Pretty much, if you end up as a contestant on The Bachelor or Bachelorette, everything in your past is fair game when it comes to the tabloids. They'll post photos of your days as a Hooters waitress, judge the fuck out of your face pre-nose job, and interview anyone and everyone who has ever diddled you, texted you, or met you at a party once.
Usually what they dig up is just "meh" shit. Nothing that will ruin your life, it might screw with your current relationship if you end up getting picked in the end, but it's never anything too serious. Until now.
The reports coming out about this season's West Lee and the circumstances of his wife's death is crazy sad-- and some believe shady too. According to People, his mother-in-law refuses to believe he didn't have something to do with it. A rep from the police department who investigated the case says, "Her mom voiced concern about the cause of death, but we looked into the case a second time," adding, "There was no physical evidence on scene that suggested Sarah Young's death was a homicide by Adam West Lee." (Hehe, Adam West. Sorry...)
In 2007, West's wife was found dead in their bathtub. Even though her death was ruled an accidental fresh water drowning, they still aren't sure if she purposely tried to kill herself. The coroner discovered she had marijuana and alcohol in her system, she had been very depressed, and had even been caught inhaling computer dusting spray two weeks earlier. Sarah had sadly attempted suicide twice before as well as getting into a few minor car accidents over a short period of time which prompted her family to seek medical help for her. Majorly heartbreaking.
On the season premiere of Ashley Hebert's Bachelorette last night, West brought up his wife of seven years explaining, "She had this history of seizures. One day she went and got in the bathtub. I checked on her and I found her face down in the tub. [I] pulled her out and I called 911."
Here comes the part where you roll your eyes though... W also admitted to law enforcement he was high as well at the time of her death. That obviously doesn't mean he killed her, and who knows if the outcome would have been any different had he been sober? Clearly, the girl had issues. It's just seriously tragic.
But even though the case is closed, I bet West-side is stoked that this is all coming out in the media now and causing doubt upon himself... But, really, he had to know it was coming after going on this show. He must reeeeally want to find love again, get engaged, break up, become the next Bachelor, find love, get engaged, break up...
