It didn't take Jake Pavelka very long to respond to one of the most recent nasty rumors about his time outside "The Bachelor" house. The reality star is facing allegations that he returned to an ex-girlfriend after choosing Vienna Girardi on the show's finale -- however, he told Entertainment Tonight that the relationship actually ended far before taping began:
"There was no overlap with that or any other relationship during the show...It is unfortunate that people such as this are trying to financially capitalize on or disparage my incredible relationship with Vienna. I only wish everyone could be as happy for us as we are happy together."
From one standpoint, it's easy to say that Jake is obviously the victim here of jealous attacks by someone looking to capitalize on fame. Until we have some more evidence to the contrary, his story does appear the easiest to believe. Why? If this person was supposedly so desperate to have the world know the truth about Jake, they probably would have released this news several weeks ago rather than days following the show's finale.
Jake and Vienna are now together in Los Angeles, as the one-time pilot is preparing for his shot on "Dancing With the Stars" with partner Chelsie Hightower.

Does it really matter??? Actually Vienna reminds me of Hailey Glassman who was with Jon Gosselin. I guess Jake and Vienna deserve each other. Sounds like she's had quite the past!!!
