AceShowbiz - Bekah M., who appeared in current season 22 of "The Bachelor", previously made headlines after her mom reported her missing, telling authorities that she went away to work on a marijuana farm. The 22-year-old now sets the record straight about the bizarre situation, claiming that she didn't lie to her mom.
Bekah, who was sent home by Arie Luyendyk Jr. in the Monday, February 12 episode, appeared on "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" on the same night and cleared up the mystery. She told Jimmy Kimmel that she "decided to go up to the mountains with some friends for a couple of weeks and I was there for six or seven days without phone service, and I thought I was going to have phone service. I told my mother that I would."
Bekah, who works as a nanny in Los Angeles, added, "I just had this weird feeling on the sixth or seventh day that 'I need to go home now.' So I got in my car, drove to where I had service, called my parents. Then I come to find out only 12 hours before, my mother had called the Humboldt Sheriff’s Department saying that I was missing."
When asked if she was in a marijuana farm, Bekah responded, "Is that what it was? Was that a marijuana farm?" Jimmy didn't let her off the hook with that vague answer though, as he kept pressing on her. "It's Humboldt County sooo," Bekah said, implying that Humbolft produces the most marijuana farm in California.
"To set the record straight I'm not a weed farmer," Bekah quickly explained. "I'm still a nanny in L.A. But yes, my friends have a weed farm up in Humboldt."
During her appearance on the midnight talk show, Bekah revealed that she actually hoped for Peter Kraus to be The Bachelor. "Well, I was hoping it would be Peter and it ended it up being Arie," she said, adding that she has been a fan of the show for years.
