Everything about Peter Weber’s season of The Bachelor has been filled with drama. Even now after the show has been wrapped up for some time there is still drama surrounding the contestants. Madison Prewett is still the focus of a lot of support from fans, but also some criticism. One person who has not held back on criticizing Madi is former Bachelor Nick Viall. He discussed Madison on his podcast, The Viall Files, last month. He even called her out as being a liar. After some backlash from his comments, Nick is further clarifying his feelings about Madi.

Nick answers questions about Madison

On a recent Instagram story, Nick was taking fan questions and providing answers. One question came up regarding his feelings towards Madison. US Weekly shared details about Nick’s response to the fan’s question. Some feel that perhaps Nick was a little harsh in his assessment of Madison and her actions.

Nick’s response was, “I don’t hate Madison. I have disagreed with some of her decisions she made public.” He continued, “I have also agreed with other things she made public. I have a podcast and I give my opinions about the things people make public when using their platforms.” Nick concluded, “I made my opinion public, some people criticized me for it. That’s OK … Conversation and disagreement are healthy.”

Would he ever have her as a guest on The Viall Files?

Nick said he would gladly welcome Madison on his podcast to share her side of what happened. While he welcomes the idea, he doesn’t think she would ever go for it. Nick says he would love to be proved wrong about her appearing on his podcast, but doesn’t think it’s likely.

Madison hasn’t been afraid of sharing her thoughts and beliefs so maybe she will agree to do Nick’s podcast. Time will tell if the Auburn native is up for it.

Nick’s initial comments about Madison

So what got the backlash heading in Nick’s direction? Towards the end of April, he mentioned that Madison was vain and even a little bit of a liar. He even said he had talked with producers who do really like Madison. However, they also admitted they thought she could be a bit of a liar as well.

Nick had said, “People want to forget — I know Madison wants to forget it — but her Instagram. It’s a fact she did that. It is silly and trivial. [But] if you’re going to be righteous and you’re going to be pious and you’re going to, like, talk about your relationship with God and how you want to be example to young men, blah, blah, blah, I hold you to a higher standard, so don’t be a liar. Don’t be vain.”

It will be a very interesting conversation if Madison decides to appear on The Viall Files.  Stay tuned for more updates on Bachelor news as it becomes available.
