Lexi Thexton Defends DeMario Jackson, Doesn’t Think Ex Will Take Advantage Of A Drunk Woman

DeMario Jackson’s ex-girlfriend expressed her support to the reality star over his sex footage with Corrine Olympios.

Alexis "Lexi" Thexton shared her thoughts about the “Bachelor in Paradise” scandal saying she didn’t believe in Corrine’s claims that her ex took advantage of her drunkenness. For Lexi, DeMario is a “30-year-old-man child” who parties too much, but there is no way that he would take advantage of a drunk woman, TMZ reported.

DeMario’s ex even offered a theory about the controversial scandal that halted the production of “Bachelor in Paradise.” For Lexi the case was about two people getting too drunk.

Lexi’s take on the “Bachelor in Paradise” scandal involving DeMario and Corrine could be a point for her ex. Lexi and DeMario’s relationship did not end up well because he joined “Bachelorette” and wooed Rachel Lindsay while they were still together. Lexi showed up on the set and confronted Rachel, the incident triggered the latter to eliminate DeMario because she felt that she was being “played,” Heavy reported.

On Wednesday, Corrine released a statement about the incident insinuating that she was the victim. She admitted that the scandal affected her physically and emotionally.

“I am a victim and have spent the last week trying to make sense of what happened on June 4,” Corrine said in a statement released to TMZ. “Although I have little memory of that night, something bad obviously took place, which I understand is why production on the show has now been suspended and a producer on the show has filed a complaint against the production.”

Corrine added that the incident was her worst nightmare and now she is working with a group of professionals to give her light about the controversial scandal. She also hired an attorney to obtain justice and sought therapy for the physical and emotional trauma that she is experiencing due to that event.

On the other hand, DeMario gave his piece about the matter. “It’s unfortunate that my character and family name has been assassinated this past week with false claims and malicious allegations,” DeMario said in a statement released to E! News. “I will be taking swift and appropriate legal action until my name is cleared and, per the advice of legal counsel, will be seeking all available remedies entitled to me under the laws.”
