It seems that former Bachelor star Arie Luyendyk Jr. is back in the headlines again with his most recent attack on former rival Jef Holm!

Arie waited an entire year to make his jabbing comment to Holm and it definitely received a lot of attention from Bachelor nation. The 37-year-old took to Twitter on January 2nd to call out his former on-screen competitor for a rude comment he made towards Luyendyk on his Bachelor season last year.

The comment Jef made was, “Doesn’t matter who gets out of the limo…I’ll give 5k to the charity of @chrisbharrison’s choice if @ariejr lasts 1 year with anyone.” Exactly one year and one day later Luyendyk responded to Holm with a long-anticipated and highly public dig of his own. “Pay up @jefholm… Put that trust fund money into something positive instead of bottle service. A**hole,” he wrote.

Holm and Luyendyk were rivals on Emily Maynard’s season of The Bachelorette. Holm ended up winning the season, but Maynard and Holm split less than three months after their engagement was revealed. It seems that Bachelor nation has sided with Arie on this Bachelor feud and many piped in to support him. Nick Viall wrote “Arie” with a heart and clapping emoji while Tanner Tolbert commented, “I’m suddenly a big @ariejr fan…”

Whose side are you on with this feud?
