Blind Item #9

The producers for this Los Angeles based reality show that isn't Housewives but is on the same channel has been trying to recruit a guy for a couple of years now. The reason it fell through previously was because his ex fiancé said no to being on the show for obvious reasons. Since the ratings have been low and he’s single now, they’ve formally recruited him again, but this time this OG cast member started calling and texting him nonstop. He didn’t even like her, but she hounded him, presumably because he tested well in previous interviews with production. So now they have been hooking up, but he doesn’t want to be with her and asked her not to post photos or say they were dating since it’s clearly a set up and he doesn’t have a formal offer to join the show. But I guess he’s thirstier than I thought, because he’s apparently okay with the surprise press release since it means he’s probably getting in the show. Pretty sure his parents are livid though.
