On Monday night's "The Bachelor: Women Tell All," host Chris Harrison refused to respond to Rozlyn's comments about him flirting with the wife of the producer that the former contestant was rumored to have been romancing, but he's speaking out now.
During the program, Harrison made mention that the producer, who was fired for his alleged relationship with Rozlyn, was "dear to many" on the crew. The former "Bachelor" contestant responded with, "That’s news to him, especially when you were hitting on his wife in New Zealand. He thought that was crazy.”
On his Entertainment Weekly blog, Harrison called this reaction, "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."
He said he was "disappointed" that Rozlyn would drag his family into the drama. He blogs, "Beyond the fact that it’s just flat out not true, that comment was well beyond the line of decency and speaks volumes to the kind of person Rozlyn is."
He continues, "My wife, who I’ve 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’s comment as I did."
After her appearance on "The Bachelor" special, Harrison is convinced that Rozlyn is not telling the truth that her relationship with the producer was strictly platonic. "I know that there is no doubt in anybody’s mind now as to what really happened between her and our former producer," he writes. "We have multiple, detailed eyewitness accounts from the other women as well as detailed confessions from the producer himself."
