Jake Pavelka: "I'm Not Gay"

Reality TV star Jake Pavelka appeared on The View and denied rumors that he is gay.

Pavelka, who starred in shows including The Bachelor, discussed his recent breakup with Vienna Girardi, whom he met on the program.

"There was a lack of intimacy because our problems were so heavy," he said Wednesday, according to US magazine. "I can't separate love and intimacy ... and apparently that makes me gay."

Pavelka denied that he is gay when asked directly.
