'The Bachelor: Winter Games' News: Alcohol Intake To Be Monitored During The Show
The alcohol intake of the contestants of "The Bachelor: Winter Games" will be monitored by the staff.
A source reportedly told People that the people behind the Olympic-themed spin-off of the long-running dating reality show will strictly enforce a "two drink per hour maximum" rule. This is the same guideline that was implemented during the previous season of "Bachelor in Paradise" after the production was shutdown as the effect of the sex scandal involving Corinne Olympios and DeMario Jackson.
According to the report, the producers of the show want to make sure that the contestants of the "Winter Games" will not be drunk before participating in the activities that resemble Olympic sports like skiing and ice dancing to ensure their safety.
