After putting the season 4 cast of Love Is Blind<\/a><\/em> in the hot seat, Vanessa Lachey<\/strong><\/a> has found herself under fire.<\/p>\n Paul Peden<\/strong><\/a> revealed on Monday, April 17, that the 42-year-old host sent him flowers following their heated exchange about his split from Micah Lussier<\/strong><\/a> on the reunion stage<\/a>.<\/p>\n \u201cThanks for acknowledging the accidental misleading @vanessalachey,\u201d the 29-year-old reality star wrote via Instagram Stories alongside a snap of the bouquet.<\/p>\n Paul previously went off on Vanessa \u2014 who cohosted the Sunday, April 16, reunion with husband Nick Lachey<\/a><\/strong> \u2014 during an interview with Entertainment Tonight<\/em><\/a> after he felt she took Micah\u2019s side when pressing the former couple about why they didn\u2019t wed<\/a>.<\/p>\n \u201cI was like, \u2018F\u2014k man.\u2019 They kept drilling, drilling it down on me,\u201d Paul told the outlet on Sunday. \u201cI think I said my piece. I think Vanessa might have had a little bit of personal bias in that scenario or at least I kind of detected that. I don\u2019t know. But that\u2019s just my assumption based on how she continued to drill into it after I gave my full rationale for why I felt the way that I did.\u201d<\/p>\n Netflix viewers who tuned into the reunion \u2014 after technical difficulties prevented many fans from not being able to watch live<\/a> on Sunday \u2014 saw Micah, 27, get emotional when Vanessa asked a question about Paul\u2019s remarks that he didn\u2019t see his then-fianc\u00e9e as the mother of his children.<\/p>\n \u201cI think it was extremely reductive in the way that they dismissed all nuance and complexity in why I said no,\u201d he told ET<\/em>. \u201cIt was framed as, the reason that I said no was that she wasn\u2019t able to fill a mothering role and a nurturing atmosphere and whatever. That was one piece of the puzzle. It was incredibly complex, but that was the answer. That was the reason why. And that\u2019s just a fraction of the story.\u201d<\/p>\n During an interview with People<\/a><\/em>, Paul compared his reunion experience to an \u201cinterrogation.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cI thought that I detected a little bit of personal bias there. I\u2019m not sure what it was And I guess she\u2019s within her right to drill on personal bias, but she shouldn\u2019t present as being an objective neutral party if that\u2019s the case,\u201d the scientist said. \u201cBut I think it\u2019s fair to continue follow up questions. But if we\u2019re going to go that route, we need to be able to have a full length conversation.\u201d<\/p>\n As social media users continue to express their feelings about the reunion, Vanessa has disabled commenting on her most recent Instagram post about the special.<\/p>\n \u201cWe all know *exactly* what Paul meant when he said Micah wouldn\u2019t make a good mom. Vanessa Lachey is making drama out of nothing. #LoveIsBlindReunion,\u201d one person tweeted<\/a>.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n Another user wrote<\/a>, \u201cThe fact that Zack had to interject and defend Paul during the reunion, bc Vanessa Lachey was too busy grilling him instead of Micah is INSANE. You can tell she was pissed by that. #LoveIsBlind #LOVEISBLINDreunion.\u201d<\/p>\n A third viewer tweeted<\/a>, \u201cAre Vanessa and Micah personal friends?? Why is she so set on giving space for Micah to play the victim and hold Paul to the fire like this?\u201d<\/p>\n A fourth fan questioned if the actress only sided with the female cast members, pondering if she had \u201chidden beef\u201d with Paul, Zack Goytowski<\/strong><\/a> and Marshall Glaze<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n Other fans, however, praised Vanessa\u2019s skills.<\/p>\n \u201cUnder the circumstances, I think Vanessa & Nick did a good job hosting tonight. Some of these tweets are so cruel. Be kind people!\u201d a fan wrote<\/a>.<\/p>\n \u201cShiii, I personally think they did a good job and tried their best to [hold] those folks accountable,\u201d another fan tweeted<\/a>. \u201cNot their fault if the answers weren\u2019t what WE wanted to hear. Some of you are a bunch of haters\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n![\"Vanessa](\"https:\/\/www.usmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Vanessa-Lachey-Reacts-to-Paul-Accusing-Her-of-Bias-at-Heated-LiB-Reunion-3.jpg?w=700&quality=86&strip=all\")
