The jurors are kept in the dark about what’s going on in the house until they get a new houseguest to update them. Alyssa Snider entered the jury house and dropped some juicy gossip.

“I knew Monte wouldn’t ever keep me in a million years,” Alyssa told them. “Taylor slept in Monte’s HOH bed for like three days, and anyway, that’s what–.”

Everyone was shocked by this, including Joseph. Joseph gave an interview for his reaction to the news. “I mean, like that’s, I guess, their business, or I don’t know,” he said, looking down at the ground.

Monte and Taylor did get physically close during the last days in the house. But it ended before the finale.

Taylor said Joseph had a ‘lawyer’ reaction to her fling with Monte

Fans got a peek into Joseph’s reaction in the jury house. But he opened up about why he was hesitant to react at all on the Off the Vine podcast.

“So Alyssa came into the jury house, and she made a comment that Monte and Taylor were probably sharing a bed,” Joseph explained. “And so that didn’t confirm or deny anything to me.”

Taylor noted that houseguests sometimes sleep in each other’s beds. “Personally, I mean, I didn’t leave the house,” Joseph said. “I did not leave the house telling Taylor like, ‘We’re in a relationship. We made it clear. We acted on anything.’ So she is definitely free to do whatever she wants. So I made it clear, and I think I said when they were interviewing, that’s their business like you know. They’re free to act however they want. Will love and support both of them no matter what.”

He added, “I think they were really worried for my reaction to that. But I mean, that wasn’t any confirmation, any denial. And I’m the type of person, I need the information to be presented to me before I react to something.”

Taylor joked, “It’s giving lawyer.” Joseph said he still would have waited to talk to Taylor and Monte before giving a reaction.

Taylor and Joseph are taking things slowly after the show. But she made it clear her relationship with Joseph is very different than Monte’s.

“And Monte and I had a really great…connecting moment,” she said on the Winner’s Circle. “I don’t know if that’s a long-lasting thing for us. I think we connect and match in some ways and not so much other ways. Where Joseph, he’s the lover boy that I wanted, I’ve been looking for so.”

She plans to go on her cruise with Joseph. Time will tell what else is in store for them.
