Pool boy who was reportedly romantically involved with Jerry Falwell Jr's wife Becki has accused him of being a predator. Giancarlo Granda has also claimed that the former President of Liberty University sent him a photograph of a “Liberty University student exposing herself at their farm”.

Granda and Becki had an affair from 2012 to 2018. They were also sexually involved, with Falwell Jr sometimes watching them, Granda claimed. Due to the allegations, Falwell Jr resigned from his position at the Christian university. While he and his 55-year-old wife have admitted the affair, they have refuted Granda’s claims that Falwell Jr participated in it.

However, on August 25, Granda said that the father-of-three was a "predator" in a statement to the press. “In his effort to lie and discredit me, the Falwells are exposing to the world why I felt it was important to step forward and tell the truth about them. The fiction they are peddling in an effort to save themselves is on par with the kind of victim-shaming tactics we've come to expect from people who have abused their positions of power and authority,” the ex-pool boy and Miami businessman said.

He added: “The reality is Jerry Falwell is a predator. I know this because he sent me an image of a female Liberty University student exposing herself at their farm. This is not appropriate conduct for someone who up until this week, has been charged with overseeing the well-being of thousands of vulnerable and impressionable students." Granda also mentioned that he was not gaining any profit "in any way, shape or form" from the scandal.



 

When Falwell Jr was questioned about the nude photo allegation, he did not completely deny it but said it may have happened when neither he nor Becki was at the Virginia farmhouse. He also said that his daughters-in-law were using a guesthouse on the property, and while the camera was on, one of them pulled up her skirt. “She had on, I don’t know how to say this, granny panties," Falwell Jr said, adding that he thought the picture was funny, so he took a screenshot of it and sent to a number of people. He also branded Granda a "criminal" and a "liar."

This whole sex scandal started to come into the light on Sunday, August 23, when Falwell issued a lengthy letter to the Washington Examiner. In the letter, he revealed Becki’s affair with a 'family friend', who is now blackmailing them. He did not give the name of the man in the letter but added that he has forgiven his wife. “Becki and I forgave each other because while her indiscretion may have been more obvious and apparent, I realized that there were important smaller things I needed to do better too,” he said.

But after the revelation, Granda came out in his defense and claimed that Falwell watched his wife have sex during the affair. He also mentioned about his first encounter with the couple as he said Becki seduced him the first day they met and her husband watched them in his Speedo as they had sex. "During my work shift at the Fontainebleau Hotel in March 2012, I was chatting with some girls my age (20 at the time). Becki said, 'Those girls don’t know what they’re doing, you need someone with more experience’,” Granda said.

He added: “And then she goes, 'But one thing.' And I'm like, 'Okay.' And she's like, 'My husband likes to watch.' And just then he comes out and he's wearing a Speedo.”
