Bachelorette John Hersey Says Katie Never Cheated

Former Bachelorette contestant, and lead Katie Thurston’s new boyfriend, John Hersey, recently addressed fans personally to clarify that there was no cheating that led to their new relationship. After Bachelor Nation learned that former Bachelorette Katie rebounded from her breakup with fiancé Blake Moynes with John, there was understandable backlash, but John has gone on the record to clarify the origins of his romantic relationship with Katie.

At the start of Katie’s Bachelorette journey, there wasn’t much in the way of sparks between her and John, and the bartender from San Diego went home week 2. Instead, Katie developed relationships with other men on the show, and after a lot of drama, she got engaged to Blake at the end of the season. But their relationship didn’t last long, and Katie and Blake announced their breakup about a month ago. After their split, Katie embraced her messy side and spent 12 days pairing the men from her season to Taylor Swift songs, and shocked fans when she revealed on the 12th day that she and John are now dating.

On Friday, John took to Reddit to write a personal letter to fans to help them understand the how and why of his relationship with Katie. He informed fans that he and Katie had been developing a deep friendship over the last half of this year and assured readers that “we were ALWAYS platonic…it was never a thought in our minds that we would ever be anything more.” Even when he was on the show, John claimed things never developed with Katie, and more importantly, he assured fans that “Neither Katie nor I would ever cheat, push someone to cheat, or be involved in cheating,” and that “there was no wrongdoing” before Katie formally ended her engagement with Blake.

However, John admitted that the timeline of their relationship is “fast and messy,” and claims he and Katie moved so fast after her breakup because they had such a strong foundation of friendship. “The speed at which I fell for this incredible, nurturing, and genuinely caring human being was honestly terrifying,” he said. Though the new couple announced their relationship not long after Katie’s breakup with Blake, John claims it’s partially a logistical issue, saying there’s no way they could have explored a relationship without endless speculation from fans anyway, so it was easier to go all in than try to “foster some sort of secret and scandalous relationship.”

Though some fans were empathetic towards John and Katie, there were others who felt the letter was somewhat performative and suggested that Blake was the one who deserved an explanation. John made some decent points, but he also might not be giving enough credit to his and Katie’s subconscious desires. The two could have been developing feelings that led to the breakup that Katie and John didn’t even realize. They may not think there was any emotional cheating, but that doesn’t mean there wasn’t any. Even if there was no outright cheating, the entire situation was a grey area, and it’s not hard to see why Blake’s feelings would be hurt.

The love triangle that formed between John, Blake, and the former Bachelorette lead is undoubtedly messy, and John’s message to the fans isn’t going to satisfy all fans. It could be true that he and Katie really don’t think they did anything wrong, but they still clearly hurt Blake in the process of revealing their relationship, and fans are likely going to hold them accountable.
