Bachelor in Paradise contestant Jesse Kovacs is giving the answer to a question most fans of the show have: Did he have a threesome with Christy Hansen and Lucy Aragon?

"No, that's not -- it's not exactly how it went down, as I remember it, but there are probably some things I don't quite remember," Kovacs told The Observer.
"But what happened was, there may have been some activity between myself and Lucy on the way back from our date. But then once we got back to the resort, we all kind of just separated, and I ended up sort of hooking up with Christy, and fell asleep in their hut. Christy and Lucy were sharing this hut, and I woke up at like 5:30 in the morning.
Kovacs said he got a little surprise when he opened his eyes.
"Lucy's face was like a couple inches away from mine. I kind of shook it off and stood up and grabbed my clothes and got out of there. The whole threesome thing, that didn't happen," he insisted.
Kovacs, who appeared on The Bachelorette's fifth season and Bachelor Pad 1, claimed he had no idea he had the reputation for being a player and party animal.

"No, not at all... I didn't know any of these people, so to have a reputation with people you don't know -- it's kind of weird... I was in a serious relationship for four years, so I don't know how I got this playboy persona labeled on me," he told The Observer.
"It just was very strange to me, and I just went into it open-minded, thinking like, 'I'm here, and if I happen to meet someone that I'm into, great, but I'm not gonna fake it. I'm not going to couple myself up with someone just because that's the premise of the show.'"
Kovacs teased a "confrontation" is coming between himself and "multiple people" towards the end of the season.
As for whether he'd ever appear on Bachelor in Paradise again, Kovacs said, "Right after the shows, this is the same question that I always get, and I always say no, there's no way. I don't have the energy to go through this, because it's tough -- I hate watching myself on television or even hearing myself talk. But after the third one, why would I stop now? If they asked me, I guess I'd do it again."
