How did the drama start?
Maria, however, thought her age was no big deal Madina, you are 31.
Joey probably loves it, Maria told other women in the house,perUs Weekly.

Sydney and Marias two-on-one date gets heated.
However, when confronted by Joey, Maria denied the exchange with Lea ever happened.
I would never say that, Maria said.
First of all, thats so vulgar.
Its such a lie.
Its crazy to me.
Maria then addressed the issue with Sydney directly.
Yeah, you know were on camera the entire time, right?
How is Lea involved?
What is the deal with Jess?
But Leas not the only woman left in the house who had a problem with Maria.
Pretty early convo for someone with a rose, she seeminglysaid to Mariabefore calling her disrespectful multiple times.
I do not condone bullying, name calling, etc.
and apologies were made immediately.
just remember that there are many conversations during and after filming that only we are aware of.
We are more than just characters on your screens, we are humans with real emotions and feelings.
Meanwhile, Madina may be the true winner here.
Once Maria returned from the two-on-one date, Lea was upset that Maria didnt face more pushback from Madina.
Maria knows that Sydney and I are close.
Fans largely praised Madinas mature outlook, especially after Madina seemed to subtly address the situation on TikTok.
You ate up Lea.
[Everything] you said [was] spot on and mature.
Handled it so well, one user commentedon one of Madinas TikTok videos.
Sydney says shes been harassed since the season began airing.
I didnt know I could feel this low my entire life.
To hear, Youre ugly.
You look like a man, it almost feels like I went back to square one.
She continued, I was told Id be better off dead.
People struggle with suicide ideation.
That is something that should not be taken lightly.
That is not something that we should be joking about.
We as a society need to be better.
We need to do better.
Its important to be aware that words you use, they pierce very deeply.
Bachelor Nation alums have thoughts.
I think theres a lot of context missing, and thats what Ill say, Iaconetti said.
And Im sure its not an argument about nothing.
Im sure Maria has been mean to some girls.
Iaconetti agreed, saying Sydneys behavior was annoying and cringy but I dont think shes mean.
Its not about getting to next week, its about building a connection, he saidonThe Viall Files.
Maria breaks her silence.
So what does Maria have to say about everything?
Thats just how I was raised.
So next time, Im just gonna zip it.
She continued, I didnt go into that house looking for trouble.
I wanted to make friends, make memories, and then make a love connection.
Despite telling fans that nobodys perfect, including myself, viewers in her replies remain staunchly Team Maria.
