Aria from The Ultimatum slams Scotty and says she had to beg him to go to couples’ therapy
She said The Ultimatum was a ‘wake up call’ for him
Aria from The Ultimatum season three slammed Scotty on The Viall Files podcast and made some crucifying claims about him and couples’ therapy after their time on the show. Aria and Scotty originally got engaged during the finale but soon revealed at the reunion that they had split up just a day later. With Aria ending the engagement, she revealed her side of things, including what her breaking point was.
“Scotty is such a beautiful individual when he’s not, like, triggered, and how I would say ‘triggered’ would be if anything comes up with insecurity,” she began.
Aria spoke about, “He was watching everything I did because he was feeling insecure, he might never admit that but he was feeling insecure because he felt like there was some type of connection that was with Caleb.”
She explained how Scotty allegedly confronted her about how she wasn’t “all over” him at the mixer “like Nick and Sandy were,” and she thinks it made him feel insecure about her “connection with Caleb.”
However she told him at the time that her “love language” just wasn’t like that. “I’m not going to sit on your lap. I don’t do that in front of people.”
“I was holding his hand during that time, but [the argument] was coming up and I just feel like because he’s hurt, he tries to hurt me with his words,” she explained.
She said he had a lot of “baggage from previous relationships” and her saying “I’m here and I love you” wasn’t enough for him because he was dealing with his own “internal battles.”
Aria also said she thought the show was “a wake-up call for him” and told Nick Viall she “didn’t want to be there” in the first place.

“I honestly think I went on the show to show how committed I was to him because I didn’t want to be there, and it’s not that he forced me to be there, but it was definitely something where I was like, ‘okay, he’s showing me that he wants to commit.’ I feel like something we lacked in our relationship was reassurance and our relationship wasn’t really the healthiest.”
She said she wanted to use the experience to “show him that I’m a loyal girlfriend, I was committed [to the experiment] in the way of wanting to learn how to be a better partner.”
Aria expressed how she was “tired of fighting” and felt “exhausted” by the relationship. “There was such a disconnect and I think the last straw for me was that I had to beg him to go to couples’ therapy. I was like, you know there’s an issue, why am I begging you to do anything?”
