Us Explains the Cheating Rumors About Bachelor Nation’s Caila Quinn and Husband Nick Burrello

Bachelor Nation’s Caila Quinn and husband Nick Burrello made headlines when rumors swirled that he cheated on her.

Earlier this month, a content creator outlined a series of accusations against Nick, claiming he cheated on Caila with not one individual but “a couple different people.”

“There are posts and threads deep in the world of Bachelor Reddit that talk about Caila Quinn’s husband cheating on her,” she said. “The post was made by somebody that he was seeing. In a sense they were texting with each other. It was a relationship over text. He met this person on Grindr and he is dating a trans woman.”

Caila, for her part, denied the speculation. “WTF is this…” she commented on a content creator’s TikTok on Wednesday, April 16, alongside a laughing emoji. “This isn’t true. And my husband doesn’t go on business trips. This is a joke. No one believe these rumors. This is FALSE.”

So, what is happening? Us Weekly explains below:

The Key Players

Caila was introduced on season 20 of The Bachelor in 2016, finishing second-runner up when vying for the affections of Ben Higgins. Later that year, Caila traveled to the beaches of Mexico in a second attempt to find love. While there, Caila sparked a romance with Jared Haibon — much to the dismay of now-wife Ashley Iaconetti.

Nick tied the knot with Caila in 2021. The pair share children Teddi, 2, and Christian, 7 months.

The Gist

A content creator alleged that there were text threads on Reddit between Nick and an anonymous woman — who addressed who he was.

“He talks a lot about his wife and him kind of struggling with doing something behind her back,” the content creator claimed. “They actively make plans to meet up when he’s on one of his business trips.”

The content creator alleged that Burrello also admitted in the text threads that it was “not the first time he’s cheated on Caila.”

“It’s very sad to report this but I think he needs to be called out. It’s already public information so please don’t come after me for this,” the creator continued. “It’s very unfortunate for the kids that are involved in this but you know I don’t think he even cared or thought about it or the consequences of that.”

Why It’s a Big Deal

Caila and Nick have been going strong for years. In 2023, Caila gushed over how “caring” Nick had been during her pregnancy with Teddi.

“He has been unbelievably thoughtful — with back massages and an ice-cold Yeti full of water before bed,” she told Us. “Just the other day he had to shower in a slippery tub and he asked me if I wanted him to hold my hand as I showered so I wouldn’t slip and fall too. And it just reminds me that I am so lucky to have him as a partner.”

What People Are Saying

After Caila replied in the comments section, the content creator doubled down on her accusation. “So sorry girl. You should look into the post — it has pictures, texts and videos,” she wrote. Caila has not yet replied.

Zachary Reality, for his part, weighed in, writing in the comments section, “I have not seen the Reddit pictures but I saw the thread. I want to believe Caila, this is so unfair. If I saw these pictures or videos I would question them, but as of now, I’m believing Caila.”

What We’re Saying

While Caila has denied the allegations on her husband’s behalf, Nick has yet to publicly address the cheating claims. Based on his private Instagram account, it’s likely he may never release a public statement on his side of the story.

What’s Next

Caila has continued posting her lifestyle content as normal, enjoying a strawberry picking outing to Texas’ Sweet Berry Farm with her daughter. She captioned her Monday, April 21, Instagram post, “Simple joys of motherhood seeing your baby girl take a bite out of every strawberry she picked to take home .”
