Hearts broke for Bachelor In Paradise’s Niranga Amarasinghe when he was brutally rejected by Cassandra Mamone on Wednesday night’s episode of the show.

‘When one particular [person] comes out saying they got a bad edit. It infuriated me,’ the aircraft engineer wrote on Instagram Stories.
‘There were so many more nasty comments to me and other people,’ he raged.
He went on to claim that Cassandra hadn’t apologised for what she’d said, and that he simply can’t tolerate her behaviour.

Niranga had previously refuted Cassandra’s suggestion that she was unfairly edited to look like a villain in recent episodes.

Responding to an Instagram fan, who claimed that Niranga’s rejection was actually Cassandra’s loss, Niranga wrote: ‘Let’s say she looked good in those edits’.

Meanwhile, in his post on Thursday, Niranga also took the time to defend his friend Brittney Weldon – who is currently competing with Cassandra for Jackson Garlick’s affections on the show.
Posing next to Brittney for a smiley selfie, Niranga wrote said of the bubbly 25-year-old: ‘Please be nice to this one. She might be a wild spirit but she has a heart of gold who I have the utmost respect towards.’
Niranga said he feels no animosity towards Brittney – even though she had a meltdown immediately after he invited her for a solo date on the show this week.

‘You’re never getting out of the friend zone. I don’t want to continue in Paradise and pretend to be something we’re not, and have affections for each other when we don’t,’ she said.
‘I think it would be wrong to continue giving friendship roses when now I’m just not seeing any potential at all moving forward,’ she added.
