If I had a nickel for every time some dude named Rob crashed out on a reality dating show, I’d have two nickels. Which isn’t a lot, but it’s weird that it happened twice. After Rob Rausch jumped in the pool following Andrea Carmona’s elimination on Love Island USA season 6, Rob Feeley had an aggressively messy meltdown during a St.
Patrick’s Day mixer on Love Is Blind season 11. A ton has also gone down since filming on LIB wrapped. Rob and his ex-fiancée, Michaella Giorgio, have separately spoken about his explosive behavior and their split.
Here’s everything Rob and Michaella have said about their breakup after Love Is Blind. After Rob introduced Michaella to his close friends during the Love Is Blind St. Patrick’s Day mixer, one of them started making inappropriate sexual comments about them going “at it like wild rabbits” after having too much to drink.
Instead of stopping his friend from making Michaella more uncomfortable, Rob had an outburst with off-camera producers because the restaurant had cut his friend off from ordering more beverages. On top of that, he also had a visceral reaction to Michaella chatting with her other connection from the pods, Matt Waldrip. According to Michaella, Rob got “aggressive” with her off-camera and said she has “a lot to gain professionally coming on this show.” “That’s probably the most insulting thing you could say, that I’m here for the wrong reasons,” she said during a confessional.
So to hear that from the man who is closest to me is kind of a huge deal.” The blow-up ultimately led Michaella and Rob to call off their engagement. According to Tudum, Rob packed his stuff and left once they got back to their apartment. We separated, and then it was just over,” he shared.
During a post-show interview with Tudum, Michaella admitted she felt “betrayed” by how he acted at the pod squad mixer. I have shown you the most I’ve ever shown anybody about myself and been so patient and kind. How could you be saying these things in front of your friends and on camera?’” Michaella also told Vulture that she and Rob nearly quit the show before he introduced her to his friends and had his meltdown at the mixer.
