Jessi Draper Goes On A Date With Another Man On Her 'Roster' -- And He's From Taylor Frankie Paul's Bachelorette Season!

Look away, Marciano Brunette… and Taylor Frankie Paul?! Jessi Draper is out with another man!

If you have been keeping up with The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives star’s love life, you know that she has been cozying up to the Vanderpump Villa star again amid her divorce from Jordan Ngatikaura. They were even locking lips at Hulu‘s Get Real House event on Wednesday. If you have not seen the snapshot Marciano posted, ch-ch-check it out (below):

According to Jessi, nothing serious is going on between her and Marciano. In fact, she does not plan to settle down with any man for a long time. The hairstylists told Entertainment Tonight that they are “just having fun,” and he is one of many on the “roster” right now!

Well, it looks like we’re now finding out who else is on the roster! It looks like Jessi went on a date with Brandon Perce on Friday – just days after kissing Marciano! And you may recognize his name! Why, you ask? He was on Taylor’s cancelled season of The Bachelorette! Ch-ch-check him out (below):

OMG! Let’s give some background here…

Brandon, a 28-year-old loan officer and single dad in South Dakota, made it all the way to the top 9 before Taylor eliminated him. That is according to Reality Steve! We, of course, don’t know officially since ABC has no official plans to release the season at this time! And amid the leading lady’s domestic violence scandal, Brandon decided to shoot his shot with Jessi instead. He posted a video to Instagram right after Jordan filed for divorce in March:

“Alright, so this message is for Jessi from Single Lives of Mormon Wives. Now that you’re single, I have a friend who is interested. He’s a dad. He’s got tattoos, likes to work out. He has a job, doesn’t like to golf. He’s got history with one of your friends. So, Instagram, if you can do what you do and tag her in the comments so she sees this. Let’s make it happen.”

Well, Jessi got the message! She took to the comments section to say, “Hi.” To which he replied:

“@_justjessiiii oh hey there, I think my friend sent you a DM .”

Since then, Jessi has been leaving flirty comments on his Instagram posts. And it looks like things have progressed! They’ve finally taken their flirtationship offline! He posted a video of himself driving with the song Nice for What by Drake playing in the background, along with the words over the top:

“POV: You flirted a little too hard”

Brandon then asked fans to guess where he is going in the caption! We all can guess where, especially since Jessi commented, “.” See the post (below):

OK, DAMN!

You know who else is in Utah? Jessi! And then the final proof they met up? Both Brandon and Jessi later posted similar shots of them enjoying a sushi dinner with another person who looks a lot like them! They even had the same caption! Take a look:

Wow! We wonder how Taylor feels about Jessi going out with one of her former contestants! Unfortunately, she won’t post a reaction right now since she is off social media! But hopefully, Jessi didn’t get herself into more friend drama! She is seemingly still in the doghouse with Miranda McWhorter after kissing her estranged hubby, Chase!

What are your reactions, Perezcious readers? Tell us in the comments!
