Casey Woods first entered the “Bachelor” world during Season 18 of “The Bachelorette.” Most recently, the 37-year-old appeared on Season 8 of “Bachelor In Paradise,” however, he did not have the best exit.

During the October 17 episode, Woods stirred up some drama after telling fellow cast member, Brittany Galvin, that Peter Izzo was talking about her behind her back, even saying she was only here to promote her social media.

The 37-year-old then started to feel faint, even informing bartender Wells Adams that he felt dizzy and may pass out. "I just feel so much stress right now... Everyone is pissed off. I didn't think my actions would have that much of an effect. It's just eating me up inside," he said. Within seconds, he collapsed to the sand.

Dephillipo spoke out after the reunion, admitting he feels better now that the finale aired. “I feel like I can finally start putting my relationship with Victoria to bed and moving on. I’m ready to put it behind me,” he told Bachelor Nation. “I was surprised by a lot at the reunion. For her to go as low as she did and bring up arguments that we had in private, it became a bit of a ‘he said,’ ‘she said’ situation. I don’t say things like that. For me, that all felt like a low blow. I think she said that stuff because was nervous, but I just really didn’t want us to go there.”

He continued, “I feel like I got the closure I needed at the reunion, but also a while ago. I know now everything I need to know to move forward with my life. We very much weren’t working out. We were on two different levels. She is used to a lifestyle that I wasn’t there for yet. She seemed to need more and it wasn’t supposed to work out right now.”
