Tayshia Adams on Greg Grippo 'Bachelorette' acting rumors: 'That will be addressed'

Rumors are swirling about the 28-year-old's true intentions after it surfaced that he attended William Esper Studio, a prominent New York City acting school, from 2017-19.

"He had a big ego, but most kids at that school did," an unnamed source told The Sun shortly after this season premiered in June. He did speak a lot about fame though and it seemed like he needed a lot of recognition to feel good about himself. For some reason, he’s trying to come off like he’s in marketing, which is just not true. Or if it is, is just an extremely recent development and not at all how he’s portraying it."

"Greg thought he could pull a fast one on the audience by just not acknowledging he's a trained actor and pretending to be some marketing guy," he, she or they added. "He deleted so much off his social media account and LinkedIn of any signs of acting and has told friends not to mention it if anyone asks about it. And he's untagged himself from all of his classmates' photos."

In the episode, Thurston had her hometown dates. Greg told her that he was in love with her during his, admitting that he had gushed to his family that Thurston is "the one," and he was thoroughly underwhelmed by her reaction, though she had made it clear that she wasn't telling any of the finalists "I love you" until she made her ultimate choice. Greg wasn't satisfied with that explanation and quit the show.

Thurston's journey will conclude Monday (Aug. 9) beginning at 8 p.m. EST on ABC.
