Emily Maynard And Jef Holm Cheating: 'The Bachelorette' Star With Football Hunk Matt Leinhart?
"The Bachelorette" might be over, but the drama sure isn't!
Emily Maynard and Jef Holm previously fought against cheating accussations that Maynard was caught sexting another man.
Who is the "other man"? Holm's ex-girlfriend Kaylee Shepherd now claims it was Oakland Raiders quarterback Matt Leinhart, 29.
During a family vacation in Myrtle Beach, S.C. Holm suppossedly discovered texts and pictures saying, " 'Let's do this and that to each other,' " a source told Us Weekly. "Jef and Emily went into a bedroom and were yelling. He said 'you've been f*cking cheating on me for months!' "
Maynard did not want to lose Holm and pleaded with him, the source said, but he told her to "pack her sh*t and get the f*ck out." The tabloid claimed Maynard and her 7-year-old daughter, Ricki, left the family compound at 1 a.m.
The couple completely denied these allegations.
Shepherd told Us Weekly magazine that during a heart-to-heart conversation, "[Jeff] said the story was 100 percent accurate."
"When she put her phone down, [Jef] picked it up and read through everything. . . Jef said, 'It was that pro football guy . . . She strung me along and was talking to another guy the whole time!' " Shepherd said.
According to Hollywood Life, Shepherd also said that Holm came up with a master plan: to promise to keep his mouth shut if Maynard gave him half the earning she made from the reality show.
"Emily told him 'I'm so sorry' and he said, 'Well, we have two options: The first is I can go to the media and tell them the truth and let everyone know what you're really like. Or two, I will deny the whole thing and you give me half the money you made from 'The Bachelorette,'' " Shepherd said.
Maynard decided to part from the cash because "she doesn't want to be the girl who has been engaged three times, but it hasn't worked out," an anonymous source told the magazine.
