Sydney Hightower DESTROYS Claim that She Lied About Racial Bullying

Even if you don’t follow The Bachelor Spoilers, you know that things got absolutely bonkers this week.

After Sydney confessed to Peter that she was bullied by racists all through school, a former classmate popped up to accuse her of being a fraud.

Syndey Hightower confessed to Peter Weber that she was bullied mercilessly in high school for being interracial.

After this segment aired, a former high school classmate openly mocked Sydney on Twitter.

The Twitter user shared photos from their high school yearbook, including where she was honored for “upperclassmen top beauty.”

Aside from the horror of high school yearbooks rewarding people for their looks, this looked like major clapback.

The Twitter user even offered to sell old yearbooks, offering $200 each to anyone interested.

Sydney of course saw the buzz going arund the Bachelor Nation and decided to speak up for herself.

“Feels ridiculous I even have to address this,” Sydney wrote on social media on Monday, February 3.

“But correct,” she acknowledged, “I did win a beauty pageant my senior year of high school.”

“That was voted for by 5 judges,” Sydney explained. “Not by my peers.”

More importantly, she added: “Winning a pageant based off of outer beauty does not take away the racial bullying,and isolation I’ve been through.”

“I was also on the cheer team in middle school and in many clubs in high school,” Sydney noted. 

When you are marginalized, she noted, “You’ll do anything you can to fit in, and I tried.”

“I won pageants because of my ‘looks’ and I was in clubs because I wanted a scholarship to get into college,” Sydney detailed.

She explained that these activities were “Not because I was accepted by my peers.”

“Any one from my high school want to pull out the videos of girls stuffing my locker with Oreo cookies?” Sydney asked.

She continued: “vandalizing my home, shoving me in the hall ways?”

It wasn’t just students, she revealed: “Teachers literally referring to me as a halfbreed?”

“Calling my mother the worst names I’ve ever heard in my life?” Sydney asked. “I doubt that.”

“Shame on you,” she admonished. “Shame on you for spreading hate and trying to construe something on the internet to hurt another human being.”

“I don’t know you, but I do remember you from high school and your social group did not care for me,” Sydney wrote. “And that’s OK.”

Sydney continued, writing to this woman that it’s okay “because I would never want the approval of hateful, racist human beings.”

She went on do describe being called an N-word lover, a “half breed,” and “monkey nose” by hateful racists.

“But you will never know these struggles, and that’s a blessing,” Sydney told her former classmate. 

“I feel sad for you,” she expressed, “and I’m sorry that you have not grown as a human being since high school.”

“I hope you know that I will be praying for you and I hope you know this will not affect me,” Sydney expressed.

She added: “But it did hurt me that you would try to diminish my pain, and my struggles, because of beauty pageants and clubs I entered into.”

Sydney reminded that she had gone overboard in an effort “to just try and be accepted.”

After Sydney’s DM to her former classmate was made public (with permission), only a brief, weak clapback was offered up.

“She did experience bullying and racial issues,” the wannabe yearbook salesperson acknowledged.

“But the whole point was she got on TV and said her entire senior year, which isn’t true,” she protested.

She concluded: “But she also took part in being a mean girl.”

Even if that’s true, we all know that being mean when you’re sixteen or whatever is not comparable to targeted racism by your peers and teachers.

The Bachelor Week 5 Preview: She’s a Dramatic B-tch!

The claws are about to come out on The Bachelor.

And so are the insults.

ABC has released a new trailer for week five of Peter Weber’s intense season, and it focuses on tension that is running at an all-time high between various suitors.

We got a dose of this on Monday’s The Bachelor episode, of course, as Alayah made a stunning return — and then wasted no time at all in getting into it with Victoria P.

The latter was sent home by Weber, meaning we won’t see a continuation of this feud next week.

But that doesn’t mean all will be calm in and around the manion, or on the trip the ladies appear to take with their aspiring husband.

Far from it, in fact.

This official preview opens with one  woman crying into another’s arms and someone else saying, in suspenseful fashion, “There is drama.”

We then see Peter kissing one suitor… and then another… and then another after that.

“These girls are, like, continuing to stir the pot,” we hear next, which may be a reference to contestants beyond just Victoria Fuller.

We’re not certain what is referred to next, but yet another suitor complains about something being “ridiculous” and “not fair,” while another cries so hard that we can’t even comprehend what she’s saying.

Elsewhere, someone is “a dramatic bitch” and someone else is deemed “emotionally unstable.”

There’s also a memorable rant about how “there’s someone here who wasn’t here for the right reasons,” which must have been a line written Chris Harrison or another producer.

It’s just too perfect, you know?

Oh, and did we mention that Peter Weber makes out a lot?

Finally, the women stop fighting and name-calling for a few moments when one of them appears to be taken away in an ambulance.

This is followed by another tearful confession by someone who is “so tired [and] so exhausted.”

We’ve combed through all The Bachelor spoilers we can track down and have not yet found information on why a suitor ends up in the hospital.

Check out the trailer here to see what happens, though.

The Bachelor Spoilers: Peter Weber’s Fiancee FINALLY Revealed?! [UPDATED]

Well, folks, another season of The Bachelor is in the can.

After a lot of heartbreak, one freak accident, and some major shadiness involving a contestant who can only be described as the female equivalent of Luke P., Peter Weber has made his final selection and wrapped filming.

So is the beloved pilot/windmill sex enthusiast a newly-engaged man?

Sadly — we don’t know yet.

It seems producers are doing a better job than usual keeping the events of this seaon’s finale under wraps.

But thanks to the spoiler master himself, Reality Steve, we do know the identities of Peter’s final two selections, as well as the fate of the villainous Victoria Fuller.

Take a look:

[We’ve updated this post with Reality Steve’s latest spoilers, and folks — it sounds like we’re in for one hell of a season.]

Peter Weber Sleeps Around in Racy New Bachelor Promo

Consider this your obligatory The Bachelor Spoilers Warning, but…

… Peter Weber is about to have a lot of sex on future episodes of this ABC franchise.

As long-time viewers of this show know (all too well!) at this point, Weber loves a quality roll in the sack.

He and Hannah Brown infamously got it on four times in one night while staying inside a windmill several months ago.

In the new trailer for Week 3 (and beyond) of The Bachelor, we see Peter kissing a great number of suitors.

We also see him running his hands all over many of them, while opening talking about sleeping with many of them and wanting to sleep with others.

“What do I need to do to get you alone in a backseat of a car?” one contestant openly asks the pilot in one scene featured here, while Peter later responds to some critics by stating very simply:

“Sex is very important for a relationship. I don’t know why there’s a taboo because it’s part of the relationship.”

That is a fact, is it not?

But with sexual intercourse comes drama. A lot of drama, if the preview here is any indication.

“Today I realized I was in love with Peter, but if he sleeps with anybody else, it’s going to be hard for me to continue to move forward,” says one woman.

This stance doesn’t make a lot of sense to Weber.

“How do you just walk away and give up? I still feel it and I want to fight, but there is so much right now that is just destroying my heart,” he says.

Elsewhere in this intriguing video, there’s a scene with Peter’s mom crying (more like bawling) and telling her son to get a girl back and bring her home. Could she be referring to Hannah?!?

“My heart is, like, broken right now. I’m crazy in love with her and it’s not over. She means way too much to me to be able to let her go,” Peter cries himself in another scene.

As for what else we learn in this promo?

– The women will head to Chile and Costa Rica.

– One aspiring wife will say of another: “She’s manipulating Peter. She’ll get a rude awakening.’

– Peter tells another: “Every single time I’m with you, it gets better and better.”

– There’s a vicious pillow fight.

Ready to a lenghty look at what’s to come?

Which includes Chris Harrison dropping some sort of bombshell on Peter right before he proposes?

Chris Harrison: The End of Peter’s Season Will Crush Your Heart

We saw some feuding explode on this week’s episode, and if you follow The Bachelor spoilers, you know that’s not the end of it.

Now, Chris Harrison is teasing that Peter Weber’s season of The Bachelor ends in an unprecedented and “gut-wrenching” way.

Just days ago, Harrison told celebrity gossip site Us Weekly what viewers can expect in Peter’s doozy of a season.

“It’s a very dramatic start, as they say, but it always is!” he acknowledged of Season 24 (and literally every season).

“You look at Colton Underwood‘s season and that was crazy for how it went down,” Chris pointed out.

He added: “Hannah Brown‘s season was crazy, in a totally different way.”

“Now Peter Weber‘s season is unpredictable and riveting in another way,” Chris teased. “And we don’t see it coming.”

“It’s something that the producers didn’t know about,” Chris admitted, referring to this season’s big, unknown twist.

“It’s something Peter and I didn’t know about.”

“Inevitably, something happens we’ve never dealt with before,” Chris shared about late in Peter’s season.

He shared how painful and emotionally jarring the twist will be, describing it: “It’s gut-wrenching.”

Some fans have guessed that it has to do with what we know about Victoria Fuller and her controversial past.

However, what we’ve seen on the big teaser for this season suggests that it may be something very different.

In more visual teasers, we’ve seen Chris approach Peter just as he is about, it seems, to hand out his final rose.

It looks like he’s about to propose, but …

“There’s something I just found out,” Chris is seen telling him, though we of course do not hear his next words.

Whatever those words might reveal, we then see the handsome pilot laying down while surrounded by the crew.

We know the producers can edit a promo like it’s their jobs. But man, that just looks dramatic and excruciating.

“It’s just like the last thing I needed to hear,” Peter confesses in the teaser, and then it gets even more painful.

In the meantime, we also see Weber’s mom crying.

She begs, “Don’t let her go. Bring her home to us.”

We don’t know which woman she’s referring to here, but it’s clear that she has strong feelings on the subject.

One of the things that makes Season 24 so distinct from other recent seasons is that not even Reality Steve, Bachelor spoiler god that he is, knows the whole of how it ends. At least not yet.

Oh, there have been “false positives” before, quickly corrected.

Many suspect that ABC has arranged for misinformation to be “leaked” to discredit leakers. Diabolical.

But in this case, despite all that we know (or think we know) about the end, we don’t know the answer to the ultimate question:

Is Peter engaged right now?

But even Harrison himself acknowledges that the truth could leak sooner or later.

“I don’t know if anybody can say that [it won’t be spoiled],” he admitted. “I don’t know how you say that.”

“In this day and age, stuff gets out,” he noted.

“Who knows what will happen.”

The one thing that we can say with a reasonable degree of certainty is that Peter and Hannah Brown do not appear to be endgame.

Hannah is getting an extraordinary amount of hate, mostly from people who dislike her because she (gasp) had sex with her boyfriend.

We know, right? So crazy.

Of course, the real reason that she’s back is because ABC and producers wanted her back. She makes good TV. Hands down.

She and Peter have to put themselves through some very uncomfortable emotions on screen, because it’s good TV. The end.

Who do you think is endgame? Check out the full roster of available, aspiring Mrs. Webers below and make your selection.
