Ashley Iaconetti<\/strong>\u00a0is clearing the air surrounding\u00a0Maria Georgas<\/strong>\u2019 \u201cstrange theory\u201d about Maria\u2019s edit on season 28 of\u00a0The Bachelor<\/em>.<\/p>\n

\u201cShe has this conspiracy theory that\u00a0Nick<\/strong>\u00a0[Viall<\/strong>]\u00a0and I got together with\u00a0Sydney<\/strong>\u00a0[Gordon<\/strong>], we brought Sydney to production and were like, \u2018Hey, this is our friend Sydney. She\u2019d be great to take down the villain, or something, of this season,\u2019\u201d Ashley, 36, explained on the Wednesday, May 1, episode of her and\u00a0Ben Higgins<\/strong>\u2019\u00a0\u201cAlmost Famous\u201d podcast.<\/p>\n

Noting that she \u201cdidn\u2019t even know who Maria was\u201d before Maria appeared on\u00a0Joey Graziadei<\/strong>\u2019s\u00a0Bachelor<\/em>\u00a0season, Ashely said the basis of Maria\u2019s theory is that she, Nick, 43, and Sydney, 28, were photographed together at a September 2022 book signing.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe took Nick and [his wife]\u00a0Natalie<\/strong>\u00a0[Joy<\/strong>] to [Sydney\u2019s] vintage store in Newport, may have taken a picture there. Who knows, but that was it,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n

Ashely, who was\u00a0friends with Sydney\u00a0before she joined\u00a0Bachelor Nation, told listeners that \u201cNick and Sydney had not spoken, have not spoken since this event in September 2022,\u201d adding, \u201cHe has absolutely no relationship with Sydney.\u201d<\/p>\n

Maria shared her theory\u00a0during an appearance\u00a0on Wednesday\u2019s episode of the\u00a0\u201cCall Her Daddy\u201d podcast, revealing that she and Nick have known each other since around 2017 and that he speculated she would become a\u00a0Bachelor<\/em>\u00a0\u201cvillain\u201d if she joined the franchise.<\/p>\n

\u201cSo, in her conspiracy, he wanted to make sure she was the villain and then hired this girl, Sydney, for the producers to bring her down,\u201d Ashley stated on her podcast. \u201cIt\u2019s not an accurate theory whatsoever. Nick does not know Sydney. In fact, Nick thought Sydney was absolutely ridiculous on the show and called me to talk about how she is in real life.\u201d<\/p>\n

Maria and Sydney were at the center of\u00a0The Bachelor\u00a0<\/em>season 28 drama\u00a0after Sydney accused Maria of downplaying fellow contestant\u00a0Madina Alam<\/strong>\u2019s insecurities about being the oldest woman in the house. Despite Maria apologizing for her comments, Sydney continued to accuse her of verbal abuse and causing drama among the contestants.<\/p>\n

As Ben, 35, pointed out, it was Sydney who ended up\u00a0becoming the season\u2019s villain, stating, \u201cMaria, kind of, has shined and taken off from this experience.\u201d (Sydney was ultimately eliminated by Joey, 28, during a two-on-one date with Maria in Malta.)<\/p>\n

Poking fun at Ashley\u2019s rumored involvement in the drama, Ben joked that he thinks she would be \u201cpretty good\u201d at creating a conspiracy. \u201cYou could really think it through,\u201d he stated. \u201cYou\u2019re a gamer, and this one was not thought through.\u201d<\/p>\n

While Ashley considers herself a \u201cmastermind\u201d when it comes to drama, she reminded listeners that the show\u2019s producers are the ones pulling the strings. \u201cThey get paid to actually be masterminds,\u201d Ben added. \u201cThey get paid big bucks for it.\u201d<\/p>\n

During her \u201cCall Her Daddy\u201d interview, Maria revealed that a scene of herself and Sydney making amends was never aired on the show. \u201cWe hugged it out. We were good,\u201d she told host\u00a0Alex Cooper<\/strong>. \u201cLater on that night is when she was like, \u2018I feel bullied by you.\u2019 You hugged me earlier that day. \u2026 It was crazy. But again, because I know she is a good person, deep down, I think that again, in this environment, it just brought out the worst.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
