Just when you thought he couldn’t get any worse, Jenn Tran’s ex-fiancé, Devin Strader proves you wrong. In addition to breaking off their engagement and sliding into the DMs of other girls, he also had a restraining order before appearing on The Bachelorette.
That’s right, Devin was arrested seven years before he appeared on the reality dating show. Information that probably would have been important for Jenn to have during her slightly controversial season.
Red flags flying for Devin Strader
Devin was already a bit sus during the Bachelorette. Everyone said he had a lot of potential red flags. His behavior after the season only confirmed those red flags even more, like breaking off his engagement, sharing private messages, and apparently sliding into the DMs of other women.
Not surprisingly, that’s not all. In 2017, Devin was arrested after he allegedly burglarized the home of his ex-girlfriend in Louisiana. Entertainment Weekly obtained an affidavit that his ex-girlfriend also filed a restraining order after the incident.
The woman was not named in the arrest warrant by the Baton Rouge Police Department. She told the police that she and Devin had recently broken up and he lived near her. The woman claimed that he allegedly burglarized her home and a diamond necklace Devin gave her was allegedly missing.
She also alleged to the police that Devin had come to her house banging on the door and screaming at her. This is what caused her to file the restraining order. And then allegedly later that evening Devin made a fire with what appeared to be the actual restraining order.
While the burglary arrest affidavit was public record the restraining order was sealed previously. It included a handwritten account of a woman that claimed Devin “spit on her and threw a drink at her” and that he “put her in a chokehold.” Since the documents were sealed The Bachelorette crew did not find it in their background search.
So it looks like Jenn dodged a bullet. Time will only tell what other red flags Devin might be hiding.
