How Nick Viall is fighting ‘bullshit’ rumours amid Natalie Joy cheating allegations
The speculations regarding Nick Viall and his wife Natalie Joy don’t interest him.
During the Tuesday, June 25, episode of the «LadyGang» podcast, the 43-year-old former Bachelor appeared to acknowledge accusations made against Joy, 25, who was accused of being unfaithful after the couple became engaged.
Ignoring rumors is the easiest way to deal with them, according to Viall.
«I avoid using [social media]. I unplug,» he clarified. «I simply excel at safeguarding both my family’s and my own mental health. When I say that I enjoy working, I really do.
I have always enjoyed working. My work has been enjoyable. I want to be less famous the more I work on the show.
After spending years in the spotlight, Viall said he’s learned a lot about handling trolls. «You know why I choose this lane. I just unplug and stay offline. «I don’t read comments,» he said in response.
Nick Viall is «eager to tie the knot» following Natalie Joy’s engagement.

Viall admitted that he is «aware of a ton of rumors about» his life despite his efforts to downplay the criticism, saying, «I know that I’m unaware of 90 percent more because I don’t read it.»
When Keltie Knight pointed out that bringing Joy on as his “Viall Files” podcast cohost opened them up to even more scrutiny, Viall said his wife has “gotten much better” at dealing with the comments. He argued that engaging with the rumors only makes things worse.
“Like, how many people have promoted bulls—t rumors about themselves only to deny it?” he said. “It blows my mind. … Listen, I’m human. As much as I say to stay offline, I’ve had my moments of weakness. I had to get better and better at this … you just move on.”
Speculation surrounding Viall and his wife initially surfaced on Reddit and escalated after Perfect Match star Harry Jowsey referenced the cheating rumors in a recent Instagram reply.
(Us Weekly reached out to Viall’s team for comment.)»He can’t keep his dk out of his mouth 50 year old man gossiping about people in their 20s dating, he should be more focused on his wife cheating on him and repairing that then [sic] worrying about me,» Jowsey, 27, wrote in response to a fan who claimed she was «getting roasted» by Viall.
On Wednesday, June 26, Joy, for her part, seemed to address the issue in a subtle way on the podcast «The Viall Files,» pointing out that in real life and on reality TV, men are always given «the benefit of the doubt.»
She clarified, «Women just don’t get the benefit of the doubt.» «And all I hear is women being shamed, shamed, shamed, shamed.»
However, with males, it’s as if «They’re men,» or «Men will be men.»
