  • Nick Viall opened up about the rumors surrounding him and Demi Burnett's relationship.

  • Nick claims that he and Demi are NOT dating, despite what the internet thinks!


Nick Viall's time on The Bachelor may have finished ages ago, but it's no secret that he is still on the quest to find true love. And like any handsome single man with hordes fans, Nick has been inundated with dating rumors—and now, Bachelor in Paradise's Demi Burnett has come up as Nick's potential love interest, despite her recent breakup with Kristian Haggerty.

On his podcast, Viall Files, Nick discussed that one of his friends who lives in his apartment complex has been spilling private details of his life on Reddit. "I've been violated," Nick started. "We've talked about Reddit before on the show. I've tried not to go on. I haven't been on it in some time...But I do have friends and an occasional fan who reads and they brought it to my attention that I now live with someone in my intimate building—it's a building in Venice and there are six units—and I live with someone whose been spying on me." Dramatic!

Nick then formally addressed the dating rumors and pretty much stated that things between him and Demi are strictly platonic, TYVM! "Demi is a close friend, a dear friend," Nick said. "We've become close and I care very much about her."

Nick also explained that while Demi has attended his house a few times before, they haven't been hooking up. "Demi has in fact been to my place," he added. "As sometimes friends do go to each other's places." So you know that whole thing where people say girls and guys can't just be friends without hooking up? Yeah, Nick probably thinks that idea is complete bullsh*t.

So! There you have it, guys—Nick and Demi are not dating, so we can finally lay those rumors to rest and move on with our lives. Oh, happy day!
