Feb. 17 2010, Published 9:16 a.m. ET
The woman behind the biggest scandal in Bachelor history held her head high for her return on the Women Tell All episode taping, but she said the show had a different agenda for her.
“It was very weird, they had me secluded. They’re trying to villainize me, they’re doing their best,” Rozlyn Papa told RadarOnline.com in an exclusive interview.
She described her experience with the episode taping. “They had me in a different part of the building; they had me in a part where I had no access to anyone else. They had the girls out there for several hours before they brought me out.”

Rozlyn was dismissed from The Bachelor for an “inappropriate relationship” with a show producer, but has adamantly denied the accusations. She told RadarOnline.com that she has not had any contact with the other women from the show since leaving.
“I think they want me to be portrayed a certain way and if I had seen the other girls ahead of time we would have talked about it and I could have told them the truth, and they would have heard my side and then no one would have said anything nasty about it. They got to know him. I would have loved to have heard whatever the producers were saying for them to think that I did something wrong.”

Her time on stage was brief, and she did not interact with the other women. Rozlyn told RadarOnline.com that she confronted Chris Harrison when he said the staff was angry at her because the producer that was fired was like a family member to them. She contradicted his claims, and made some of her own that did not sit well.

“I came out by myself and was interviewed by Chris and they had the big producer guy take me off the stage.”
Rozlyn told RadarOnline.com “They had me away from the girls. Because I’m supposed to be the villain I guess, I’m not really sure to be honest. What they say about me and how I really am contradicts each other so much, I can’t even keep up, I don’t know what they’re doing any more.”
The Women Tell All special edition of The Bachelor will air on ABC on Monday, February 22nd, with the Bachelor finale airing Monday, March 1st.
