiiH

Oh brother! I'm tired of "that's not who I am" BS. Yes that's who you are, if you behaved that way, and you said those words, that's exactly who you are.

They all were excited to go to BIP, had conversations with each other, then turn on each other with their vindictive ways.

Brendan and Piper should have been tossed out, they had more contact with each other where as Chris only met the other ladies. This happens every season, they all know who's going and they all talk about it. I don't think Chris and Alana deserved to be pushed out. jmo's

@GuardianAngel I totally agree with you. I felt really bad for both Chris and Alana! The two of them could have handled things better with Jessinia, but besides that, I don't see that they really did anything wrong. It was hard for me to watch, it was like a pack of wolves with everybody jumping on Chris!

@George1218 I didn't feel all that bad for Alana

I wrote during the show...that was straight up bullying...and it was because they weren't in the in crowd. I believe Blake mentioned the same thing. Yeah, Chris didn't handle it great, but there was no reason for the way they were treated, particularly Alana. They cut her off and didn't even let her speak. It was very dismissive and uncalled for. I was very disappointed in Riley and Joe.

In Chris' apology he mentions he's not confrontational. I know exactly what he means. I'm the same way. I have to be very angry to voice my opinions, otherwise if there's a situation that doesn't involve me I'm too polite and try to diffuse the situation or don't say anything.

He stood there and let them all ream him over the coals.

I wasn't crazy about the way Alana behaved either at the time, she was ticked she had to leave but now that I know he met her in a group and there was nothing going on, she had every right to be mad but she shouldn't have blamed him imo. She could have stayed and voiced her opinion to the others. Rather than everyone having a perception of her that wasn't true.

I agreed with a lot of what Chris said. I thought that what he did to Jessenia was wrong but also think that how Joe and Riley acted towards both of them was also wrong and anyone else who ganged up on them. Alana wasn't exactly the best when it came to her own actions but it certainly didn't rise up to being shipped out of Paradise or the reactions that Chris was talking about. Death threats? That's just ridiculous, as are hateful tweets/replies toward any of them. They're all real people and not just a character you see on TV.

Brandon's apology seemed to be in response to all of his lost followers instead of really seeing the light. I'm equally unimpressed by Pieper. They can both go away as far as I'm concerned. I have zero interest in following either one of them.

Yeah, I don't understand people. WTH is wrong with you that you need to post death threats on someone's SM because of some stupid reality show. Yes, I find myself occasionally yelling at my tv because stuff they do on the show is tasteless/stupid/nasty/uncalled for, but once the show is over I go on with my life. I may talk about it with my friends who watch and b*tch some more, but why would I waste my time and energy on someone who I watched on a highly manipulated and edited TV show? In the grand scheme of things, it's the least of my troubles. If they expended that energy into something productive, the world and their own lives would probably be a lot better.

Re the article. What are some of the "things they have to work through"? They both knew they were going to BIP, they met around 10 times prior to, according to Piper, Brendan posted this on his IG in May,

When she got there she went straight to Brendan with her date card, so it appears to me, they knew exactly what they wanted. What's changed now, that they have to work things out. It sounds like she's blaming him. jmo's

Maybe she's mad that he didn't give her a tutorial on BIP.
