Despite their attempt to stay out of the public eye and work on their relationship, newly engaged Bachelor couple Brad Womack and Emily Maynard continue to be on the receiving end of some not so positive press.
First, Brad’s ex Laurel Kagay is once again speaking out against him. In a new interview with Life & Style magazine, Laurel, who dated Brad on and off from March 2002 to October 2010, tells the mag there were times during their relationship when Brad’s temper would get so out of control, “it was scary,” she says.
“He would sometimes yell, really loud, to the point that he would almost start throwing things,” she adds. And after the blowouts, Laurel states Brad would be apologetic, and send her $1,000 bouquets of flowers or expensive purses, and she would always end up taking him back due to his charm.
Laurel goes on to warn Emily, stating Brad has more than likely already started the same cycle with her. “I just want Emily to realize that he needs some sort of help [for his anger issues]. He can’t do it on his own,” she adds.
Meanwhile a source close to Brad tells the mag that the clock is ticking on Brad and Emily’s relationship. “Brad knows it’s over,” reveals the friend. “They’re together at the moment, but Brad has the feeling he’s about to get dumped.”
In fact, the latest issue of OK! magazine echoes the same sentiment as it features Brad and Emily on the cover proclaiming “It’s Over!” between the two.
According to OK!, the two are simply pretending to be together for the sake of The Bachelor brand. “There have been so many breakups and make ups — mostly over the phone or Skype,” a source close to Brad reveals. “Finally, Emily told him she can’t do this anymore and ended it.”
Brad, who just joined twitter this week, is however denying the OK! break up story. “Btw Em and I are better than ever. In fact maybe we should take editor of OK mag out for a drink. I’m buying.
,” tweeted Brad on Wednesday, the same day he joined twitter.
And finally, Popeater is reporting that just in case things with Emily do not work out, or you know, in case they have broken up already, there is a slight possibility Brad could end up as the Bachelor for the third time! Yikes.
According to the site, ABC insiders have already had internal discussions wondering if asking Brad to come back for a third run as ‘The Bachelor’ would result in ratings gold.
“If Brad hadn’t found love the second time there is no way he would ever be invited back on the show,” a show insider reveals. “But after America saw him try so hard to make his relationship work with Emily, they like him again. Everyone thinks Emily tricked him — they feel sorry for him.”
Here’s to hoping Brad and Emily make it work for the sake of all Bachelor fans around the world. Brad also took to his twitter to deny any possibility of returning to the show. “Strange rumor about me being bach for 3rd time…absolutely NO chance. ZERO. so happy w the one I love. have a great day guys!!,” he wrote.
For the time being, Brad is currently in North Carolina visiting Emily for the weekend. In fact, he just tweeted the photo below of Emily minutes ago.
TELL US – THOUGHTS ON THE LATEST? DO BRAD & EMILY STAND A CHANCE? WOULD YOU WATCH BRAD AS THE BACHELOR AGAIN?








I cannot stand this disgusting oaf of a vile man. Can’t someone do something to insure we never have to see his ugly, lying mug on TV again? Gross, gross, gross. I can’t believe any woman would fall for his lame act.
Even his access is fake. His TWIN brother has zero accent. It’s all fake just like GWB’s Texas accent was.
That’s not always true. My sisters boyfriend has an accent and his family doesn’t. We don’t know how he picked it up, but it’s kind of hard to fake 24/7.
I think this ex is just looking to be in the spotlight. Why is she publicly concerned about Emily and not contacting her privately? I mean I doubt she knows her home number, but she can send her an email through plenty of social networking sites. This girl is out of her mind. “He would sometimes yell, really loud, to the point that he would almost start throwing things” Really? So pissed off that you DON’T throw things? That doesn’t sound very pissed off to me. I am not justifying his anger, and neither is he. But I know when I get pissed off, I throw! Hard AND far! I think it’s time to leave these two alone and let them focus on their relationship. It seems the only ones left alone are the ones that work out. Anyone bother Trista? No not really. Anyone bothering Ali? No not really again. And she isn’t even married to Roberto yet! Why isn’t anyone bugging HER about getting married?? jesus christ, these people have only been together a few months television in tow or not!
I just find it a little coincidental that this Laurel woman keeps coming out of the woodwork- first with Wes and now Brad. We’re supposed to believe she cares about Emily’s well being? I don’t think so. I think she wants her fifteen minutes of fame. Loser…
Wow, I didn’t realize Laurel had dated Brad and Wes. I would totally date Wes over Brad.
Agree with #1 Anita. He is disgusting. He thinks a scheming, conniving 24 year old is gonna stay with him. He picked the wrong girl and he knows it. He only wanted the size 2 hot blonde like his brother has. She was always cool to the relationship the whole time. I’m tired of this out-of-breath idiot who probably is only wealthy due to his brothers dragging his sorry ass along in their bar business. Can you imagine what this guy did night after night in those bars. Oogling and leering at girl after girl. Gross. I’m sick of this idiot. Just like Jake. Both were detestable and it looks like Jake it finally out of his 15 minutes and hopefully Brad is too.
Ok ya’ll her little girl is Rick Hendrick’s grandaughter. He is the owner of Hendrick Motorsports which right now is the HOTTEST property in NASCAR !! His driver Jimmie Johnson just won his 5th championship in a row (which now days is VERY HARD TO DO) and Hendrick Motorsports is MAKING MONEY HAND OVER FIST !! Here is the CATCH !!! They are in Charlotte NORTH CAROLINA !!! Brad OWNS either two or three bars in AUSTIN TEXAS !!! Neither one of them are gonna leave and I KNOW FOR A FACT THAT Emily is NOT GONNA LEAVE THAT Hendrick MONEY for that POS Brad that she can’t even get along with to move to Texas where only a scant full of us are racing fans !!! Again I have said it on everyone of these threads ya’ll ain’s GONNA MAKE IT so BREAK UP NOW and get it OVER WITH !!! Emily go back to Charlotte and try to find someone who will love you for who you really are .. And Brad you go to Austin and go to therapy and then find someone to treat you the same way !! PLEASE for all of America’s sake DO NOT go on the Batchelor AGAIN !! ABC take NOTE if you do ya’ll are down right STUPID !!! it will be the ratings mistake of the decade !!! End of story !!!
Wow Laural keeps making her way into the reality headlines.
I agree with Just J if they bring him back on again I will not watch that episode they do need to start trying to match the contestants better why bring someone on the show that has that kind of lifestyle us women can find that kind of guy on the streets, we dont want that kind of guy we want someone real, loving and a true man, not some drunk insecure A Hole that is onl,y in it for himself. Please ABC do not bring him back let him find his own love if possible on his own dont let him waste your money and our time.
Just finished reading I Hate His Ex by Alex Cooper. Brilliant read for anyone having relationship troubles to do with past relationships
