The Truth Behind Samantha's Exit On The Bachelor
Feb. 6 2012, Published 4:00 a.m. ET
There was more to meets the eye regarding The Bachelor Ben Flajnik sending home Samantha Levey halfway through the show's January 23 broadcast.
“I don’t think I see this going much further ... just based on the track record, we should probably end this,” Ben told the 26-year-old beauty, who said she was “going to miss Ben so much that it breaks my heart.”
Now for the rest of the story: An insider told Star Samantha's devotion was actually directed toward one of the show's producers -- who, inconveniently for her, is married with kids and had no interest in any type of hook-up.
“Whatever reason they show for Samantha leaving … just know it’s because of that,” the insider told Star.
It's not the first time love in the air of the ABC hit has gone astray: former producer Ryan Callahan was canned in 2010, after it was revealed he'd been involved in an inappropriate relationship with gorgeous blonde Rozlyn Papa.
