DeMario Jackson Details His 'Bachelor in Paradise' Encounter With Corinne Olympios

DeMario Jackson just gave his first official interview following his Bachelor in Paradise scandal and he’s opening up about his night with Corinne Olympios.

The 30-year-old reality star recounted that the evening was “one of the wildest nights” of his entire life.

In the interview, DeMario explains that he immediately connected with Corinne because they were both framed as the villains on their seasons of The Bachelor.

“We were kind of just laughing, like, ‘Oh, we’re about to dominate Paradise!’ Like homie stuff, like really, really like friends. And then, you know, we started having a little bit more fun…and had a few drinks,” DeMario told E! News.

DeMario went on to explain that from there, things “got hot and heavy” as they “made out at the bar” before heading to the pool, where he made sure cameras followed them.

He added, “It just seemed too perfect in a sense for me, and at the point, that’s when my spidey senses got up.”

DeMario then went into graphic detail about the rest of his night with Corinne when “things got wild” and what happened during the following days.

“It’s hard to see your mom cry every single day. It was very difficult,” he added. “My dad, he kept me extremely strong and kept me grounded and humble but having your mom cry every day for something that you know you didn’t do.”

Corinne Olympios Goes Shopping After 'Paradise' Resumes

Corinne Olympios is keeping busy amid news that Bachelor in Paradise will continue filming.

The 24-year-old reality star was spotted picking up some items at Marshalls on Wednesday afternoon (June 21) in Los Angeles.

It’s unclear if Corinne was asked to return to set in Mexico, but it seems unlikely considering her lawyer expressed desire to continue investigating allegations after Warner Bros. found no proof of “misconduct” in its own investigation of the alleged incident between her and DeMario Jackson.

Meanwhile, fellow contestant Alex Woytkiw recently told ET, “What happened with Corinne and DeMario, I wasn’t actually there for…As far as the actual incident with those two, I wasn’t physically there. I couldn’t see them.”

'Bachelor in Paradise' Misconduct Investigation Finds No Sexual Assault, Production Will Resume

Warner Bros. has concluded their investigation into allegations that Corinne Olympios was sexually assaulted during an encounter with DeMario Jackson during filming for Bachelor in Paradise.

A statement released moments ago concludes that no assault happened.

“As we previously stated, we recently became aware of allegations regarding an incident on the set of Bachelor in Paradise in Mexico,” Warner Bros. said in a statement Tuesday (via THR). “We take all such allegations seriously. The safety, security and well-being of the cast and crew is our number one concern, and we suspended filming so that the allegations could be investigated immediately and thoroughly. Our internal investigation, conducted with the assistance of an outside law firm, has now been completed. Out of respect for the privacy interests of those involved, we do not intend to release the videotape of the incident. We can say, however, that the tape does not support any charge of misconduct by a cast member. Nor does the tape show, contrary to many press reports, that the safety of any cast member was ever in jeopardy. Production on this season of Bachelor in Paradise will be resuming, and we plan to implement certain changes to the show’s policies and procedures to enhance and further ensure the safety and security of all participants.”

A producer originally claimed that Corinne was inebriated and that she was unable to consent to sexual conduct with DeMario.

It’s unclear if Corinne and DeMario will be back in Mexico with the rest of the cast to resume production.
