Social media users have been going wild after Love Is Blind contestant Chelsea Blackwell admitted to her pod date Jimmy Presnell that she's been told she resembles the Transformers actress, with some fans calling that a stretch.
However, Brian is sympathetic to the reality star, telling TMZ on March 2 that "people should cut her some slack."
"Megan is a very one of a kind beauty," the Beverly Hills, 90210 actor explained. "It's why a lot of people say she's possibly the most beautiful woman in the world. She has a very incredible look to her, so that's a tough comparison I think for anyone to make."
And Brian—who shares children Noah, 11, Bodhi, 10, and Journey, 7, with Megan—doesn't believe the actress would mind the comment, noting, "I think Megan would be flattered."
And considering Chelsea has dark hair and blue eyes, he could see how "on certain days" she could have been told she looks like the bombshell.
"I reached out to Megan," Chelsea exclusively told E! News, "and I just apologized to her, like 'I'm so sorry I included you in this mess.'"
While she didn't share if Megan replied, the flight attendance has been trying to brush off the drama with a smile, joking last month that she's being "dragged" for her offhand comment.
"I do feel bad. Everyone's like ‘You catfished him!' Man, I didn't mean to," Chelsea told Access Hollywood. "I do regret having that conversation with him. Why'd we have to do that?"
E! News has reached out to Megan's rep for comment on the show but hasn't heard back.
