The Bachelor: Forget Jason, Melissa Reveals New Boyfriend. Buddytv
March 15th, 2009Taking into account some recent developments, it looks like Melissa Rycroft’s now infamous dumping on the latest season of The Bachelor was a huge blessing in disguise after all. Not only did she get unprecedented support from people about the incident (while Jason Mesnick and Molly Malaney were portrayed as backstabbing villains), she landed a belated spot on yet another ABC show Dancing with the Stars, and, judging from the ratings, helped make the transition on ABC’s Monday night lineup as fluid and successful as possible.
As if that weren’t enough, Us Weekly reports that Melissa hasn’t exactly been pining over Jason weeks after the televised dumping. Melissa revealed that she has been dating long-time friend and insurance agent Ty. She first mentioned Ty, which ironically is also the name of Jason’s four-year-old son, on a recent appearance on The Ellen DeGeneres Show.
“We’ve been really good friends, but the timing was never right,” she says. “With all this going on, he’s my support system. It’s funny how things happen.”
