‘The Bachelor: Women Tell All’ 2010 spotlighted Rozlyn and her inappropriate relationship<\/em><\/p>\n

Last night’s The Bachelor: Women Tell All<\/em> was the usual hum-drum of women being catty, jealous, defensive and hurt.<\/h3>\n

But the controversy surrounding Rozlyn and producer Ryan Callahan is what everyone tuned in for.<\/p>\n

Sadly, The Bachelor<\/em> & ABC did not bring Callahan on set to give his side of things, because that would really have been juicy. However, we did get to hear Rozlyn TRY to explain her side of things, but with the mounting “evidence” against her, it was just too hard to give her any credibility.<\/p>\n

The thing I noticed about Rozlyn was that she always had that dumb look on her face, like she was shocked by what people were saying. Mouth agape, eyes wide, half smile…her body language spoke volumes. I think if she had been innocent of the allegations she would have been shaking her head, rolling her eyes and of course, explaining her actions. She really did none of the above. Instead she diverted the subject, swearing on her child’s life, accusing host Chris Harrison of hitting on Callahan’s wife, etc. You know, typical things that guilty parties do when they are clearly guilty.<\/p>\n

\"\"Whether she had a “sexual” relationship with him, I don’t know. None of us do. I think things happened, just maybe not intercourse. I think Rozlyn may have been toying with him to gain inside information or whatever. I think she is used to playing dirty. Using her sexuality to get what she wants. And I am sure it usually works for her.<\/p>\n

Throughout this entire drama I have gone back and forth about who I believe. I believed ABC when the episode of her being kicked off the show first aired, then I believed her after she came forward explaining herself. Now, once again, I am on the side of the show, believing that she DID, in fact, have an inappropriate relationship.<\/p>\n

The Bachelor host Chris Harrison has since blogged about<\/a> “The Bachelor Women Tell All”<\/em> and he gives his side of the story. He also confronts Rozlyn’s claims that he “hit on” Ryan Callahan’s wife while in New Zealand:<\/p>\n

I was looking forward to this Women Tell All <\/em>special more than any other we have ever done. There were so many stories I wanted to talk about. I was happy to get the chance to hear Elizabeth\u2019s thoughts on the games she played. I think she realizes what she was doing but I just don\u2019t think she\u2019s fully ready to admit it publicly. I enjoyed getting Michelle\u2019s side of the story. I think this process was overwhelming to her and she was very much out of her element. Gia is a great example of somebody who will leave our show with a much better understanding of who she is and what she really wants in life. I think she now knows she can love and, more importantly, be loved by a good man. Seeing Ali and Jake together again was very interesting. If you\u2019re an old-school Bachelor <\/em>fan you\u2019ll remember season 2\u2019s Women Tell All<\/em>. In that show, our Bachelor Aaron confronted a woman he let go named Gwen. You could tell that there was love there, everybody felt it, but for some reason life just got in the way and it didn\u2019t happen. I got the same feeling watching Jake and Ali together again. Who knows if she had stayed if she would have been the one but it just seemed like they let life get in the way of what could have been a good thing. <\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Obviously the most talked-about part of the reunion show was Rozlyn\u2019s return. I truly think the two segments with Rozlyn speak for themselves and I know that there is no doubt in anybody\u2019s mind now as to what really happened between her and our former producer. We have multiple, detailed eyewitness accounts from the other women as well as detailed confessions from the producer himself. There was one random comment Rozlyn made at the end of our interview while she was desperately backtracking after being confronted with the overwhelming evidence against her that I do want to address. During the interview I made mention that it was unfortunate we had to fire a guy that was a \u201cdear friend to many\u201d. Her reply to this was the following: \u201cThat\u2019s news to him, especially when you were hitting on his wife in New Zealand. He thought that was crazy.\u201d That night I told her \u201cI clearly won\u2019t dignify that with a response.\u201d The reason I didn\u2019t respond immediately is that\u2019s exactly what she would have wanted from me. It was a desperate attempt by a very desperate woman to create a diversion and deflect the spotlight from herself as she had done several times throughout the interview when she felt backed into a corner by the overwhelming truth. I was extremely disappointed that Rozlyn would stoop to that level and bring my family and me into this already sad and unfortunate situation. Beyond the fact that it\u2019s just flat out not true, that comment was well beyond the line of decency and speaks volumes to the kind of person Rozlyn is. My wife, who I\u2019ve been with since I was 18 and have been married to for over 16 years, was in the audience that night and got as big a laugh out of Rozlyn\u2019s comment as I did.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Rozlyn\u2019s behavior at the Women Tell All <\/em>special put everything in an alarming new light. She\u2019s used her son as a human shield several times before in attempts to distract from the real reason she was asked to leave our show, but during the interview she said, \u201cOn my child\u2019s life, that never happened.\u201d The entire audience gasped\u2026 nobody could believe she just said that. If you\u2019re a parent as I am, you know exactly what I\u2019m talking about. That\u2019s when I knew the interview was essentially over.<\/strong><\/p>\n

It is my hope that none of this nonsense takes away from what is really important here and that\u2019s what\u2019s going to take place next Monday night during our finale. Trust me when I tell you it\u2019s a moment you don\u2019t want to miss. Although I won\u2019t tell you everything, I will tell you now that Jake is extremely happy and very much in love. Is there a proposal? How does it all go down? You\u2019ll have to watch one of the most emotional, romantic finales in Bachelor <\/em>history to find out. I very much look forward to reading your comments this week. As usual you can find me on twitter @chrisbharrison<\/a> or Facebook<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Do you find The Bachelor & ABC more believable – or Rozlyn?<\/p>\n
