‘Bachelor’ Producer Julie LaPlaca Speaks Out About the Rumors That She Got Romantic with Peter Weber – Cosmopolitan.com
- Bachelor producer Julie LaPlaca just addressed the rumors that she and Peter Weber had a romantic relationship.
- She wrote, “whoever ends up as his copilot for life is one lucky lady.”
Being a card-carrying member of Bachelor nation has been exhausting this week. Not only did ABC put us all through a four-hour season finale, but Peter Weber and Madison Prewett already called off their relationship two days (two! days!) after declaring their love on live television. Oh, and that’s all after Peter proposed to Hannah Ann Sluss and then dumped her for Madison. So yeah…it’s been a lot!
Chris Harrison shared that Peter was “embarrassed” after the finale, and it’s probably only gotten worse for pilot Pete since his breakup with Madison, which might be why Bachelor producer Julie LaPlaca—who was rumored to be dating Peter at one point—decided to share a public message of support for Peter on her Insta. She wrote, “Yes that was @pilot_pete in the tan jacket, no we didn’t kiss at midnight. But whoever ends up as his copilot for life is one lucky lady, because this guy has a heart of gold ❤️✈️.”
And while she makes it clear that she and Peter don’t have anything romantic going on, it still sounds like these two are close. An ABC exec previously dished about their relationship, saying:
He is very, very close to her. She’s the producer who is sort of his day-to-day producer, so she’s there with him, and she knows Peter very well and knows his family very well. They’re all very fond of her.
So even though Peter didn’t end up with a fiancée/girlfriend/partner this season, at least he made a friend. And that’s uh, kind of a win, right??
