A Bachelorette Investigation: How many secret girlfriends does Jed have?

By Bruin Belisle

THE BACHELORETTE - "1506" - Emotionally exhausted from last week's drama but resolved to get her journey to find love back on track, Hannah looks forward to taking her nine remaining men to beautiful Riga, Latvia, on the Baltic Sea. One handsome suitor, who has been crushing hard on Hannah, is awarded the first one-on-one date. It turns out to be a heart-stopping but liberating experience as the couple bungee jump wearing little clothing; however, when the man kisses and tells about his lusty date, how will the other men react? On a group date to Riga Central Market, Hannah rewards another bachelor who presents her with flowers and passionate kisses. Two archrivals face off in a spirited wrist wrestling match that definitely grabs the Bachelorette's attention. On the final one-on-one for the week, Hannah and her date learn about a Latvian spa ritual, which mixes sauna and spiritual elements, including massage techniques. The temperature rises both literally and figuratively as the two connect with hot physical intensity, but will they be able to relate on a deeper, emotional level? Another man surprises Hannah with a late-night visit to proclaim his feelings for her. But before the rose ceremony, the Bachelorette is all business and needs to clarify what she expects in a future soul mate on "The Bachelorette," MONDAY, JUNE 24 (8:00-10:01 p.m. EDT), on ABC.

This season of The Bachelorette has been centered around Luke but it looks like targets may be shifting to Jed as the true villain.

Jed sucks. When the story broke that this “singer” had a girlfriend, things seemingly couldn’t get worse for the Nashville music hopeful. Then it did. If you’re in the dark about this like I was until about an hour ago, just Google “Jed Wyatt.” The first 35 articles are going to be about his multiple girlfriends, not his super awesome musical skills.

Speaking of music, let’s go back to the beginning. Early in the season, Jed told Hannah that he came on the show to boost his singing career. He said this during their first date. Personally, I would have sent him home on the spot. It doesn’t matter that he (allegedly) fell for Hannah, he flat-out told her he was there for the “wrong reasons,” which is a huge Bachelor faux-pas.

Jed doubled down on being a skid when news broke that he left his girlfriend at home to get famous on the show. Fellow Nashville up-and-comer Haley Stevens (actually a good singer, unlike someone) told E! News that she and Jed had been seeing each other prior to the show. He told her he was going to go on The Bachelorette to advance his music career — again, the same thing he told Hannah and somehow escaped instant eviction. That’s cool. It aligns with what he told us — he just left out the part about the girl at home.

Record scratch.

*Girls at home. Jed tripled down on being a skid when news broke that he also cheated on Haley with ANOTHER girl, all while going through the process of getting onto The Bachelorette.

Jed is probably a big Lou Bega fan because he’s got girlfriends everywhere. If you didn’t get that extremely obscure reference about “the Mambo No. 5 guy,” it’s because you aren’t as big a fan of Lou Bega’s other work as I am. In his Mambo follow-up, “I Got a Girl,” Bega flaunts having multiple girlfriends.

Bega’s girlfriends are located in Paris, Rome, the Vatican, right here, right there, everywhere, on the moon, on Mars, on the stars, Miami Beach, Beluga Bay, the Milky Way, East L.A., St. Tropez, his home cafe… You get it. He has a lot of girlfriends. Let’s get back on track.

Jed isn’t far off our good friend Lou (aside from the singing, which Bega is actually great at). So far he’s checked off Alabama and Nashville. Granted, those are hard to rhyme in a song, but after a few more women come forward we’ll hit him up for some song writing tips and throw something together.

Jed

is

was on the short list of favorites this season. He’s made his way into Hannah’s heart and it’s evident from the edits that he’s going to make it pretty far. It has to be difficult for Hannah to watch it all back knowing that not only did he go in with bad intentions, but also left a girlfriend at home – something Hannah called that Steve guy out for on night one.

Speaking of, where was Demi on this one? Missed opportunity for our favorite undercover detective. You’re supposed to be all over this type of thing, Demi!

More. Luke sucks, Jed sucks, Pete, you're cool. light

Hopefully Jed isn’t the eventual winner. That would be a disaster of a way to kick off a relationship. If Jed does win, we can hope for some sort of Arie/Becca situation in the live after show.

The Bachelorette airs Mondays at 8:00 p.m. ET on ABC.
