Nick Viall recently went the f*ck off on Madison Prewett for allegedly creating a fake Instagram account to leave herself positive comments, saying she's known "to be a little bit of a liar." Some Bachelor fans thought Nick's comments kinda came out of nowhere, so he went ahead and defended himself during an Instagram Q&A when a follower asked why he hates her so much.

"I don't hate Madison," Nick wrote. "I have disagreed with some of her decisions she made public. I have also agreed with other things she made public. I have a podcast and I give my opinions about the things people make public when using their platforms. I made my opinion public, some people criticized me for it. That's okay.... Conversation and disagreement are healthy."

Nick was also asked if he'd have Madison on his podcast, and he said it would be an "interesting discussion" and that while he doesn't think she'd agree to the appearance, he'd "love to be wrong."

Here are Nick's full original comments on Madison, um, just in case you happen to be curious...

“We also know Madison to be a little bit of a liar. It’s true! I mean, people wanna forget. I know Madison wants to forget it. But, her Instagram. That’s not an allegation. It’s a fact she did that. And listen, it is silly and trivial, right? And there’s a logical explanation for it, which is that she wanted people to like her. It’s a totally relatable thing. Listen, I’m more critical of that, and I know Madison thinks I don’t like her and I know people think I've been hard on Madison. I think she’s just fine, I’ve even defended Madison. But if you’re gonna be righteous and you’re gonna be pious, and you’re gonna like talk about your relationship with God, and how you want to be an example to young women, blah blah blah blah blah, then I hold you to a higher standard. And so don’t be a liar, don’t be vain. I’m vain, I can be vain! Don’t have your family use Bruce Pearl’s house for your hometown and sell it as your own home. When it’s not your home!”
