Bachelor in Paradise’s DeMario gets fired from his job following a news scandal! Jackson claims that he is innocent and his character is being assasinated!
On the fourth season of “Bachelors in Paradise”, two of the contestants, DeMario Jackson and Corinne Olympios were suspended from filming after the scandal that heated up in the media saying that they were having sexual encounters. DeMario has also been reported to have lost his job after the accusation.
The story behind the scandal
It was reported that Jackson and Olympios were getting all hot and sexy in the pool after being intoxicated and drunk. A producer couldn’t stand the extreme behavior of the two contestants he had to stop the shoot after claiming sexual misconduct at the workplace.
This is not the only show the two of them got kicked out or had problems with. Both of them had had problems with their previous shows “The Bachelor” and “The Bachelorette” as well. So, Warner Bros has decided to do a proper investigation into the case.
Jackson and Olympios’ denial of the scandal
Both DeMario and Corinne have been denying the scandal. Both of them admit to being touchy and hot but deny the intercourse between them. Since the halt of the show, Jackson had been hiding from the media but couldn’t hide out from the Inside Edition.
In the interview with Inside Edition, he claims his family’s name was being dragged down for wrong accusations. He said to the Inside Edition reporter:
My character has been assassinated, my family name has been drug through the mud. The only thing I want is for the truth to come out. I feel like the truth will be able to come out in those videos.
When asked if he would blame his partner in crime for this scandal, he said that he wouldn’t blame anyone but just want those videotapes:
I don’t blame anyone right now, all I want [are] the tapes.
He’s confident and persistently calling for the videos to be shown, whereas Corinne, unsure of the events due to being drunk, maintains nothing went wrong.
She said:
I am a victim. Although I have little memory of that night, something bad obviously took place. As a woman, this is my worst nightmare and it has now become my reality.
More on their scandal
The problem arises when a friend of Jackson who was present there during the shoot said that Corinne was tipsy but not too drunk to have no memory of it. The contestants said that she had been fooling with three other guys as well and the two of them were so happy being together that they thought that DeMario and Corinne were dating.
Reports also suggest Corinne has a boyfriend outside the show and she joined for fun. Warner Bros has announced plans for investigations and possible action.
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.
Reports also said Corinne was set to get her show after this one. However, these scandals put that in question. The future of this show and her other show is dependent on Warner Bros’ verdict. DeMario shared he was fired from his job and intends to take legal action to clear his name.
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.
Corinne threatened producers?
Jasmine Goode, the co-star of the show who had been close with Corrine, has tried to blame her dear friend for the incident as she shared her opinion:
Corinne forced herself on three male cast members, when they were unable to consent, in addition to engaging with DeMario.
After the incident everything seemed fine. There was no mention about being hurt. However, when producers tried to cut her off from drinking, she got upset and said, ‘Watch, watch what I’m gonna do.’
Ooh! Jasmine seemed to change sides all of a sudden. Is she trying to bring her so-called “close friend” down? Hard to believe, isn’t it? But that’s how this cruel world is.
However, a source has denied Jasmine’s statement claiming her absence during the incident. The source said:
Jasmine wasn’t present when the DeMario incident happened. She was doing her own thing with men down on the beach. She hooked up with three guys that night.
