Sharing his experience. Bartise Bowden thinks that his fellow Love Is Blind alums were a bit hard on him and Cole Barnett during the Netflix series’ reunion episode.
“I think we were both attacked. They aggressively attacked Cole,” Bartise, 27, exclusively told Us Weekly on Monday, November 21. “But here’s the deal, Cole was, like, fighting back. I just sat there. I was like, ‘You guys are right. Like, whatever you’re saying, I literally did. So, are you gonna beat a dead horse at this point or are we moving on?’”
The Texas native proposed to Nancy Rodriguez during the pod phase of the reality dating show’s third season, which premiered in October. He and the speech pathologist, 33, had their ups and downs and Bartise ultimately said “no” on their wedding day.
“I think Nancy brought this up [during the reunion], I don’t know if they aired it, but she was like, ‘The difference between Bartise and Cole was [that] Bartise was brutally honest and kind of an asshole to your face,” the CPA told Us.
“Meanwhile, the girls had this thought that Cole was more deceitful and undermining and so he was there defending himself. I was just there, like, ‘You guys are right, I’m owning up to it.’ So, they couldn’t attack me as aggressively because I don’t think I gave them opportunity to.”
On the show, Bartise didn’t shy away from admitting that he found another woman from the pods, Raven Ross, physically attractive. While talking to Nancy during their Malibu getaway, he called Raven, 29, a “smoke show.” The University of Texas alum told Us that in hindsight, he isn’t proud of how he handled the situation.
“It was definitely hard and … embarrassing to watch. … I definitely feel bad about that,” he admitted.
