Jackson was, of course, at the centre of a huge sexual misconduct allegation with Corrine Olympios that forced a temporary halt on production of Bachelor in Paradise.
The TV personality called Harrison an “a**hole” and revealed threats Jackson directed towards The Bachelor host. “It was to the point where like 100 per cent I kept it real, I called Louie and I said ‘If he tries this s**t when I do the sit down with Corinne, I will knock him the f**k out. Like period. Like straight up,’” Jackson confessed.
“I was like, I just don’t like the blatant disrespect for a man that I do not know, like bro, I met you three times for less than this,” he added. “And it’s funny because the media will portray certain people in certain lights and whatnot, but he had a crazy hard on for me and I did not get it at all. It was nuts.”

Harrison previously criticized Jackson after the “Men Tell All” special in an interview with E! News. “DeMario’s DeMario,” he said. “You kind of take him for who he is. He’s a loudmouth, he’s funny, it’s DeMario.”
“You take him with a grain of salt, for sure. He said probably the most horrible, sexist, misogynistic things and then started jumping on Lee about being a misogynist,” Harrison continued. “So if anybody should not be throwing stones in this glass house, probably DeMario.”
Harrison concluded, “Decisions, I don’t think, are his strong suit.”
ET Canada reached out to Harrison’s rep, who says he has no comment regarding Jackson’s recent statement.
