Tasos Hernandez was one of the men competing for the heart of Bachelorette Andi Dorfman on this season of The Bachelorette, but tabloids have suggested that he was not actually in to girls.
I have to admit when I first saw Tasos my gaydar went off a little–the “wedding coordinator”, the dance moves, the earrings, the meticulous grooming and manscaping, but as the season progressed I just decided that he was super sensitive metro-sexual male with excellent stripper moves. After all he did shed some real tears when Andi dumped him.
But now that he has been cast on Bachelor in Paradise and rumors are circulating it will be interesting to see if he does develop a connection with one of the ladies on the show–no pressure Tasos.
In Touch published a photo spread a few weeks ago claiming that the 30-year-old Denver Wedding Coordinator/DJ was gay and claiming they had a source.
The segment claimed, “Andi’s Guy Caught in Gay Scandal!” alleging their anonymous source claims that he is “out” in his group of friends. Although interestingly the text from that In Touch article is now gone–so perhaps they pulled it.
Tasos pal JJ O’Brien poked fun at the article on Twitter, writing “wow @TasosHernandez – I can’t believe you cheated on me like this.”
Tasos responded:
“@mrjjobrien sorry. Didn’t mean to offend. Really love In Touch’s accurate & verifiable information. Quality magazine I tell ya. #sarcasm.”
It’s not uncommon that one of the castmates on the Bachelor or Bachelorette gets accused of being gay, but as of yet none of those rumors have proven to be true.
