Introducing: Love Trapped

0:00Tonight, former bachelor star Clayton Eckert. Clayton Eckert. Clayton Eckert. The bachelor's Clayton Eckert. He had a brief romantic encounter with this woman who later claimed she was pregnant with his twins. Well, he says try to destroy him. I mean, this is really an unbelievable story. I am done nothing to get pregnant by the fucking bachelor! This story starts with a very familiar scene, an at-home pregnancy test. It was just her and I waiting for the results. The woman he was standing next to was essentially a stranger, someone who had reached out to him on LinkedIn. They'd only hooked up once. One line shows up right away. Many of us have been there before. Whatever result you're hoping for, the wait is excruciating. And then the second line starts coming in. And I'm like, wow, she's actually pregnant.

1:00This moment changed Clayton Eckert's life forever, but not in the way he expected. Every time you think it couldn't get crazier, it just does. Over the next two years, he would be thrown into the spotlight again, this time becoming the center of a story that was spiraling out of his control. The media is here. You know that this case has gone viral. The dating contract, stalkerish behavior, she sent me over 500 emails and text messages. Agreed to date me, but I'm also suing you. It's just chaos. Had she not gone public, things wouldn't be where they are today. Please search for a car. It's a story about who you believe and why you believe them. It's not about men versus women. It's about victims versus abusers. It would take a group of strangers all across the country to finally prove the truth. My bullshit meter went off right away. They found information that I don't think any private investigator could have found.

2:02The smoking gun of the entire case discovered life. Every day was a new twist. She makes up all these characters and she creates fake personas. This is unlike anything I've ever seen before. There's so much collateral damage from this story. What would come out was a whole group of victims who'd fallen into the same trap. I got a DM that said, hey, you need to look into this court case, you're not the only one. Bingo! This shit doesn't happen twice. I'm Stephanie Young. This is Love Trapped. And this season, you'll hear from Clayton Eckerd himself. This is something that's more common than people realize. It's called Getting Trapped. Listen to Love Trapped on the iHeartRadio app, Apple podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Miss Owens, I'm going to ask you one final time.

3:02You were never pregnant by Clayton Eckerd. Correct? Try the least.
