Gabby Windey Slams Clayton Echard Over Paternity Suit
Clayton Echard’s off-screen drama has fans as riveted as his season of The Bachelor. In August, news broke that he was being sued over allegedly fathering twins with a former fling. He denied the allegations and just got the results of the paternity test. So why is his ex, Gabby Windey, slamming him? Keep reading for all the details.
Gabby Windey & Clayton Echard’s Tumultuous Breakup
Gabby Windey was a contestant on Season 26. She made it all the way to the final three alongside Rachel Recchia and Susie Evans. Even though Clayton Echard had strong feelings for Evans, he still slept with both Windey and Recchia during the Fantasy Suite dates.
That information prompted Susie Evans to leave the show, return, and turn down the Final Rose. However, she reconnected with Echard after filming, and the two dated for six months before calling it quits.
Gabby Windey shocked Bachelor Nation fans earlier this year by coming out as bisexual. Rachel Recchia is about to find herself in yet another love triangle on Season 9 of Bachelor In Paradise.
Clayton Echard Celebrates Paternity Results
When news broke of a lawsuit over the paternity of his hookup’s twins, Clayton Echard strongly denied the claims. The purpose of the lawsuit was to strong-arm him into taking a paternity test, which the anonymous woman alleged Echard refused to do so.
However, after the story went public, the former Bachelor was more than willing to take the test and clear his name. He took to social media last week to share an update with fans. The results were in, and he is not the father!
The anonymous woman told Us Weekly at the time that she was contesting the results, claiming Echard was “lying” about what the tech told him.
At this point, there’s no indication that Clayton Echard plans to file a countersuit against the woman for slander or take other legal action.
Clayton Echard was vindicated, and he’s not the father. So why is Gabby Windey upset?
Gabby Windey Slams Her Ex
Gabby Windey was a guest on Nick Viall’s The Viall Files podcast on Oct. 10. The former Bachelor turned the discussion to Clayton Echard and the paternity results. “It was an interesting creative choice on the part of Clayton but nonetheless I appreciate his enthusiasm,” Viall said of Echard’s celebratory social media video.
Windy chimed in with her own criticism of the way Echard announced the paternity test results, calling it “the wrong tone.” She added, “This isn’t how I would respond. At least match the seriousness of this.”
Us Weekly notes that Viall’s fiance, Natalie Joy, joined the discussion. “Men are just … stupid,” she said about Clayton Echard.
