Bachelor in Paradise contestant ‘appeared to be unconscious’ during alleged sexual encounter

Reality television show Bachelor in Paradise halted production after two contestants were involved in a sexual encounter where the female contestant “appeared to be unconscious”, it has been reported. The fourth season was set to premiere on 8 August but was suspended over “allegations of misconduct”, and the two contestants reported to have been dismissed from the show by Warner Bros.

Since the investigation was launched, the Daily Mail has reported that the female contestant involved in the incident may have been too drunk to consent to sexual activity. “There was hugging and kissing and touching, but before long, she seemed to go limp,” they said. “[He] kept trying to hold her up and… he appeared to be having intercourse with her.

“After he finished – which only lasted a few seconds – he lifted her out of the water and laid her on the cement, where he proceeded to have oral sex with her.

“She appeared to be unconscious. At some point, some of the crew came out and carried her off to her room. She was limp and seemed unable to walk on her own.”
