  • Victoria denied cheating on Johnny (emotionally or otherwise) but did admit that she's in a relationship with Greg Grippo.

Which brings us to Greg, who hopped on Instagram Stories on Thanksgiving and wrote a simple message to Bachelor Nation fans: “Send all the hate that you desire my way, but please leave my mother and fam out of this. Enjoy your Thanksgiving.”

While Victoria made it clear during the BiP reunion that she didn't cheat on Johnny with Greg, she also doubled down during an interview with Bachelor Nation's official website, saying "There was no crossover in timeline. Greg and I have been friends for a year and a half and it didn’t become romantic until we were able to explore the relationship, which was only a few weeks ago. It’s new, but because we built a relationship on a friendship, it’s been really easy to be so comfortable with him. That’s why it seems like it’s taken off fast. We had a year and a half to get to know each other."
