We love a good old-fashioned spy story… and The Bachelorette is serving up drama, romance, lols and mystery, all in its premiere episode!
Angie Kent’s brother Brad slid into the house surreptitiously, hiding amongst the eager lads fighting for the blonde bombshell’s heart – and managed to stir up some serious drama while he was in there.
WATCH: Angie Kent’s been dragged into some drama of her own…
What those of us sitting at home watching were well aware of is that “Mark” (aka undercover brother Brad) was in the mansion acting as a spy for his big sis – and tensions between the boys exploded after Brad slipped Angie some info about someone who wasn’t there for the right reasons.
“The fella running for Noosa mayor… Some of the fellas heard him say, like, if he got a rose, he’d hand it back,” Brad told Ange.
“Are you f*cking kidding me?” we (and Angie) replied.
“That’s what I heard. I didn’t hear him say that. Apparently he said that to someone. I didn’t hear it, but yeah. Someone said that if he got one, he’d say no.”
Obviously, Angie had to call out the fella running for Noosa mayor (also known as Jesse) – and after he blatantly lied to her, swearing that he definitely did not say what we all just watched him say, all hell broke loose as the politician blamed Jamie the puppy-bringing firefighter for letting slip.
“Jamie, why did you tell Angie that I was given a rose and I wouldn’t…I’d say no, I’d give it back to her?”
“I never said that… Guys, I’ve had two minutes with Angie all night. Why the hell would I talk about another dude?”
And Jamie was preeeetty devo.
Cue the tears. Literal tears.
(This isn’t shaming, we are 100 percent here for people showing their emotions. But forgive us if we were… surprised… at just how affected Jamie was by the accusations.)
“I’m the most genuine guy in here, and for someone to come after me like that, that’s low,” he explained.
“When people don’t trust me, I feel worthless. It’s brought out this negative energy in me that wasn’t even in me… I feel like crying right now. And I did nothing wrong. I put a lot of effort into this sort of process, just for someone to just come and… ..just do that to me and blindsided me. I just got blindsided. You know?”
We know, Jamie. We know.
“I run into burning buildings for a living, and it doesn’t affect me. And then someone tries to manipulate my emotions like that, and… I don’t know. It’s just hard. I’m just pretty upset. I don’t even know how to come back from this, eh?”
Oh dear… You’ll be okay, Jamie!
