This 'Bachelorette' Spoiler Is Major
If you don't like Bachelorette spoilers and rumors, turn back now. Even before a single episode of this season's Bachelorette aired, people were already gossiping about JoJo Fletcher's suitor Jordan Rodgers. It all started because Jordan is the brother of famed NFL quarterback Aaron Rodgers, but then people did more digging around and it seemed like maybe Rodgers went on the show for the wrong reasons. And what really stuck out to people were the rumors about his love life, including his ex-girlfriend, Brittany Farrar, posting an Instagram in which she claimed he cheated on her. I was afraid that Fletcher would never hear about this rumor until after the show filmed and all of her roses were handed out, but according to a new spoiler courtesy of Us Weekly, Fletcher is going to ask Rodgers the question we have all been wondering about: Did he really cheat on his ex?
Bustle previously reached out to ABC for comment on Farrar's claim and was told the network is not commenting on the matter. Jordan could not be reached directly for comment.
After the first episode of this season, Farrar took to Instagram to post a photo with a caption in which she claimed,
"Riding the bench doesn't get in the way of a relationship, but cheating does. #yourpitchisntperfect @jrodgers11 #alwayswantedtobefamous #dreamscometrue #tuneinnextweekformoreBS 😝 @bacheloretteabc."
In an interview with Entertainment Tonight, Fletcher admitted that she knew Rodgers was going to be cast on the show before filming. And according to Us Weekly, she had a "chance encounter" with Rodgers' ex and “Brittany told JoJo that Jordan wasn’t a great boyfriend ... [Brittany] said there were trust issues," according to an Us Weekly source.
According to Us Weekly, Fletcher decides to confront Rodgers about the cheating rumors in the upcoming episode when the two get some alone time together. According to the Us source, "Jordan cops to flirting with other women, but he denies he was unfaithful." Of course, this is still a rumor from a source, so it will be interesting to see how things really go down.
Even though there are some red flags, I'm into Rodgers and I feel like Fletcher is too. I am rooting for them, and I have some hope that they will be able to figure this out and hopefully become a couple. My real issue here is that I can't figure out what their combined couples name would be. Is it just JoJo? Would it be JoJoJo? But I guess they have a while before they have to work that out.
