Chris Harrison Releases Statement Regarding 'Bachelor In Paradise' Suspension

We've all heard about how this season of Bachelor In Paradise has been suspended due to allegations of 'misconduct' - while we don't know a lot of specifics around the situation, though, we do know that the incident involves Corinne from Nick Viall's season and DeMario from Rachel's season.

And now, host Chris Harrison is speaking out about the situation.

Chris' statement reads:

"By now, no doubt, you have heard that we have suspended production on this season’s Bachelor in Paradise.  I can confirm to you that this is sadly the case. Out of respect to all  involved, there’s only so much I can and will say at this time.  Normally with a situation like this I would not say anything until the  incident is fully resolved, but with all the rumors and misinformation  being put out there, I don’t find that to be possible anymore. 

Let me start by saying the safety and care of the cast and crew of our  show is of the utmost importance to us. It is with this thought in mind  that we made the decision to suspend filming. An investigation into the  situation was started immediately,” the statement continues. “Warner  Bros. is handling the details of that investigation. They’re moving  quickly to gather all the facts, and once that’s done, a clear, concise  decision can be made about where we go from here.

There are a lot of competing details in the various press accounts of  the incident. And there’s a lot of misinformation out there too. We  urge everyone to be patient until the investigation is complete,” his  statement reads.

I know in this day and age we want — and  even expect — immediate answers, but in this case, it’s just not  possible. So again, I urge you to please be patient and respect the  privacy of the parties involved. I will keep you as informed and up to  date as I possibly can. We’re sorry for any inconvenience and  disappointment this may have caused the cast, the crew and our loyal  fans. It is my sincere hope that we can come to a quick resolution on  this and get back to work very soon."

While he doesn't give us exact details or answers, it's nice to know someone is giving us as much information as they can!

But he is right, we can't expect immediate answers and resolution right now, so let's just hope that everyone involved is okay and that the situation gets resolved.
