00:00Things with you and Stacey are intense, to say the least.

00:04What were your expectations of Stacey going into this season?

00:07The hardest part I have about Stacey is I see her and I take her for what she presents to me.

00:15Because she comes across very genuine.

00:17I think it's that Midwest in her.

00:18You know, she's from Detroit.

00:20She's got that Ashley, you know, like Bobby's mom in Bobby's world.

00:24So she has that sort of charm that I think, oh, she's obviously going to be honest and genuine with me.

00:29So then when there are moments that contradict that, and I'm like, wow, like I feel like she's tricking me.

00:35Like I feel like I'm falling for something with her.

00:38And that is why I get really upset because I come in and I try to be as honest with her as possible.

00:43And I just want it reciprocated back to me.

00:45Sure.

00:46And it just feels like she's trying to trick me like an okie doke.

00:49Did you ever find out if she was officially divorced?

00:53I may or may not have.

00:54Okay, you may or may not have.

00:55Okay, were you, did you know that she was getting back together with her ex-husband?

00:59At least at this point early in the season.

01:01Babe, shock and awe.

01:01I had no idea.

01:03And the only way is because I started seeing little things with her having a ring on.

01:07I was like, that's not costume jewelry.

01:09Sure.

01:10You know, that's not a cubic zirconium.

01:11At least I hope it's not.

01:12So, you know, like something else is going on here.

01:15Yeah.

01:15Were you surprised that she wasn't, well, probably not that she wasn't forthcoming about that either?

01:20Yeah, it was tough because I'd seen her.

01:22I've seen her periodically over the last few months.

01:25And I would just have thought she would have just like, oh, by the way, you know, Timo and I are back together.

01:29Yeah.

01:30And that didn't happen.

01:31So when she sort of sprung it on us, I was like, wow, where did that come from?

01:35Sure.

01:36You know, she said that TJ wanted to come back onto the show and apologize and explain himself.

01:40Did you ever think about just reaching out to him yourself and, you know, getting some answers as well?

01:45Well, considering the interaction that I had in L.A., Giselle and I had with his friends, I just have a hard time believing that, honestly.

01:54Believing him?

01:54Believing that TJ wanted to come back.

01:56I think if he did, then he would have.

01:59I do think that they're still having some business arrangement issues.

02:04Okay.

02:04I think that's still happening.

02:05So do you do believe that she promised him 50% of her Potomac earnings?

02:10Let me tell you, I saw the paperwork.

02:12You saw the paperwork?

02:13Now, I zoomed in.

02:16Giselle and I both, so it's the two of us like this.

02:18We're literally holding the phone like this, like staring, reading everything line for line.

02:22And the information in that document, that legal document, is stuff that you would only know if you were on the inside.

02:28Wow.

02:29Yes.

02:29It wasn't something he could have just arbitrarily like brought up and said.

02:33It was actual intimate details.

02:34That's nuts.

02:36I know.

02:37I tried to grab my phone and take the picture, you know, but she was real quick with it.

02:40Real quick.

02:41She was like, no, no, no.

02:42Wait a second.

02:42I don't want to be in this mess, but I want you to know I'm trying to clear my friend's name.

02:45Sure.

02:46That he's online.

02:47Right.

02:47Well, because I'm sure if all that is true, he must be really upset about everything that went down.

02:52I would imagine.

02:52Yeah, I would imagine too.

02:53Yeah.

02:54What would it take for you to have trust in her again?

02:59It's just, I never give up on anybody.

03:01I really don't.

03:02Even my own dad, who I have no relationship with, right?

03:05So because that is my litmus, if I can have space for him, I will always have space for Stacey.

03:12So it's just a matter of her meeting me halfway.

03:15Does she have anybody on her side this season?

03:18It's just interesting.

03:19There's a lot of ebbing and flowing in our group.

03:21Yeah.

03:21Dynamic shifted quite a bit, mainly because of incidents that happened or things in our own personal lives.

03:27We were all going through quite a bit this season.

03:29Sure, yeah.

03:30So it just affected how we all interacted with each other.

03:33Yeah.

03:33Who did you kind of ebb and flow with the most, would you say?

03:36Um, I ebbed and flowed, well, obviously with Stacey.

03:41Sure.

03:42Yeah, it's just quite a rollercoaster ride with her.

03:45Wendy and I, we just, we've always had like a love-dislike, not date, a love-dislike relationship.

03:52So that rears its head a little bit.

03:54I think we cleared the air with quite a few things.

03:56Yeah.

03:57And then maybe some of the new girls.

03:59What context can you give me about Stacey and Chris?

04:03That I'm not lying.

04:04Okay, not lying.

04:06And I have proof.

04:07You have proof.

04:08Okay.

04:08All right.

04:09Was this while the whole TJ thing was going on or is this post?

04:13Allegedly this happened, well, I know this happened around the holiday time.

04:20Okay.

04:21Last year.

04:21I see.

04:22It seems like she does maybe admit to lying in New York based on like the trailer and things like that.

04:27And I know that, you know, editing magic.

04:30But is that true?

04:31Does she admit to some sort of lies?

04:33She does.

04:34Okay.

04:34Yeah.

04:34She admits to something.

04:35Something.

04:36Whatever that is.

04:38She can't lie and hide from everything.

04:40At least something catches up to her.

04:42Yeah.

04:42Something catches up.

04:43That she takes ownership of.

04:44Yeah.

04:45Yeah.

04:46Yeah.

04:47Yeah.

04:48Yeah.

04:49Yeah.

04:50Yeah.

04:51Yeah.

04:52Yeah.

04:53Yeah.

04:54Yeah.

04:55Yeah.

04:56Yeah.

04:57Yeah.

04:58Yeah.

04:59Yeah.
