This guy is the biggest asshole. He's bitter about his own "short-comings".
Is it me or does his head look like it has been squashed down so it's wider than a normal persons?
What a total douche...I hope anyone doing business with him drops him after seeing what a lying sack of sht he is! And any girl that dates him has serious self worth issues...ugh creeper.
i think hes sexy
He looks like Dexter. (Michael C . Hall)
this guy is a freakin creep! Your a grown man, so grow up, and grab some BALLS. If your not attracted to ashley, leave the show immediately. F'n creep.
lol, i like who wrote he looks like dexter, lol, i needed a good laugh tonight.
Hated him from the get go... leave! If theres a rumor going around on a certain contestant on the show... believe it. Just look at the past seasons... rumors always ended up true.
Looks like a mix between Dexter and Ashton kutcher!!
You guys! I totally know him. Haha he is so not a jerk. Just so you know, during casting, before Bachelor had even ended, they told him the Bachelorette was Emily. He liked the idea because he has a daughter, too. And just so you know, the network has been calling him since the show aired apologizing to him. And I quote, "the season needed a villain and you were it". They cut and pasted a lot of things. You know the part when he said, "I couldn't give a sht about her"? That was during a previous interview before the show even aired where they asked him if he thought a certain celebrity was cute. Michelle Money is his ex wife's best friend and lets just say his ex isn't the sweetest thing to grace this world.
Give him a break. He tried, but still realized they didn't click. And if you notice, they always say he is there just to promote his business but not once did they even mention what it was!! Poor guy. He is a good dad. He got screwed. And if any of you dont think the network doesn't set things up you're ridiculous. They cue people a lot, stage things, etc.
People thought Ted Bundy was handsome, charming ...Sociopath.
There is nothing REAL about reality TV. Real relationships may result, but I know Bentley is a genuine guy who was staged as a villain in this show.
Fortunately anyone who knows Bentley would know that he's not who he's portrayed to be in this show that's in it for the ratings.
All of us would look bad if our words were cut and pasted out of context.
I hope anyone watching this show isn't naive enough to take everything at face value.
What's especially sad is how people watching the show get all these angry feelings toward someone they don't even know.
If you're one of those people I'm giving you permission to let your resentment of Bentley go and be at peace.
If you need someone to hate find a real villain in your very own neighborhood, but before you make them the target of your resentment make sure you have your facts straight.
As for Bentley-
Nice Guy, awesome Dad, a man who had enough backbone to pull out before any REAL damage was done.
Between Michelle Money and now Bentley....embarrasment to Salt Lake! Sure would like to know what "family fun center" he is promoting...Would like to boycott...
Statistically speaking, one in 25 people has some tendency towards Antisocial Personality Disorder. From my personal experience and clinical practice in psychotherapy, I would be willing to bet that Bentley has those tendencies--he does not experience feelings of empathy like most people, and it has a direct bearing on his relationships--making him a sociopath. Out of 25 candidates, the odds are good.
There is a serious problem with the producers on this show...why is it okay to let the Bachelor know when one of the women are messing around with and employee, but they don't let the Bachelorette know when this jerk is clearly trying to demean this smart, beautiful, caring person? This is getting to the point of a disgusting bias and subjugation of women. This experience is supposed to be empowering and above all show the sincerity of searching for love! They might as well run it with Manswers on Spike if is going to continue this misogynistic trend.
How many people really believe that this "reality" show is accurate? If you really think you can judge someone without even meeting them, then you are the crazy one. Get a life. Obviously he's not that bad of a MAN considering he leaves on his own. He could've stayed if he wanted to.
Sociopaths do not feel empathy, remorse, or guilt as others do. They can be lawyers, bankers, doctors, psychiatrists and "seem" charming, confident, usually very sexual. Not all are serial killers. Many are simply emotionally toxic to others.
this is his company.

It is unfortunate that a boy who has to fill the roll of father is setting a bad example for his daughter. Wow... Time to grow up and get over yourself... News Flash... Bentley isn`t hot enough to play a bad boy... hope your happy... cuz one day... the opinion that matters most to you... she will be old enough to see that you are a true asshole and you hold very little respect for yourself and anyone else around you... Mean, disrespectful and down right rude... not the best father figure by far... nicely done idiot...
He's a disgrace. As if women in America don't have enough trust issues with men. Whether The Bachelorette is a reality show or it's partly scripted or whatever, it is meant to be an entertaining program. It's supposed to be a show about finding a spouse, and it's becoming too much about the drama. Whether Bently is doing this for his own publicity or for the publicity of the show, it is absolutely disgusting. I usually do not allow myself to get drawn into television programs like this, I feel strongly about this. He is making women in America hate him, and he's digging his own grave. He's a psychopath. I don't know Ashley personally, but nobody deserves to get heartbroken, and she seems to be a nice enough person to not deserve such terrible treatments. I'll sum it all up: Bentley Williams is bad news, he's rotten, and he's a disgusting excuse for a potential bachelor, for Ashely or any girl in the United States.
I'm going to laugh if his daughter marries someone like him. He'll be broken hearted and be like "Why the hell would you be with a guy like that?"
Or he'll be ecstatic and not give a crap about it.
I thought the same thing! His head looks like it has been flattened on top! Hes not attractive, so what makes with the ego? Emily would never go for him. What a douche. Ha ha
There's this other guy who's head looks flattened like him google kip knippel images. And it's his lookalike !
http://suzettenicole.blogspot.com/
His ex wife. Pics of them n kid. Weird he is on there still
So Anonymous sez he's not a bad guy......hmmm and his remarks were edited. All of them?? "I'm going to make her cry," "tickle my pickle," "hope my hair looks ok" (when he sez he's goin to make her cry), "I'd rather swim in pee." He has no class and is obviously a real scum bag with no upbringing to speak of. Good thing his wife (who looks like Emily) got rid of him and we can all see why. He gave the show the ammo to make himself look like an ass, he set himself up and the show took advantage of it. He ran with the idea of being an a**hole.
Whoever is anonymously sticking up for this asshole, you're obviously an ignorant asshole yourself. You don't get to say "I'd rather take a swim in piss than made wedding plans with this girl," whether it's staged or not ... and turn around and say, "oh it's cut and past" or "it's stage" Those words all came out of his mouth at the same time and it shows a complete lack of INTEGRITY and self-worth. And it only starts there. You can still be a great dad (if that's even true) and an asshole to women at the same time. There's NO excuse for his behavior. He acts like he's still in Junior high school. The man suffers from extreme Narcissism and Lack of Self-Esteem. I feel sorry for anyone who accidentally falls for his bullshit. Maybe someone could get him to try some self-hypnosis. It works. I hope next week will be the last time we have to look at his despicable face. What a shame! and what a complete waste of a mans body.
Whether or not SOME of the things he says are staged, not all of them are and he still hung around long enough to toy with Ashley's emotions and that is complete bull! Sure, she gave him a chance despite the warnings, but she came on the show to be open and give love another chance without bias. The fact that he took advantage of that is what makes him such a douche! I hope the previews for next week aren't messing with us because this idiot should have been gone the first night! AND why would someone want to play the villain on national television or do anything to allow it to look that way!? It makes no sense unless he wants all the floozies showing up at his door because now they know his is the non-committed type. GREAT example for his daughter and how proud his families MUST be who are watching this air! Say what you want anonymous1, but this guy is a scum ball and since every girl watching this thinks so, you will have a hard time convincing anyone that it is wrong to judge an evident loser and make them believe he is everything he blatantly stated he WASN'T, but maybe you're his current fling so that's where all the justifications come from. Good luck with that and GOOD RIDDANCE Bentley!
he is a total asshole, and the best example of the type of guy that makes me want to puke in my mouth. the arrogance is sickening...
Ashley...you were WARNED about this guy!!!! how can he be the one who you are falling for...you have a dozen other beautiful men to go with and you choose the only one who you have been warned against?? what are you thinking?? he is a scum bag. use your head girl! he hasn't even treated you all that great and your conversations have been totally boring...he doesn't make you laugh or smile the way some others do, why on earth do you even like him??? get rid of that prick!
Bentley is actually the best guy on the show. He is the only one that is being honest. Check out what the Bentley Apologists have to say about it. bentleywilliamsapologists.wordpress.com
I have no clue who this guy is, but I do know we have ALL said things we regret. I am sure he is not happy with his words and as a father of a little girl I hope he is taking a look at himself. The whole thing is this is TV and we have to remember yes some good things come from this but not many. I hate Ashley got her heart hurt, but she did go into this knowing it is reality TV for a reason. Who knows Bentley may really be a great guy and father he just has not found the right person yet!!!!
I won't watch this show after he's gone.
What is the appeal of a narcissistic player who willingly puts down someone on national TV only because he believes she falls short of expectations to salvage his perfect self-image through bagging a trophy wife worthy of his own greatness? Somehow and for whatever reason these chumps never fail to charm and beguile. The time has come for weeding out the Dorian Grays and revealing what's behind the masks.
You know, the people that are posting claiming that they "know" Bentley and saying that he was portrayed inaccurately ... why the hell didn't he be straight up with Ashley the first night? Explain that. It doesn't take too much effort to be straightforward and opt out on the first night, before anyone gets attached. The fact that he didn't do that speaks volumes.
I just thought it was so hilarious watching Bentley, with his eyes so intense, listening to the "masked" bachalor's traumatic story. All the while Bently ends out being the real masked man! Just so ironic. Bently, you really are a piece of work. Your beautiful daughter will be ashamed of you one day. You really should have thought this through beforhand, because carma's a real bitch!
Bentley Williams owns the Airborne Trampoline Arena , now known as the “Tickle My Pickle” center.
I see its the Airborne Trampoline Arena in Draper Utah.
Is this the way Mormon men treat women ?
I don't know why in this day & age they still do.
I feel sorry for his daughter if he treats women this way , jerk needs to be taught a lesson.Maybe his employer will see his real character and tell him to get lost, he is certainly not the type we need on wall street we have enough of them, but none as stupid as this guy to go on T.V.prove it .
Oh please! I work in tv/film production and let me tell you that many of these people are coming in and knowing exactly how to work it to get the most screen time. They give the most compelling or controversial sound bites in their confessionals/one-on-one interviews. They are asked questions about the day, asked to elaborate, often asked about other contestants, etc. Editors don't just cut and paste, splicing wildly without rhyme or reason, at least on most network tv shows. The legal departments are looking over your shoulder to ensure that doesn't happen. If he comes off like an a-hole, it is because that is the footage he gave. Was it an act? Dunno. But that was clearly how he wanted to appear. And frankly, yeah, it's pretty convincing to me!
He looks like an idiot...and despite his cocky demeanor I think deep down he is insecure.
He is probably not a very happy person.
looked on his ex's blog (mentioned above by another poster) they do belong to church LDS, I've only known respectable people of that faith, he seems to go against the message. he definitely has narssicistic personality disorder combined with other personality disorders, it's quite common in men...
One of the women he's sleeping with now intends to bobbitize his dick (or at least do a good amount of damage). Justice will be served.
He's a douchbag!
Bently is awful. I wouldn't want any girl to date this cabbage head.
If Emily had been the bachlorette she would have dumped his wierd ass.
Maybe the guy that had the mask should have given it to bentley. He will need it.. What mother would ever want that asshole to date their daughter!!
He makes me want to throw up!!! Ughhhh!!!
I hope to hell I don't ever bank where he is employed!!
Loser. Makes me sick that someone out thete is that sick to go out of his way to "mess with someones head". Good luck bentley.... America just loves you now. Good luck finding love in your life. No decent girl would ever look twice at you again.
It's about time America got a good look into the heart of a "Modern Mormon Man". Misogyny is alive and well in LDS culture. Many Mormon men simply adopt a shiny, fake veneer to seem like they're actually living in this century.
Republicans!! Don't get sucked in by Mitt Romney. He's got the same crocodile smile.
Mormon men aren't like this. At least none that I know, and I know a lot of Mormons. I'm sure there was lots of editing, but no way was it all edited. This guy's parents must be super proud.
Stay classy, Bentley. Ugh.
Can you say "scripted?" Do you really think the show would allow a guy as smarmy as this stay on without warning Ashley?? What a hoot! This is sooooo set up!!
I feel so bad for his daughter. What a poor little thing to be raised by such a horrible little man with no soul - no compassion for others. She will grow up being embarrassed by her father. What a small small poor excuse for a human being.
Bentley is hot and oh, so smooth. He is the ultimate player and manipulator. Did you see the way he held and hugged Ashley? It appeared to be sincere I would have believed it myself. I think any woman would have fallen for him. He is a selfish jerk just like my friend Alan. I'm sick of these types of men!
To those defending Bentley - are you not the least bit disappointed in your friends behaviour?? You must admit that the things he said were horrible regardless of when or where he said them i.e. ugly duckling, tickle my pickle and the way he mocked the other men calling them idiots for believing his story about leaving. What kind of father/business man makes these type of comments especially in front of a tv camera?? You claim that things were cut and pasted but he obviously gave them everything they needed from the moment he opened his mouth.
Just from a practical point-of-view, no one should want to give him business of any kind. I have a feeling this will deeply impact his income.
He has proven himself unreliable, unpredictable, and a bit unintelligent (not the most extensive vocabulary in his lexicon).
His gaze and behavior has the markings of a sociopath. I certainly wouldn't trust him with my money/investments.
What a douche. You could tell by not only what he said, but how he said those mean things about Ashley (and how he always looked away, looked to the left and couldn't look her in the eye) that he was being deceptive.
I don't see why people are getting pissed. He didn't like her and she's not his fucking type!!! AND on top of that, he didn't even do anything to make her fall in love..he didn't say anything to make her fall in love..and she just fell in love for no fucking reason, like most stupid bitches do. She didn't even go on a one on one date with him and she still fell in love because he kissed her by the fire place?? soo stupid!
And he had to courtesy to leave the show rather than staying all the way to the end. He's a fucking gentleman. I surprised he stuck around that annoyance for that long. People act like they have never said bad things about people they don't fucking like...who cares!! He doesn't fucking want her!!
And plus, I think she has some mental issues, cause How the fuck do you fall in love with someone after 1 week and 3 days...someone you didn't even date?? That's like going to a club, making out with some guy you semi chatted with and then being seriously heart broken cause he didn't want you after all. He didn't even sleep with her and she's crying like a psycho.
I love Bently!!! he did right thing by leaving the stupid show. Ashley is so fake, and delusional..i don't see how she would make a good wife anyways.
She'll prolly end up with J.P and Constantine. At least J.P can go visit her at UPenn since he lives in New York..its closer. So it still works out for the bubbly one.
I wish all the best to Bently and his daughter!!
the saddest thing is the guy who's now in a relationship with ashley ..realizing he's second choice...and that she would have ended up with bentley
I do know Bentley, and even if staged this show could not portray the extent of his manipulative twisted character. He fooled his ex-wife and family for a long time with his charm and guile, and put her through HELL. For those poor women defending him, please run fast and far. He is bad news, and very scary behind that handsome mask.
Good riddance to garbage.
Ok here's the deal...Bentley is seriously a big jerk who cares nothing for others feelings. He is a mormon but obviously hasn't learned anything from going to church and probably shouldn't represent himself as one. I can't believe how he can lie to Ashley, knowing everyone knows he is..and is proud of it. What's more frustrating than watching Bentley make a fool of himself is watching Ashley..totally liked her but she has zero confidence. Begging guys to stay, falling in love for a guy (after what? a week) who obviously doesn't really like her back and then giving that other jerk a rose after he insulted her shows she is uber insecure. The whole thing is a complete total mess. And please..to the Bachelor Producers..don't choose anyone from Salt Lake! Michelle and Bentley are an embarrasment to Salt Lake and knowing and having had encounters with Michelle..she's calling the kettle black..she's as big of a mess than Bentley in terms of values and morals...I know they come off as confident but confident people don't act the way they do..insecure people do.
Seriously, there are two major issues here: 1. Bentley is a jerk and wants to make a name for himself; 2. Ashley has some issues - extremely insecure and lacks self-esteem to name a few - BAD combination! I am in awe that the producers let Bentley make such rude, disrespectful and risque comments and not allow Ashley to hear/see Bentley's posts. It is also sad that the show let such an insecure woman be the bachelorette. I guess it is all in the name of entertainment.
Besides his inappropriate comments to the camera he did the right thing. He went on the show, realized that he wasn't attracted to her and left.
What I find amazing is that people seem to assume that all 25 contectants are going to fall in love with the Bachelor or Bachelorette.
That just doesn't happen, but almost all of them pretend to so that they can make some money out of it.
Who is worse?
I dont think he's an evil person or anything. He's no different than a lot of young good looking men. The difference is that while most guys make these comments to their buddies... Bentley said these derogatory comments on national television.
I'm sure in 15 years from now, Bentley would take a shot gun to any pixie dick douche bag who made the same remarks about his daughter, Cozy, that he made about Ashley.
Ashley was blinded by Bentley's good looks and charm. Shame on her.
I'm team William!
what kind of guy gets his recessed nads off on watching a girl cry? what a complete dick
He is back in the show for more, watch later episodes.
He is obviously not a Mormon, because a Mormon wouldn't or shouldn't talk or act that way. His language and actions are hideous. Very two faced, how can you lie to a girl, hug her, let her cry on your shoulder and then say such horrible things about her afterwards. He said he wanted to get out of there as soon as possible but yet he was the one who prolonged the departure. All he had to say was that I don't feel like I have as strong as feeling for you as you do for me and that would have ended it. I think it definitely would have been easier for her to take, instead he meant to string her along. I feel bad for his daughter. He's an awful example. By the way, to the person who stood up for him, there is no way that a film industry could edit his conversations and make him sound that badly. He said some disgusting, rude, unexceptable things. He has a filthy mind and mouth. He and Michelle really give Salt Lake City and Utah a bad name.
I just have one word...Karma!
Ashley is the biggest airhead on the planet..She is not ready to be in a relationship.
Bentley is my Hero!!!
Bentley does not deserve to humiliate a woman/any women. He also has no rights to judge someone's appearances. If that's his main concerns - he's better off married to a wax figure of Emily than the real one. Cause he doesn't deserve any women after the show except sluts/gold-diggers.
Creep! Obviously he has shown his true colors... Any girl in their right mind should RUN!!!!
I feel sorry for his daughter....
This guy is so stupid.. i think he should just go die in a hole. like really .. he is just going to say mean stuff when he is not around her but when she is around he is going to act like he loves her. i hate him.. when he said that stuff about there first kiss i thought he was really stupid she could i have just said i dont want to kiss u and then he would have had no kiss to talk about.. i hate bently. i read in a magnise he goes to hong kong to meet them and then just goes to vistit hong kong for free. what a total jerk.
Although there are exceptions, I am not surprised Bentley is a fellow BYU grad. So many "men" there are arrogant and immature.
I have mixed feelings about this guy! Mormon or not Mormon, people don't always practice what they believe unfortunately... how many Catholics take the Lord's name in vain when that's one of the 10 commandments, or other Christians do things against their own beliefs. Unfortunately every religion or belief has those people and that says nothing about their respective religion but about them personally, so let's take that out of the discussion all together.
I don't know what was "staged" or egged on by the producers or what was real and sincere. At some points I thought he's too prideful to share a girl with others and wasn't confident enough to compete so he tried his best to impress her but then act like he didn't care to everyone that would be watching on TV in case he got dropped.
Then at other times I thought he was a complete and utter douche who shouldn't have said some of those things under any circumstances out of respect to women.
At the end of the day we all find it entertaining and hopefully poor Ashley has a lot of happiness coming after all the humiliation and heartache.
I think bentley is SOOOOO hot!!!!!
Bentley your a dick and i bet thats why your not interested in ashley cause you like to suck dick
and anyone who acts like that must have a small dick
i think bentley is on here writing good things about himself or his ex wife ah
i think "bent over" dug a hole for himself for the rest of his life, his ex wife, his daughter. Sucks that every-time they google their name, they well reminded about how big of a dick he is, or was perceived as.
ASS!
He said what he said. He knew that he was being recorded for a reality show.
He came across as a jackass and now he and his family have to live with this for a lifetime. What an idiot but he is not as dumb as the bachelorette.
Let's remember that Michelle Money is a Mormon to so do not blame it on Mormon men. It goes both ways. They chose these Mormons because of ratings. Most other Mormons would have been considered boring for ratings.
I don't want to say a whole lot about Bently, b/C I have nothing nice to say. I miss the early episodes like Trista's season were there were lots of great guys and you looked forward to the romance and drama of her having to pick just one. That's why I watch. This season is renamed the Bently show, instead of the Bachelorette. I'm not hooked at all, and I should have been long before now. I have to switch gears and say that I am shocked people are dissing Michelle Money. She did nothing close to what Bently has continued to do. Can we take Bently back to preschool? Dipping from other people's bucket's won't fill your bucket. I said bucket, not jugs Bently. Try to focus on something beyond sex for even 5 seconds. Michelle was funny and dramatic. I was never upset by what she said. I think she was made out to be mean by at least one other woman on The Women Tell All show and I wasn't impressed by how that woman spoke to Michelle.
This guys father is the biggest slimeball attorney known. He bilked millions of fellow Mormons in Florida in a ponzi scheme then took more money saying he was going to represent them in getting the money back. It appears that the apple doesn't fall to far from the tree. Anybody doing business with either of them needs to run!!!
I didn't really follow this season's but I did saw some parts of some episodes. The more I saw this Bentley, the way he talks .. he reminds me of Ashton kutcher. But his head or face is wider. They have similar smiles and the way he talks, he even sounds kinda like Ashton. The person that wrote that he knows this guy, well, if he's that NICE, he should just quit right after he knows the girl isn't the Emily girl he likes or want to meet. Instead of just going on with this game. He's a total JERK.
I feel sorry for his daughter having such a shithead for a dad.
