Ben Higgins has come out to defend the Bachelor nation.

You’ve probably heard by now Bachelor in Paradise has suspended filming following allegations of misconduct that took place between DeMario Jackson and Corinne Olympios.

And Higgins was quick to say he had a great experience during his time filming for the show.

He was talking on his podcast when he claimed he never felt pressure to do anything he didn’t want to do and was never forced into anything. If he was confused, they would sit with him and allow him to speak his mind and help him process. But he did reveal that there is producing that is done, and that situations happen because they need something to get out. But nothing is ever forced.

Higgins, who recently called off his engagement for Lauren Bushnell, went on to explain that show producers do not curate situations ahead of filming… and that the storylines make themselves up each and every day.

Warner Brothers is currently figuring out how to be handle the situation.
