The Bachelor‘s Jessica Brody has accused Charlie Newling of sexual harassment after he sent her unsolicited graphic content.
On April 27, the reality star took to Instagram to share the chilling encounter she had with the former The Bachelorette contestant.
Trigger Warning: This article discusses a specific person’s experiences with PTSD as a result of sexual assault. This may be triggering to readers with similar experiences.
“I try not to post negative sh*t on here but I think this needs to be called out,” she started.
The 34-year-old shared that she’d received a DM from a man she’s “never spoken to” whom she recognised from The Bachelor franchise.
“With no context or soliciting, this man sent me a graphic video of him touching himself. This unhinged, bizarre and disgusting behaviour made me extremely uncomfortable and genuinely sick,” she continued.
She then went on to “name and shame” him.
Unfortunately, this wasn’t the first time the tattoo artist had experienced sexual harassment from a reality star.
“[The Bachelor] has some f*cking bin boys. This isn’t my first experience with sexual harassment from a Bachie guy. So gross,” she wrote in an Instagram story.
She then revealed that Charlie was expecting a baby, making his behaviour all the more unacceptable.
“He’s also expecting a child in June. And messaging random women this sh*t,” she wrote across a sonogram posted by Charlie’s partner.
Charlie Newling is convicted of sending his mother death threats
This isn’t the first time the father-of-one has found himself in trouble.
In August 2022, the 36-year-old was charged with using a carriage service to threaten to kill after sending his mother death threats while under the influence of a substantial amount of alcohol.
According to The Daily Telegraph, the crime occurred on April 25, 2022, when he said he would “torture” and “kill” her husband.
Charlie was sentenced to 13 months in prison to be serviced in the community through an intensive correction order.
Charlie is forcibly removed from a pub after being dumped on the Bachelorette
Not only that butjust days after being dumped by The Bachelorette‘s Ali Oetjen in 2018, footage surfaced of Charlie being forcibly removed and “wrestled” by security guards outside of the Golden Sheaf pub in Sydney.
Charlie was dragged out of the bar at 10:50 pm and was held by a security guard in a chokehold.
“He wrestled with three security [guards] for ages and was completely kicking off,” someone told the Daily Mail.
“They took him down and put him in a headlock. [He] lay there for ages until an ambulance rocked up, then the police came shortly after and it was all done.”
