Johnny Bananas and Dee Valladares’ showmance is rubbing one cast member the wrong way.
During the Wednesday, August 6, episode of The Challenge: Vets and New Threats, contestant Will Gagnon had a hard time seeing the MTV vet and Survivor winner getting cozy in between challenges.
But as the cast headed out to dinner for food and drinks, Will’s words were put to the test as Johnny and Dee got a little too close for some people’s comfort.
“I punched the f*** out of the wall because my heart’s on my sleeve,” the Are You the One? alum said while revealing his bloody injury. “I hooked up with Dee. Now, Dee is with Johnny.”
During the episode, Dee appeared to be unbothered by Will’s behavior. Instead, she was focused on having fun with a Challenge veteran.
Before the season kicked off on July 30, Johnny admitted that he may find himself in a showmance this season.
During an exclusive interview with Us Weekly, Johnny teased what fans can expect from him in season 41.
Deal of the Day
“[Dee] and I vibed right away,” he told Us on July 29. “It is not the first time I met her. We’d met previously at the finale party for season 40, and we kind of hit it off there. Then we have mutual friends. We kind of talked before about working together, and we were there, and then we showed up, and we were both kind of in the single situation.”
