Blake Horstmann Addresses Rumors He Cheated On Pregnant Girlfriend

The adorable video came amid a flurry of Instagram Stories that Horstmann posted. One story directly addressed the rumor making the rounds on the internet that he cheated on his pregnant girlfriend.

According to the rumor, Horstmann was recently trolling the celebrity dating app Raya despite being in a relationship with Giannina Gibelli. The rumor came from a former producer from the Bachelor franchise.

Horstmann took direct aim at the producer, calling her “crazy” and seeking clout of her “gossip podcast.”

In a slide shared to his Instagram Story, Blake Horstmann admitted to being on Raya but claims he ‘froze’ the app when he left to film All Star Shore.

He went on to explain that when he upgraded his phone recently, the Raya app unfroze, making it appear that he was on the app again.

He assured his followers that his pregnant girlfriend knew all about the situation, and he said she got “30 DMs within an [hour]” of his Raya profile being active.

Horstmann also shared that Gibelli was with him when the situation happened and helped him delete his profile, which he claims is a difficult task.

Blake Horstmann then called out those spreading the rumors, writing, “So sorry to disappoint. You Reddit crazies can put away your pitch forks.”
