Watch out: Caitlin Clemmens and Chad Johnson fight over cheating rumor
Another day, another fight in Bachelor Nation. Here’s all the drama going on between formerly linked contestants Caitlin Clemmens and Chad Johnson.
In Bachelor Nation, life moves fast and rumors move faster. It wasn’t that long ago that we were passing on the news (confirmed by multiple reputable sources) that Bachelor alum Caitlin Clemmens and notorious “Bad Chad” Johnson were an item. The last few days have been a whirlwind, though, and now their relationship is looking very different.
On March 6, Chad appeared on The Tomorrow Show with Keven Undergaro, where he fired shots at Caitlin. He said the two were going steady for at least two months, until Caitlin flew out to visit him and film the recent Women Tell All special.
While she was spending time with him, Chad claims that Caitlin started acting very different and eventually made out with another man right in front of him. According to Chad? She’s a total cheater.
But what’s the truth? Now Caitlin Clemmens is firing back. In a recent interview with Us, she said about their supposed relationship: “I tried to remain very respectful while shutting down dating allegations by simply stating that we were not dating and I had no plans to date him.” By that definition, making out with another guy wouldn’t have been cheating.
Chad, of course, had his response. He later clarified that they “weren’t boyfriend and girlfriend as a lot of media is making out to seem” and that he even wishes Caitlin well. He does, however, continue to insist that she has misrepresented their relationship, even going so far as to say that he feels betrayed.
So who is really in the right and who is in the wrong? Unfortunately for Chad, his reputation precedes him. He got the nickname “Bad Chad” after a stint of violent outbursts that took place during his run on both The Bachelorette and Bachelor in Paradise. This doesn’t mean he hasn’t changed or that a girl couldn’t still take advantage of him, it just means that he has a history of behaving badly.
Caitlin, on the other hand. Is still a bit of a Bachelor mystery. She was cut from her season of the show fairly early on, so it’s hard to gauge whether misrepresenting a relationship or even cheating are things of which she is capable.
Whatever happened, we hope they bury the hatchet soon. This is too much drama in too little time!
