In a statement released to E! News, the reality star breaks her silence days after production on “Bachelor in Paradise” was suddenly halted over allegations of misconduct on set, and an internal investigation was launched by “Warner Bros”.

“I am a victim and have spent the last week trying to make sense of what happened the night of June 4,” the 24-year-old Miami native shares. “Although I have little memory of that night, something bad obviously took place, which I understand is why production on the show has now been suspended and a producer on the show has filed a complaint against the production.“

Corinne continues,

“As a woman, this is my worst nightmare and it has now become my reality. As I pursue the details and facts surrounding that night and the immediate days after, I have retained a group of professionals to ensure that what happened on June 4 comes to light and I can continue my life, including hiring an attorney to obtain justice and seeking therapy to begin dealing with the physical and emotional trauma stemming from that evening.”

Similarly, over the weekend, Warner Bros. Television, which produces Bachelor In Paradise for ABC, announced production had been shut down due to “alleged misconduct,” though the studio did not offer any further details on the matter.

The incident revolves around allegations made by a producer who filed a complaint questioning whether the Olympics was able to give consent for a sexual encounter with fellow contestant DeMario Jackson.

Insiders said that the producer was not present when the encounter occurred, had not viewed footage of the encounter, and only heard about it second or third-hand. In their statement after the news broke, Warner Bros. said,

“We have become aware of allegations of misconduct on the set of Bachelor in Paradise in Mexico. We have suspended production and we are conducting a thorough investigation of these allegations. Once the investigation is complete, we will take appropriate responsive action.”

Bachelor in Paradise was originally scheduled to return on Aug. 4 on ABC. Jackson says in his statement,

“It’s unfortunate that my character and family name has been assassinated this past week with false claims and malicious allegations. I will be taking swift and appropriate legal action until my name is cleared and, per the advice of legal counsel, will be seeking all available remedies entitled to me under the laws.”
