Rozlyn Papa has come forward to address the rumors about the scandal surrounding her dismissal from ABC's The Bachelor and she denied the widespread reports that she had an inappropriate relationship with a crew member.
"No, I did not have a sexual relationship with a producer on the show," Rozlyn said in an exclusive interview with RadarOnline.com.

Papa, a strikingly beautiful 28-year-old model, was a contestant on The Bachelor who will be fired on the second episode of the show, which will air Monday, January 11. The show said she was terminated for an "inappropriate relationship" with a producer.
"What they mean by inappropriate relationship is not what inappropriate relationship means in the real world," she told RadarOnline.com as she defended her reputation.

She clarified her status with the producer. "I had a relationship with someone on the show that didn't benefit them," Rozlyn said, referring to the network and the show's senior producers. "We remained really close but we are not dating now," Rozyln said of the since-fired producer.
"This is a TV show and it's made for entertainment, but it is a far cry from reality," Rozlyn revealed. "I know that things on television weren't always as they seemed, but I had no idea the extent of the show manipulation."
EXCLUSIVE VIDEO INTERVIEW: Bachelor Host Says Scandal Bombshell Will Be Revealed
Only days ago, ABC dropped the bombshell that an unnamed female contestant had an "inappropriate relationship" with one of the show's producers. Show host Chris Harrison told RadarOnline.com "It was an incident that we've never had to deal with before. It was tough for everyone, the crew, the women and Jake. Hopefully we can quickly move past this and it won't dominate the season. But definitely everyone will see what happens."
Harrison would not reveal Rozlyn's name but said "An unfortunate decision was made by one of the girls and one of the crew members and the rest you'll have to watch and see."
Rozyln denies that she made an unfortunate decision and told RadarOnline.com "I am going to hold my head high, I do not regret anything that happened."
Despite the scandal and being fired from the show, Rozlyn had nice things to say about the Bachelor, hunky pilot Jake Pavelka. "He is SO cute!"

Why do they even call it Reality TV? None of it is ever REALLY REALITY TV. Always have to have the scripted shock and awe factor. More drama, the more viewers. I am sucker enough to tune in too! I like train-wrecks and human behavior.

ABC and Fleiss are manipulating the situation and destroying this girl's reputation for the benefit of ratings!! They should just admit it is scripted. They will still have viewers and probably more marriages!

She resembles me! Both of them are single why all the uproar? As long they were discreet I don't see a problem with them dating. Until she gets a ring on it leave them alone...

Definitely the most beautiful woman ever on this show. Much prettier than Scarlett Johannson and with a better body. And seems really nice and funny too. Rozlyn, stay far away from Tiger Woods! He'll pounce in a second.

I went to reply to Doug's message below on my post. True to your "How Reality TV of them", I like Survivor and Biggest Loser, the dating reality shows are all the same drama, with some psycho chick stalker type that goes nuts.

Sorry! Was testing comments. I should stick to older posts. But I still think the shows are breaking the fourth wall and creating drama outside the show to increase viewership.

No problem! Agreed.
