The Bachelorette has finally brought along Luke P.’s exit, but with the drama, slut-shaming, and everything in between, his family is now angrily speaking out.

Bachelorette fans celebrated in unison as Hannah B. gave Luke P. the boot in last week’s episode. His eagerness to make Hannah practice abstinence led to a fallout that most of us have been waiting to see since Luke P. started showing his true colors.

But amidst all this drama, Luke P.’s family is now speaking out and stating that the show chose to show a side of Luke that doesn’t exist. His brother, Mike, spoke to Fox News and stated that Luke was singled out because of his strong faith, but I’m not entirely sure I agree with that. Long before religion was brought up, Luke P. was butting heads with the other men in the group and causing issues left and right.

He has been obnoxious for a while, at least in my opinion. But nonetheless, this is what Mike had to say about his brother’s time on The Bachelorette.

"He’s been a man of faith on that show, and I believe all season long they’ve pinned those names on him, they’ve pinned those labels, because of his stance for his faith."

Of course, if you’ve been watching you know he’s been called all sorts of things amongst them being a liar and being narcissistic. How about a back pedaler? Has anyone else noticed how every time he makes a statement and gets a negative reaction, he decides to go back on what he said? He does it every time.

Coming up on Monday is the “Men Tell All” episode which we know always brings the drama and arguments that have culminated over the course of the season. Given how last week’s episode went, I’m 100% certain a lot of the focus will be on Luke P. and his behavior, and a lot of it will be the other contestants ragging on him.

I might feel a bit bad, but if he wanted to use this platform to do good, he sure went about it the wrong way. What do you all think? Do we agree with Mike Parker or is Luke P. really as horrible as he comes off? Let’s chat in the comments!
