- Michelle Jeffries tells TMZ her son looks "over the top on TV" but is not an obsessive or abusive person, describing him as a small-town guy who loves strongly.
- Her comments follow days of viewer outrage over live-feed clips showing Rylie telling Katherine Woodman they will be together "whether you like it or not" and promising to marry her.
- Fans have launched removal petitions and flooded social accounts with concerns for Katherine, describing Rylie’s conduct as controlling and emotionally aggressive.
- Viewers also accuse producers of cutting or delaying live feeds to minimize troubling footage, and a reported source says the show can edit, cut, or delay streams at its discretion.
- On the alleged "baby mama" storyline, Michelle says the claim is unverified, adds Rylie is open to a paternity test after birth, and notes there has been no official action or statement from CBS.
