Thrown for a loop? Jordan Rodgers, former quarterback and instant front-runner on The Bachelorette season 12, goes on the defensive after JoJo Fletcher confronts him about his ex-girlfriend in the ABC dating series’ Monday, June 20, episode.
The preview clip shows Fletcher, 25, and Rodgers, 27, sharing a one-on-one moment, when she reveals to the ex–NFL player that she recently chatted with one of his former paramours.
“I actually met somebody that you used to date,” the Bachelor season 20 runner-up tells him. “She was in Dallas, and this girl told me that you guys had dated, and you kind of were off and on with her, you kind of blew her off, there was some trust stuff. You don’t look happy.”
After Rodgers responds, Fletcher doesn’t appear satisfied with his answer and asks him directly, “Was there cheating?”
Rodgers, an aspiring sports journalist, had previously hinted to Fletcher during the Monday, June 6, episode about his troubled past relationship. He admitted to the real estate developer that he “made a lot of mistakes as far as putting things ahead of that relationship, and insecurities, and who I was, and where my career was at, and where I thought I should be, and the person I thought I should be.”
Us Weekly exclusively reported earlier this month that the Bachelorette happened to meet one of Rodgers’ exes, trainer Brittany Farrar, last winter in Dallas.
“Brittany told JoJo that Jordan wasn’t a great boyfriend,” the insider revealed to Us. “She said there were trust issues.”

The Bachelorette airs on ABC Mondays at 8 p.m. ET.
