Becca's ex says he pitched The Bachelor producers on "crashing" the show

The Athletic

Ross Jirgl, a Stanford football coach specializing in sports performance, explained that he had to crash The Bachelor after hearing from a mutual friend that his ex-girlfriend of seven years was a competitor. So he tracked down contact information for the producers. “It's kind of crazy to say, but I think it was going to take something big like this for me to actually be over her," Jirgl, who hasn't seen last week's episode, told The Athletic. "The way I look at it is, I flew to Peru during the busiest week of the year to go on a TV show, risking my reputation on national TV to get her back. When she said no, I could completely see it in her eyes." Jirgl said he's now totally over Becca. ALSO: What about Ross Jirgl as the next Bachelor?
