Though his name has been officially cleared, DeMario Jackson isn’t over it.

An internal investigation found that the reality star was not involved in any misconduct on the set of Bachelor In Paradise after a sexual encounter with Corinne Olympios caused a halt in production. In the final installment of E! News’ interview with DeMario, he shares that he feels he was dealt an unfair hand. He said:

“I got played…not by [Corinne] but I got played in general. I am not sure by who, but I got played.”

He added that even though Corinne is still pursuing an independent investigation of the incident, he isn’t “mad” at her, and feels like she is suffering the consequences as well. He said:

“Before either of us commented on it, I was already a ‘rapist’…and she’s a ‘whore’ and she’s a ‘slut.’ They were slut-shaming her because of what she did last season with Nick [Viall]. For me, it goes back to the human race. We failed.”

DeMario also opened up about his fear that the allegations will follow him. He said:

“It’s every man’s biggest fear. No man wants to be attached to that. That ruins you for life. That’s something that sticks with you.”
