Getting blackmailed, filing a restraining order & losing $1.3M w/ Clayton from The Bachelor | Ep. 53

Matt is hosting solo in this episode due to Abby’s grandpa passing. Thank you all for your condolences. ❤️

Matt’s feet dangling off the edge of the couch but Clayton’s feet hitting the floor is sending me for some reason 😂😂

The fact she made false reports to the court feels like it should be grounds for prosecution.

Wow. This man is the definition of masculinity in my eyes. He is in touch with his emotions, his self awareness is incredible, and he genuinely cares about the wellbeing of others. Even after being put through this nightmare, he isn't out there trashing this woman or women as a whole. He is sharing his story in a very respectful way even though it has caused him so much pain. What a beautiful human!

I lost my baby at 21 weeks and I have a birth and death certificate, a whole hospital stay and an urn with his ashes.....the baby definitely doesn't just disappear. It's also sickening to hear someone fake a loss like that when it is absolutely traumatizing to go through.

I really love that we’re talking more about male mental health

Very interesting video but one of the things I would like to highlight is how well Matt handled the the high emotions and the space needed to "take a breath". The silence while Clayton took a moment to regulate his emotions spoke volumes to Matt's ability as an interviewer. You also stayed really impartial to the topic which I think is great journalism and interviewing. Thanks to both Matt for the space to share this and to Clayton for telling his difficult story!

Clayton's level of self-awareness and personal accountability is pretty incredible

It infuriates me that Clayton, who is a victim of this woman, may not be able to get the courts to go after her as to not make other women fearful of coming forward. That’s backwards. All victims should have their day in court.

I am not even 20 minutes into this episode, and every single time he makes a statement of self awareness punches me in the gut. The self accountability… Is so inspiring and crushes my soul in such a good way.

So glad Clayton is getting his story out there. This woman needs to be stopped!

I work at a hospital in Columbia, MO that Clayton used to work at and his co workers all have nothing but great things to say about him! Loved this episode! So glad he is able to get his story out there!

As soon as you said Abby had a family emergency, i knew it was her grandpa. I'm so sorry for your loss. Clayton, what happened to you is unforgivable. This is why some men are terrified of women. Its disgusting and i hope she is held accountable. There is no excuse for intentionally trying to ruin someone because you didnt get what you want. Im very sorry you have had to deal with this. It takes its toll in so many ways. Best of luck!

Good for Clayton continuing to get his story out there. The criminal who made him her 5th victim must be stopped and he’s going to be the one to hold her out in the light and show the world how diabolical she is

DAVE NEAL is the Podcaster that initially picked this story up in September 2023, and the Podcaster that called Clayton after that televised Court hearing to give Clayton support. Dave Neal has extensive and incredible moment to moment development on his channel regarding this case, which goes into much more detail than was able to be covered here. Clayton, you’ve been understandably laying low, so it’s wonderful to see you not backing down on this. Your effort can help those who had this happen to them before you, as well as set a precedent for it to not continue in the future. All Courts should require proof of pregnancy before allowing a woman to file a paternity case against a man. Matt, I’m so sorry for your family losing your wife’s grandpa, and I hope you all find comfort in each other coming together now.

It is so great that more podcasts are picking up Clayton’s story because it needs to be heard. Someone please make a movie

I have such a deep appreciation for men who are in touch with their own emotions and feelings. That wisdom is a very beautiful quality.

Welcome to the party! We just found audio of Jane Doe’s mom being in on the calls to Scottsdale police. If there was any doubt that the mom was involved, now we know. Have that on today’s Bachelor Rush Hour podcast. Amazing production quality you guys!

Dave Neal is giving daily updates on this case and other victims of hers on his Bachelor Rush Hour Podcast. He has been reporting on it since the beginning 👏

When Clayton had to stop and breathe, that really hit me deeply. You can tell that he’s really going through it & really trying to be as positive as much as possible. But you can only do so much as one individual can😩🫶🏻
