'The Bachelorette': Is Zac lying about cheating? Fans call Tayshia gullible for believing his story

Zac Clark confessed to cheating in his relationship before leaving Tayshia completely distraught as her ex-husband too cheated on her. However, he, later on, shared a tiny detail which had her relieved

The preview for the recent episode of 'The Bachelorette' that aired last week was the most dramatic yet. There was talk about cheating. Zac Clark had admitted he'd cheated on his girlfriend in the past and the teaser also made it look like another contestant Riley too could have been the one who was hiding something really explosive from Tayshia Adams. Now, the episode premiered on December 8 and a lot of men ended up being asked uncomfortable questions while being all wired up and taking a polygraph test.

Zac was asked if he'd cheated before to which he answered in the positive and the light turned green confirming he was telling the truth. Tayshia and Zac have a lot of chemistry and the intensity of which seems to increase every passing episode. However, she was left totally distraught after Zac's revelation considering the fact that she'd been cheated on by her ex-husband Josh Bourelle. 

Later on, Tayshia and Zac regrouped and she spoke about how uncomfortable it made her to learn that he'd cheated in a relationship before. Zac then told her the story about when it happened. He said that he was in a relationship and it was a girl with who he was in love at that time. He then told her that he was in 6th grade, in a perfect relationship with his first girlfriend and then he met another girl at Bowl-A-Rama where he french kissed her while still being very much in a relationship. Tayshia and Zac shared a hearty laugh and the former was very relieved that it was not as intense as she imagined.

Tayshia might've bought Zac's explanation, however, fans watching the episode are slamming her and calling her "gullible" for doing so. "And how gullible is @Tayshia to believe Zac’s sixth grading cheating story. I mean come on. I mean it could be true, but very well could NOT be as well. #bachelorette #TheBachelorette #TheBacheloretteABC." "Lmaooo she’s so gullible #TheBachelorette," wrote another. "Tayshia is so open-hearted and wants to see the best in people but she is gullible AF to whatever these men say I get being open to the process but don’t be open to the bullshit either #BacheloretteABC #thebachelorette #bachelorette" read another tweet. "I can’t believe Tayshia told Zac, the creepiest guy in the group who’s also clearly a liar after that sixth-grade cheating story, that she’s falling in love with him. come on, girl you know he’s full of shit #TheBachelorette" wrote another fan. "Tayshia loves Zac C too. Hmm. Last week I would've been all for it. I didn't like his weird 6th-grade cheating scandal lie? IDK man #TheBachelorette" read another tweet.
