AceShowbiz - The on-screen drama between "The Bachelor" suitors Carolina Quixano and Dina Lupancu have spilled onto social media. Four weeks into the show, the two prominent contestants on Grant Ellis' season were embroiled in a public spat.
The drama initially surfaced when Dina, 31, accused Carolina, 29, of "playing" her as she shared a sneak peek of the upcoming February 24 episode. Dina took to TikTok to hint at imminent tensions with Carolina after previously defending her when she was accused of being ungrateful for her time with Grant Ellis.
"When you defend the one person nobody else would … just to get played the next week," so Dina wrote. In the clip, she lip-synced to the viral audio, "Because you know in a moment, it could all boom." She also signalled her desire to distance herself from Carolina, "Your Honor I'd like to withdraw as counsel."
Carolina wasn't happy, taking Dina's post as a personal attack. In one post, she sarcastically commented, "Imagine trying to start drama with me when this is the only activity im [sic] interested in participating in," alongside a video of her dancing.
Additionally, Carolina claimed she had "screenshots" as evidence to support her side of the story. She underscored this point with a clip where she lip-synced to the similar audio, saying, "Because you know in a moment, it could all boom."
Dina fired back, pointing out the alleged pattern in Carolina's behavior, "I tease next week's preview and she responds with … a threat? Interesting tactic but on brand I guess." She additionally used Taylor Swift's lyrics from "Exile," "I think I've seen this film before."
Viewers remain on the edge of their seats as they await the next episode. Fans speculate whether the drama will continue to escalate or if the two will find a resolution. One thing is certain: this season of "The Bachelor" is anything but dull.
