"Andi Mack" Star Asher Angel Could Bank Upwards $3 Million For Next Role
Disney star Asher Angel is hoping the new DC Comics flick, “Shazam!,” about Captain Marvel blows up like the ‘Harry Potter’ series because, if it does, he could be looking at more than $ 3 million easy. Asher, who’s only 15, scored the role of young…

Andi Dorfman: Watching Josh Murray Propose to Amanda Stanton Was Strange!
Once upon a time, Andi Dorfman and Josh Murray looked set to become the latest power couple in Bachelor Nation.
Somewhere along the way, their relationship hit a snag, and it allowed Murray to appear on Bachelor in Paradise in 2016, and that’s where he started a relationship with Amanda Stanton.
But, how did Andi feel about her ex-fiance being back on TV and getting up close and proposing to a different woman?
“I don’t think it was hard as much as it was strange,” Dorfman revealed to Us Weekly.
“Something everyone can relate to in the sense of — you may be finished and done with a relationship or have gotten over all of it, but whenever you hear an ex of yours has gotten engaged or dating again, especially on such a public platform, it just feels strange.”
Dorfman makes an excellent point: Who wants to know their ex is involved with someone else?
It must be difficult being in the public eye because there’s, like, no way to really cut an ex out of your life if they are popping up in the headlines every so often.
Dorfman’s new book, Single State of Mind delves further into her feelings about the whole thing. There’s probably a whole lot of Josh Murray bashing included because that’s what she does best.
“I didn’t want to try and brush it all under the rug, but at the same time, I wasn’t distraught over it,” she says in the book.
“It was just a weird feeling.”
If you keep up to speed with what goes on in Bachelor Nation, you will already know that Murray’s relationship with Stanton was yet another relationship that fizzled.
Andi managed to bond with Stanton in the aftermath, and the pair has been out together, so at least we know they are not letting one man come between a potential friendship.
“I’ve actually been out with her a couple times in New York City,” Dorfman explains, but she also says that the pair don’t chat regularly about Murray.
“It’s pretty funny! We don’t actually exchange too many stories, but it’s like how many people in the world have been engaged and then broken off an engagement to the same guy as me? The answer is pretty much only one!”
While Bachelor Nation relationships have a knack for being ill-fated, Dorfman also revealed whether she would dip back into the dating world with former contestants.
“I mean, I’m not against it. I don’t think anyone that comes off the show has a stigma, by any means,” she explains.
“I hope not because then I would have one too! I’m not against it, but I wouldn’t say I’m seeking out a guy from Bachelor Nation by any means [laughs].”
Adds Andi: “Unless it was Chris Harrison!”
Wouldn’t it be fun to see Chris Harrison and Andi become a thing? We can only imagine the headlines that would come from that pairing!
Unfortunately, Andi was joking when she said that last comment.
“We would never date!” she dishes. “We have a little fun with it still.”
Okay, so how do you feel about Andi’s comments?

Chris Soules & Andi Dorfman: Together?!?
Once upon a time, Chris Soules and Andi Dorfman seemed destined to be the next big couple of Bachelor Nation, and fans were rooting for them.
Despite pouring his heart out to Andi to during her season of The Bachelorette, she was not feeling it, and he was eliminated right before the end.
In the live segment of the season finale, she revealed that she was having issues with the idea of living in Iowa and did not want to have to make sacrifices for her.
On top of that, she felt like the relationship lacked a solid foundation, and that’s why Soules eventually came in third place. That was the season Josh Murray won, and we all know how badly things went for the winning couple.
Ever wonder what it would have been like if Chris eked out a victory? Well, we may be about to get an answer to that question since he and Andi have been spotted dining together in New York.
TMZ first shared pictures of the pair indulging in some lunch at The Dubliner, so we do know they have been meeting up with one another, but could a relationship really be on the cards?
A tipster hit up TMZ to reveal that the pair is just friends and that Soules was in town for fellow Bachelor Nation alum Sharleen Joynt’s wedding.
Meanwhile, a report in People claimed the pair have “stayed friendly for years.”
“Andi has always wanted the best for Chris,” the insider says. “She felt terrible for everything he’s been going through.”
In case you’ve been living under a rock, we’ll provide you a little refresher on the matter.
Chris was arrested earlier this year after leaving the scene of a fatal car crash that left Kenneth Mosher dead. The star eventually plead not guilty, and his trial is set for January.
So, there’s every reason to believe that Andi was reaching out to a friend, but could it develop into something more? Probably, but we’ll just have to wait and see.
But wouldn’t their relationship make for a great new entry into the ABC dating series? Could you imagine they actually got together, married and went the full way?
They did have a lot of fans when they were together, but would Andi be willing to relocate this time around? Take note, ABC.
What do you think about all of this?
Would you be glad if they got together?
Sound off below!

Chris Soules and Andi Dorfman Reminisce Like Old Times at Mystery Lunch Date
Chris Soules and Andi Dorfman are partying like it’s 2014 … back to one-on-one dates like it’s ‘Bachelorette’ season 10. Chris and Andi reunited over the weekend by grabbing a bite Sunday at The Dubliner in NYC and looking very much…

Rachel Lindsay Roasted by Bachelor Nation: She"s as Clueless as Andi Dorfman!
You only have to watch one of Rachel Lindsay’s interviews to know that she is charming and beautiful. Everyone who’s watched The Bachelorette is very aware of what a delight she can be.
But some have been questioning her judgment (especially if they’ve been following The Bachelorette Spoilers), and drawing some very unfavorable comparisons to a past Bachelorette.
We don’t just mean fans of the show — we mean the former Bachelor and Bachelorette personalities of the Bachelor Nation. They think that they know which way Lindsay is leaning, and they’re telling the world exactly what they think about it.
Thank goodness for Twitter, where we can see the thoughts of the Bachelor Nation in real time, from the comfort of our couches.
Tanner Tolbert, who was a contestant on a season of The Bachelorette, was making his opinion known on Twitter:
“So the lawyer #bachelorette likes the smooth talking guy from the southeast over the dude from Wisconsin? Feels like I’ve seen this one b4.”
That’s a clear reference to Andi Dorfman’s season of The Bachelorette, as she struggled to choose between Josh Murray of the southeast and Nick Viall of Wisconsin.
Bachelor Nation standbys Carly Waddell and Jared Haibon shared their appreciation in their replies to the tweet.
“Haha,” Carly replied — social media can make it hard to gauge sincerity.
Jared’s enthusiastic “GOT EM!!” is wildly unambiguous.
Nick Viall, who is clearly super relevant to this comparison, quoted the tweet with his own comment:
“Things have a way of working out.”
Andi Dorfman was the lead on the 10th season of The Bachelorette.
That was only a few seasons ago, but we get that they can all blur together.
Andi Dorfman was a Georgia prosecutor (a shockingly beautiful ADA, just like on Law & Order!)
Josh Murray was a smooth-talking, hunky baseball player from the southeast.
(He was actually born in New York, but he grew up in Florida — and went to college in Georgia)
Nick Viall was a charming, earnest man from Wisconsin.
And, not for nothing, but at least on camera, Nick Viall was definitely better looking than Josh Murray.
(You know it; don’t lie)
Andi Dorfman ultimately chose Josh Murray (it didn’t end so well — we’ll get to that in a moment).
Now days, those guys are both familiar fixtures for the entire Bachelor franchise, but Season 10 of The Bachelorette was the first time that they were introduced to the world.
The parallels are obvious:
Rachel Lindsay is also a lawyer from the south — she’s from Dallas, not Atlanta.
Bryan Abasolo is a beefy Florida chiropractor who seems to say whatever Lindsay wants to hear, or thinks that she wants to hear.
Peter Kraus is a charming, handsome man from Wisconsin who comes across as very honest.
Andi chose Josh Murray.
It didn’t work out — in fact, Andi Dorfman alleged that Josh was emotionally abusive during their relationship.
(She wrote a New York Times bestseller that contained the claims, titled: It’s Not Okay)
Lindsay has appeared to be leaning towards Bryan Abasolo, even though he keeps putting up red flags.
Fans in general don’t seem to like Bryan Abasolo at all, and it’s pretty clear that there will be uproar if Rachel chooses him.
(Thanks to Bachelor in Paradise accidentally spoiling a Bachelorette elimination, we were able to rule out a frontrunner pretty early on)
Clearly, the famous members of Bachelor Nation feel the same way.
You don’t compare somebody to Josh Murray as a compliment.
It is kind of unusual for anyone connected to the show to be so openly critical of the reigning Bachelorette.
To be clear, it definitely has happened.
Remember when Leah Block apologized for her racist tweet about Rachel?
But this time, we’re not dealing with racist criticism.
We’re dealing with people noticing some pretty major parallels.
And what really looks like it might be a parallel mistake.
(But it can’t be a mistake bigger than saying goodbye to Dean Unglert, who is too precious for this world, too pure)
Overall, it looks like Rachel Lindsay might be the only person who genuinely likes Bryan Abasolo.

Andi Dorfman Reacts to Chris Soules Arrest: What Did She Say?
Days after Chris Soules was arrested for his role in a fatal car accident, a couple of women who knew the former Bachelor star well have spoken out on the tragedy.
First, Entertainment Tonight talked to Andy Dorfman, the ex-Bachelorette who nearly chose Soules as her fiancee in 2014.
“It’s all very sad,” Dorfman said, clearly still processing the crash that took the life of 68-year old Kenneth Mosher and adding:
“I haven’t talked to Chris yet but, knowing him, I know that he is probably devastated.”
The crash took place around 8:20 p.m. on Sunday, as Soules was driving a pickup truck in Iowa when he rear-ended Mosher in a tractor.
The impact hurled Mosher into a ditch and prompted Soules to call 911. He alerted the authorities to the situation, but proceeded to drve away to his farm, which is located about 15 miles from the accident site.
Soules then refused to let police officers into his home until they obtained a warrant, possibly to give himself time to sober up.
(Authorities confirm the discovery of open beer cans inside Soules’ vehicle, found after they obtained said warrant and took Soules into custody.)
Mosher was taken to a hospital and pronounced dead.
“My thoughts go out to [Mosher] and his family, as well as the Soules family,” Dorfman added to ET.
“You never want to hear that a friend has been involved in a horrific, life-altering tragedy like this. I’m just saddened for everyone involved.”
Soules was arrested just after 1 a.m. on Monday and charged with leaving the scene of a fatal car crash that left one individual dead.
Due to his extensive criminal record, the former reality star could be in major trouble if police determine he had been drinking prior to getting behind the wheel.
According to TMZ, he also could be in major trouble (in the form of a vehicular manslaughter charge) if cell phone records prove Soules was texting or talking to someone at the time of the accident.
Law enforcement officials have seized his phone and will be looking at texts, photos, social media posts, along with his call log.
Britt Nilsson, meanwhile, who grew close to Soules on his season of The Bachelor, spoke to TooFab about the incident and issued the following statement.
With a heavy heart, I pray for both men’s families today. I believe that Chris is an upstanding and honorable man, as is now fully coming to light with the discovery of his 911 call.
I found it hard to believe that he would not report the accident, so this new information, revealing that he did call the police to report it, definitely feels more true to character than the original story of a hit and run.
I deeply grieve for the victim and his entire family today, as the shock waves of pain and loss must be almost unbearable. I pray that people respect them, and give them space and time to heal.
I also pray for Chris, as he must be filled with guilt, regret, and confusion. In all our time together, he was nothing but a gentleman and always cared for those around him.
My heart goes out to everyone surrounding and involved in this horrible accident–I pray for peace, reconciliation, and hope in the midst of such a terrible circumstance.
Then there’s Marcus Grodd, who also appeared on season 10 of The Bachelorette with Soules and Dorfman and who told ET that he was “completely shocked by the news,” expounding:
“[Chris] is just a good guy and unfortunately this incident doesn’t reflect who he is as a person.
“People should know he is a fun and charismatic guy and I have only seen him help people constantly.”
We’re not really sure if “fun and charismatic” are the traits Soules would want emphasized about himself in this situation, but we’re sure Grodd didn’t mean any harm.
Soules posted bond on Tuesday and has only said the following through a spokesman thus far:
“Chris Soules was involved in an accident Monday evening (April 24) in a rural part of Iowa near his home. He was devastated to learn that Kenneth Mosher, the other person in the accident, passed away.
“His thoughts and prayers are with Mr. Mosher’s family.”

Josh Murray: Andi Dorfman and Nick Viall Are PERFECT Together!
Andi Dorfman’s surprise visit to the hotel room of Nick Viall on this season of The Bachelor has fans guessing what her endgame is.
Could there be a surprise reconciliation in the works? (The Bachelor spoilers offer clues as to how the season ends, if you dare to read).
Monday night’s episode gave us just a glimpse of Andi Dorfman’s return to The Bachelor, leaving fans dying to know what comes next.
At least one prominent member of Bachelor Nation is hoping for – or at least envisioning – a rekindling of a romance between the two.
“I think they’re perfect for each other, to be honest,” Dorfman’s former fiancé Josh Murray told Entertainment Tonight in an interview.
Yes, the same Josh Murray who openly loathed Nick and stole his girl on two different shows in The Bachelor franchise since 2014.
“Knowing both of the people and who they are, they should have ended up together,” says Josh, who split with Andi after six months.
Of whether or not he thinks Viall’s relationship with his final pick will last, Murray said he’s “very pessimistic when it comes to [that].”
Josh says he chalks that skepticism up to “what I feel like the intentions are at the end,” adding, “I feel like I know Nick pretty well.”
“I wish the girls luck for sure,” he added.
From everything we’ve heard, there’s little chance Nick dumps his final four and makes Andi Dorfman The Bachelor winner in a shocker.
Still, her mere presence has fans buzzing.
Murray, 32, and Viall, 36, became on-screen rivals when they were the two finalists on Dorfman’s season of The Bachelorette in 2014.
Dorfman, 29, ultimately picked Murray.
Their engagement ended, however, and not necessarily well; Dorfman released a tell-all memoir about her experience with the show.
In it, Andi touched on the reasons behind her split from Murray, calling the former athlete controlling, paranoid and verbally abusive.
Her book became a hot topic during Murray’s (and Viall’s) Bachelor in Paradise stint last summer as he romanced Amanda Stanton.
(Who Nick was also really into at the time.)
Nick, who has said Andi’s memoir didn’t always tell the whole story but said what she described was by and large true, was concerned.
About Andi’s claims regarding Murray.
Josh, who may be back together with Stanton after calling off their post-Paradise engagement, said Andi’s book was “a fictional story.”
Murray told ET of his ex’s memoir:
“That’s [Dorfman’s] way of making money and stuff, and that’s great, and if I’ve got to be the fall guy in whatever her stories are, then whatever.”
Adding that he has “no intentions of ever seeing or talking” to Dorfman again, he says “it’s very tempting to tell the truth,” but he won’t.
He’s been asked to write a book of his own, Josh says, but because he doesn’t want to attack people, he will not be taking such action.
“There could be a book written that would be very, very bad, but that’s not something I want to do,” Murray said, advising future contestants.
“Always be yourself” and true to yourself, “because they’re going to portray you how they want to portray you for the storyline.”
Words to live by.

Andi Dorfman Says She"s Team Nick But She"s Done With "The Bachelor" (VIDEO)
Former ‘Bachelorette’ Andi Dorfman is done with reality TV dating, although she sure seems invested in Nick Viall’s love life. Viall and Andi have history … he was a finalist when she was the ‘Bachelorette.’ Maybe she’s having buyer’s…
Andi Dorfman: Reason For The Bachelor Return Revealed!
Some things, even The Bachelor spoilers can’t tell you.
Sure, we knew ahead of time that Rachel Lindsay would be The Bachelorette, and we’re almost positive we know who wins the final rose.
But who saw final moments of this week coming?
Nick Viall wasn’t the only card carrying member of Bachelor Nation who was surprised to see Andi Dorfman on the show Monday night.
Of course, she showed up for all of five seconds before the credits, and we didn’t even see Nick’s hometown date rose ceremony either.
Yep, it’s a double-cliffhanger tease this week!
This coming Monday, all will be revealed as Andi, the former star of The Bachelorette who turned Nick’s proposal down in 2014, is back.
“Hello, Nick,” Dorfman says at his hotel door.
Awesome as it is to see one of the hottest women in Bachelor history on screen, and making Nick squirm so less, the question is … WHY!?
The video above offers some clues …
“Everyone who’s wanted to see Nick and Andi face to face again will get what they want,” says a source quoted by E! News this week.
(Did people even know that they wanted that?)
“It’s their first time discussing their relationship since the [After the Final Rose special]” airing immediately after Andi’s season finale.
Okay, but wasn’t that THREE YEARS AGO?
As you know if you’re a fan of the show, Nick asked Andi why she made love to him in the Fantasy Suite if she didn’t want to get engaged.
It was incredibly awkward, she was (unfairly) slut-shamed in the media, and Viall apologized to Dorfman publicly for making the comment.
Andi would go on to write a book, It’s Not Okay: Turning Heartbreak Into Happily Never After, in which she touched on the topic of Nick.
Josh Murray (above), who Andi chose over Nick (and ended her engagement with after six months) flat-out denied what she wrote in her memoir.
Nick, however, had a different opinion.
“What Andi does is she has a tendency of omitting information,” Viall said. “That being said, all the things that are written about me?”
“As far as like the events that happened and things that were said, a large part of it did happen, so I can’t say that it’s a fictional book.”
“It might be missing some information,” he said of his mixed portrayal, but concedes “a lot of the things she wrote about did happen.”
Again though, why the return in 2017?
The two briefly reunited for Nick’s Bachelor unveiling (along with Kaitlyn Bristowe) on Jimmy Kimmel Live last fall, but her being on the show?
That’s a twist we’re confident no one saw coming.
Describing Nick and Andi’s chat as “compelling,” a show insider spills, “They talk about their past and what went down between them.”
“Their Fantasy Suite date definitely comes up!”
One can only hope for cringe-worthy love-making references, but we won’t hold our breath. What we can promise is this Bachelor staple:
“Andi also tries to give Nick some advice.”
Basically, we don’t expect Andi’s surprise visit to change The Bachelor winner or have many consequences beyond making great TV.
That’s what it’s all about right?

Nick Viall, Andi Dorfman and Kaitlyn Bristowe: What Might Have Been!
Andi Dorfman and Nick Viall on The Bachelorette.
Kaitlyn Bristowe and Nick on The Bachelorette.
Oh, what might have been between the Wisconsin native and the two women who dumped him on back-to-back heartbreaking finales.
Incredibly, while he was never the fan favorite going up against Josh Murray (Andi"s season) or Shawn Booth, Nick got the last laugh:
ABC named Nick Viall The Bachelor for Season 21!
If you watch Bachelor in Paradise online, you"ve witnessed him lose another girl to Murray (again) in Amanda Stanton, but more significantly:
Nick may not have won the girl, but he won back (or won for the first time) the support of Bachelor Nation. And he will hand out the roses next.
But what about the two women who missed their shot?
Nick was head over heels for Andi, then possibly even more so with Kaitlyn. Bristowe supports him now, but is she having buyer"s remorse?
Doubtful. She and Booth seem pretty happy. Andi, though? You gotta wonder about that one, given how hard she hates that d-bag Josh.
Just saying. We"re curious. Anyway, here"s a look back at Nick"s road to The Bachelor and the two cute brunettes who let him get away!

Andi Dorfman: Releasing Second Tell-All!
Andi Dorfman is not done keeping you up to date with what’s going on in her life.
The former Bachelorette already shocked readers this year with her first book.
She held nothing back when she dissed the likes of Josh Murray, Nick Viall and Juan Pablo Galavis.
A key plot covered in the book was the breakdown of her relationship with Murray.
He won her heart on The Bachelorette, but like most couples from The Bachelor franchise, they just couldn’t make it work.
In the book, Dorfman states that she came clean to Murray about getting intimate with Nick Viall.
It’s no wonder both Murray and Viall hated each other, if Dorfman was sleeping with both of them.
It is a tell-all, so she kind of has to include all the details. Right?!
Her first effort was met with a less than stellar reception from from Josh Murray, who took issue with Dorfman painting him in a bad light.
He released a statement to Us: “It saddens me and is very unfortunate that Andi has chosen to characterize me in such a negative way. I pray she finds peace.”
That was a classy statement, but he didn’t particularly hold back on a recent episode of Bachelor in Paradise, which may have restarted the feud between he and his former fiancè.
Now, it appears Dorfman is not fazed by controversy surrounding the book and is pressing forward with a second.
“Book No. 2 is definitely a sequel,” the 29-year-old revealed.
“You thought dating 25 guys on reality TV was dramatic, dating in New York is insane!” the brunette beauty admits.
It sure sounds like New York is going to be a fun change of setting for this next chapter, but will she be able to refrain from dissing The Bachelorette stars?
What do you think about the prospect of a new tell-all from Andi Dorfman?

Andi Dorfman To Josh Murray: Shut the Eff Up!
Josh Murray and Andi Dorfman are probably not on speaking terms right about now.
Josh won Andi’s heart on The Bachelorette Season 10 and the two of them were engaged pretty swiftly.
Like most relationships in The Bachelor franchise, it didn’t stand the test of time.
Those reality TV relationships are fine in front of the cameras, but change when the cameras are gone.
If you watch Bachelor in Paradise online, you’ll know that Josh is in the house with his rival, Nick Viall.
The two of them have had beef ever since meeting on The Bachelorette.
Viall obviously resents Josh because he beat him for Andi’s heart in the emotional season finale.
It didn’t help matters that Josh swooped in and stole Amanda Stanton from him on Bachelor in Paradise.
Nick must feel like Josh wants everything that’s his.
We can agree with that to some extent, but what does he expect on a dating series?
We now know that things between Josh and Amanda are going very well.
In fact, they’re both engaged. As much as they wanted to hide it from the cameras before it was shown on TV, they just couldn’t hide it.
On the episode airing August 8, 2016, Amanda quizzed Josh about his troubled relationship with Dorfman.
Josh then spoke to the cameras about his ex-fiancè’s book.
“I can’t comment on specific things in any kind of book that my ex has written because it’s a fictional story. There’s stuff that’s so ludicrous — how do you comment on something like that?”
That was a pretty huge burn. Right?!
Nick even chimed in on the book, but he did not agree with Murray. Instead, he agreed with Dorfman’s assessment of Murray.
in the aftermath of the episode airing, Andi sent out a cryptic tweet on August 9.
“I speak two languages … English and Truth.”
Okay then.
What do you think about the latest drama?

Andi Dorfman SLAMS The Bachelor, Juan Pablo in Tell-All Book
Last month, Andi Dorfman blasted The Bachelor as “the stupidest thing I’ve ever been a part of.”
Now, the former contestant is going on record describing just how stupid – and toxic – her time on The Bachelor and The Bachelorette really was.
And wait till you hear what she says about the dudes she dated.
In her new tell-all book It’s Not Okay, she dishes all about her experiences on the shows, and it gets good.
She says the BS started from the initial casting call, which took place in a bar.
“Flash after flash, I stood stoically as I posed by for my ‘mug shot’ before finally I was allowed to pass Go, collect $ 200, and enter the bar,” she wrote.
“Look to your right – those girls slamming shots are the ‘party’ girls and are already sloshed. To your left is the ‘pretty prissy girls’ conversing with each other.”
She was then given 72 hours to complete 50 pages of forms, in which she was required to disclose everything from her dating history to her tax records.
Eventually she was selected and appeared on The Bachelor vying for the final rose of notorious d-bag Juan Pablo Galavis, conversations with whom she described as “dull.”
“Unfortunately, he also had the a**hole gene and in my opinion was one of the more narcissistic humans I had ever met,” she said of Juan Pablo.
“Narcissistic and ungrateful,” she continued. “He was honest to the point of offensive, entitled to the point of elitism and pompous to the point of disgust.”
She also revealed what happened on her date with him in the fantasy suite, and what prompted her to ditch him shortly thereafter.
“He blasted Ray Jay and R. Kelly all night long and showed me dozens of videos of his old soccer highlights on YouTube,” she said.
“All there was was the realization that I was nothing more than a pretty object he had no intentions of liking, let alone loving, and thus no amount of free travel was enticing enough to stay any longer.”
Oh, but she wasn’t finished.
Dorfman also had a few choice words about The Bachelorette runner-up, Nick Viall.
During their evening in the fantasy suite, Nick asked her if she’d rather “make love or f**k,” before admitting his own preference.
“Well, If I had four times, I’d like to f**k the first three times and make love the fourth,” he told her.
Charming.
Although Dorman referred to it as “ladyboner killing.”
I like this woman. But I doubt ABC feels the same.

Andi Dorfman: Josh Murray is an Insecure, Emotional D--k!
“I don’t usually let my emotions get the best of me.” – Andi Dorfman
For the 29-year-old attorney from Atlanta, her future seemed as clear cut as The Bachelorette spoilers from Reality Steve every spring.
“I was 100 percent sure I’d spend my life with him,” she says of Josh Murray, her fiance and final rose recipient from her season on ABC.
It was not to be. The romance crumbled, and HARD.
Murray, 31, was jealous and emotionally abusive, she says, adding that during fights, he would sometimes call her a bitch or a whore.
Andi makes the shocking revelation in her new book It’s Not Okay, a hilarious spoof on her one-time suitor Juan Pablo Galavis’ catchphrase.
There’s nothing hilarious about their romance, though. She writes that it was “the most volatile and f–ked up relationship of my life.”
Dorfman recalls that after she made love to Nick Viall during her overnight date on The Bachelorette, she was full-on afraid to tell Murray.
Threatening that they would be “over” if she slept with Viall, she panicked and lied, eventually coming clean before Nick spilled the beans.
“He was devastated, angry and hurt, badly,” she adds, nothing that “I apologized profusely for lying” but he could not accept what she did.
“He seemed to struggle,” Andi writes, “over whether he was more upset by the fact that I had lied or that I’d had sex with another man.”
Several more apologies later, Dorfman says, it became clear the issue was about Nick – and that eventually torpedoed their engagement:
“That one sexual escapade would become a power play used by my fiancé to justify his mistrust in me. It would be an excuse to call me a whore.”
“And it would eventually lead to the demise of my engagement.”
The “two hotheads,” as Andi calls herself and Murray, clashed often over her desire to return to work and over her friendships with men.
In September 2014, just two months after their season finale proposal aired, Andi handed back Josh’s engagement ring after a fight.
Unable to sleep, she took a walk … and broke down.
“Alone in a random church, I cradled my head in my hands and began to sob. For the first time, I thought, I don’t think we’re going to make it.”
“But the thought scared me. If I wasn’t the happy fiancée, who was I? Back then, I wasn’t ready to answer that question.”
Soon enough, she was. They split in January 2015.
Murray responded to Us, “It saddens me and is very unfortunate that Andi has chosen to characterize me in such a negative way. I pray she finds peace.”

Andi Dorfman Slams The Bachelor as "The Stupidest Thing" Ever
It’s safe to say Andi Dorfman will not sit back and watch The Bachelor online next season.
Or on television, either.
The former suitor – who made headlines for dumping Juan Pablo Galavis in 2014 after their fantasy suite date – told Cosmopolitan.com that she regretted signing on for The Bachelor from nearly the moment cameras started rolling.
“I remember standing in the rose ceremony room, it’s 4:30 in the morning at this point, it’s freezing cold, everyone is cold and nervous standing on these risers, and you could hear the teeth chattering and the deep breaths,” Dorfman explained to the site.
“And I watch Juan Pablo come in with a stack of roses, and I’m thinking:
‘This is the stupidest thing I’ve ever been a part of. I’m standing here cold, my feet hurt, and I’m waiting for a dude I don’t know to give me a rose.”
Dorfman is a former Assistant District Attorney for Fulton County, Georgia.
So it’s not exactly surprising that she’d be one of the only women to come out and admit how dumb/embarrassing/ridiculous the entire show set-up is.
Dorfman did end up starring on The Bachelorette Season 10 and getting engaged to Josh Murray.
But that relationship fizzled out in the end.
“It took me a while to look back on [The Bachelorette] fondly,” Dorfman also told Cosmo.
“I definitely didn’t during the breakup, and even when I was still in the relationship, when things weren’t good, I didn’t look at it fondly. But now I’m like, I got to do this incredible thing that I had no business doing. I have no business being on television, being on a red carpet, being on a press tour.
“So I can’t help but look at it and feel like one of the luckiest girls in the world.”
A new season of The Bachelorette kicks off on ABC on May 23.
And Dorfman’s memoir, “It’s Not Okay: Turning Heartbreak Into Happily Never After,” hits book shelves on May 17.
