The Untold Truth Of The Bachelor's Victoria Fuller

While nearly every season of The Bachelor features at least one polarizing, controversial contestant, the backlash against said contestant usually doesn't happen until the season's underway. However, in the case of The Bachelor's Victoria Fuller, pre-season spoilers and rumors regarding her reputation and previous relationships resulted in the Virginia native feeling the need to make a case for herself via social media. 

On Nov. 22, 2019, Fuller took to Instagram to defend herself against disparaging remarks, posting a photo with her dog, Buxton, and writing, "The RUMORS you are hearing are FALSE." The Bachelor contestant continued, writing, "There will be a time [and] place where I can defend myself, but for now I choose to wait." 

Continuing with her caption, Fuller said the bullying she'd received online was neither "okay" nor "fair," and alleged the people speaking negatively of her reputation were "casting judgement and basing opinions upon pure speculation, assumptions, [and] LIES."
