The bachelor star Nick Viall congratulated his ex-girlfriend, Vanessa Grimaldi, on her engagement. Fans, however, point out that the comment “sounds a bit jealous.” The former winner of the Viall season announced on her Instagram on August 10, 2020 that her friend, Josh Wolfe, had asked the question the night before.
What happened to Nick Viall and Vanessa Grimaldi?
On the 21st season of The Bachelor, Nick Viall founded thirty women. Eventually, he reduced his participants to 29-year-old Vanessa Grimaldi from Montreal, Quebec, and 25-year-old Raven Gates from Hoxie, Arkansas.
Viall introduced Grimaldi during the final rose ceremony, which aired March 13, 2017. She was the first Canadian participant to be won as the winner of the show. However, the two ended their engagement only months later – on August 25, 2017. A source told Entertainment Online that the two had differences from day one.
“Moving to Los Angeles or elsewhere in the long run was never really on the table for them,” a source explained. “And unfortunately, it seems like Nick never intended to move to Montreal.”

Family means a lot to Grimaldi, and she was not happy with her move to live with Viall in LA. Another source added that she did not like being in the spotlight. The two parted ways amicably.

When the former Bachelor leader, Viall, saw that his ex was announcing her engagement, he quickly commented on his congratulations. However, fans are of the opinion that the answer was too much.
“Well, thank God, I followed you back a week ago to hear this news,” Viall wrote on Grimaldi’s engagement photo. ‘Congrats to you. Happy man. ”

Fans were not happy about the former Bachelor’s need to talk about himself before congratulating his ex-girlfriend.
“Inserting himself into her engagement post and mentioning that he design ‘follow her back’ is one of the most Nick Viall things I’ve ever seen, ‘one fan wrote on Reddit.
Other fans soon chimed in, “It’s not about you, Nick!”
Viall recently interviewed several of his ex-girlfriends for his new show on Patreon. After the podcast with Grimaldi, the two followed each other on Instagram. However, fans are not happy that the star insists on bringing this up in his ex’s very special engagement post.
Grimaldi did not respond to Viall’s comment, but many fans chimed in
“We love a supportive ex,” one of Viall replied on Instagram.
It seems that not everyone thought the comment was too focused on the Bachelor.

“Typical!” added another Redditor. “He sounds a little jealous or at least / hopes to be invited to the wedding.”
Perhaps Viall is looking for an invitation to the wedding.
