Colton Underwood Goes Off on ‘Bachelor’ Production, Says They Wouldn’t Let Him Talk About Peter Weber’s Season
Colton Underwood claims Bachelor production refused to let him talk about Peter Weber’s season.
Colton also claims the show tried to control him after his season stopping airing.
Colton Underwood’s Bachelor contract has run out, and he’s out here spilling tea on literally everyone and everything. Turns out, Colton has a lot of thoughts that he’s been holding back, specifically when it comes to Peter Weber’s messy season of The Bachelor. Apparently, Colton wanted to participate in the ~convo~ while the show was going down but says producers wouldn’t let him talk about it or write about it.
“One of my goals of the show is to break the fourth wall and I don’t think production really liked that I was on board with that,” Colton told Us Weekly. “But nobody wants to feel tricked nowadays and and I think that was my growing frustration as I was, you know, watching or not really watching but hearing about Peter season and seeing the the recaps on Twitter, and they wouldn’t let me write about it. They wouldn’t let me talk about his season because I knew I’d keep it to real. They knew that I knew too much of what was going on.”
For example, Colton is convinced that Victoria Fuller’s ex-boyfriend Chase Rice showing up as the singer on their date was a total setup.
“Victoria doesn’t show up with Chase Rice singing as her ex on accident,” he said. “The whole Victoria situation, I feel bad for that poor lady and I feel frustrated for Peter, just because there was so much confusion going on. And I feel like that’s the producers job is to sort of help guide the lead, guide the person I felt like they hung him out to dry in so many different ways and set him up for failure.”
Speaking of being set up for failure, Colton seems especially pissed that the show kept trying to “control” him even after his season ended in March 2019.
“You don’t get to still act like you have this control and this power over me. Yes, I have a contract with you. Yes, I have an NDA. Yes, I’m going to abide by that. But please, don’t do [sic] demean me. Please don’t threaten me. Please don’t make these statements saying you made me when this is America, you’re only as good as your last job. And if that was The Bachelor for me, that was The Bachelor for me and I felt like I did a good job to keep moving forward.”
Yikes.
