DeMario Jackson Responds to Allegations With Legal Action

2017-06-15 21

More like Bachelor in Nightmare... DeMario is now responding to the legal action taken by fellow contestant, Corinne, who is claiming to be the victim in an alleged sexual misconduct situation that led to the cancellation of The Bachelor in Paradise.

According to Us Magazine, DeMario Jackson released a statement saying "its unfortunate that my character and family name has been assassinated this past week with claims and malicious allegations..."

The former Bachelorette contestant plans on lawyering up to defend himself.

Us Magazine reports that he says, "I will be taking swift and appropriate legal action until my name is cleared and, per the advice of legal council, will be seeking all available remedies entitled to me under the laws."

Corrine has hired a celebrity lawyer and claims that she's been trying to make sense of the reported blacked out intimacy that took place between her and DeMario, but has decided "something bad obviously took place" for ABC to cancel production.

It was supposed to be a fun, summer TV program in paradise, but it has certainly involved into a dark and stormy story.
