“It was just not really my story to tell,” she said. “And I’m going to support my friend.”
She also alleges she didn’t remember by the time filming began. “I forgot about it, to be quite honest,” Bryant claimed. “I think people think we film 24-7, 365 days a year. We don’t! And that situation was like, months and months prior to us filming.”

Ashley Darby says she doesn’t believe Juan Dixon’s version of events in his scandal

In an interview with Morally Corrupt, Darby says Juan’s story doesn’t make sense.
“I’d be lying if I said the story wasn’t fishy,” she expressed. “As they say, ‘the math isn’t mathing’ for a lot of it. “Why did the woman come down? Why did she and Juan ever connect? Why did he feel the need to help her? All of those things just start sounding really murky, and some part of me thinks that Robyn just really wants to believe that.”
Darby further explains that she believes Robyn simply wanted to give Juan a chance. “Part of me thinks that Robyn is not lying, and she just really believes this cause she wants to give Juan the benefit of the doubt,” she added.
