Well, another shoe has dropped in the truly never-ending Jerry Falwell Jr. pool boy x-rated photos scandal.
In a lengthy statement published by the Washington Examiner over the weekend, Falwell came clean about his wife Becki’s “improper relationship” with their pool boy, Giancarlo Granda.
“Becki had an inappropriate personal relationship with this person, something in which I was not involved–it was nonetheless very upsetting to learn about,” Falwell wrote.
He then accused Granda of blackmail and trying to ruin his family’s life.
How about we take this to the next level?

Now, in an interview with Reuters, Granda is pushing back against these claims.
He says that not only did Jerry know about the relationship, but he was an active participant in it, and Granda has text messages and FaceTime screenshots to prove it.
He tells Reuters that that he first met the Falwells when he was 20 years old and that their relationship involved him having sex with Becki while Jerry watched.
“Becki and I developed an intimate relationship and Jerry enjoyed watching from the corner of the room,” Granda, now 29, alleges, adding that they did this “multiple times per year” in hotel rooms in Miami and New York, as well as at the Falwells’ house in Virginia.
Reuters reports:
The material Granda showed Reuters includes screenshots from what Granda said was a FaceTime conversation he had with the Falwells in 2019. During that call, Granda said, Becki was naked as the two discussed their relationship while Jerry peeked from behind a door. Reuters was able to verify Granda’s description of the screenshots.
Granda also shared an audio recording that he says captures a conversation he had with the Falwells in 2018. In it, Becki complained about Granda describing his relationships with other people: “He’s like telling me every time he hooks up with people. Like I don’t have feelings or something.” Jerry then chimed in: “You’re going to make her jealous.” “I’m not trying to do that,” Granda replied.
Other texts obtained by Reuters show one from 2012 in which Becki wrote to Granda, “Right now I am just missing you like crazy …. Have you had this effect on all of your lady friends?”

The relationship soured after Granda told the Falwells he didn’t want to sleep with Becki anymore, which resulted in a business disagreement.
In a text sent last June, Granda expresses frustration with the Falwells, writing: “Since you’re okay with ruining my life, I am going to take the kamikaze route. It really is a shame because I wanted to reach a peaceful resolution and just move on with our lives but if conflict is what you want, then so be it.”
To which, Jerry responds: “You should by now understand that I will not be extorted. I have always treated you fairly and been restrained in response to your threats because I did not wish to ruin your life. Going forward, stop contacting me and my family.”
Reports Reuters:
Granda said that while he entered into the sexual relationship with the Falwells willingly, today he feels the couple preyed upon him. “Whether it was immaturity, naïveté, instability, or a combination thereof, it was this ‘mindset’ that the Falwells likely detected in deciding that I was the ideal target for their sexual escapades,” Granda said.
Earlier this month, Falwell was placed on “an indefinite leave of absence” as the president of Liberty University after he posted a picture of himself with a woman who is not Becki, both with their pants undone, partying on a yacht.
Shortly after that, video taken at the boat party leaked online.
Two days before publishing his statement in the Washington Examiner, Liberty University’s board announced that a decision “whether or not to retain Falwell as President has not yet been made” and said it was requesting “prayer and patience” as they consulted with God on whether Falwell should be allowed back at the university.

So was that Florida youth hostel that Jerry Falwell Jr. and Becki Farwell allegedly helped Giancarlo Granda purchase a payoff to keep him silent?

Don’t throw people under the bus Jerry, because they may have proof. LOL

EXCUSE ME!!!????………..It took his lawyers how many months to come up with this BS story????? What a CROCK! Total LIES!!! People ARE NOT stupid and they may hear this BS but trust me, we all know the truth. It was HIM and the Pool Boy. I don’t care what coverup story they come up with. I hope he fades away just like Anita Bryant did back in the late 70s.
dinard38
LOL. Yeah, I’m calling BS too. Jerry the Freak participated. No way he just watched from some corner of the room.
Pool Boy probably has proof of that as well, but he’s either holding on to that revelation to extort more money from the Falwells or holding on to drop another shoe if the Falwells keep lying about him.
Messy!

The thing that upsets me most is the pool boy didn’t look like Jesse Metcalf or Nicholas Gonzalez. Instead, they get this sorta oaf-y guy with lots of big moles on his face. I mean, if you’re going to have an affair, especially one that could go public, it seems you’d go for top of the line. Not someone who has speed bumps all over their face.
Toofie
Oh please, the guy is definitely cute.
Beachman
These criminals know their audience, and how stupid they are. What idiot would possibly believe this story? Falwell wants us to believe that they are the victim’s? LOL….what was he doing while this guy was supposedly banging his wife? And he makes her take the fall for him….and she does! She must be getting something out of this to do that. Can you imagine what evidence this queen has on them? Another pee tape? You can’t make this stuff up with these Republican ‘men’….
Jussie_Racist_Clown
@Bengali. It’s not about the kids face. I suspect he’s got some donkey parts down below that both Falwell’s enjoyed swinging on.

So their sex romps resulted in a business disagreement huh? This just gets weirder and weirder.

God being consulted has spoken verily and thusly: kick that crazy Fowlwell mutherflocker outta Liberty University pronto.

Hypocrites holier-than-thou FAKE ‘Christians’…
lord.krath
The irony of it all is really that it’s the fake-Christians (like this hypocrite of an ass) that is leading the decline of Christianity, not homosexuals, not single mothers, not interracial marriages, etc. These folk are a cancer not just to faith, but also society; time immemorial trying to hide in plain sight while they point the finger at others and try to deny them what they horde for themselves unashamedly.

I love how he throws his wife under the bus. He had nothing to do with it. I’m glad the pool boy expose him for the piece of sh-t he is.
Goforit
So let’s see. You have a horny, neglected, middle aged wife of a self proclaimed “Christian”. Hubby likes hiding in corners and behind doors while watching his wife get fu#ked by a hunky 20 year old whore with larceny on his mind. (no offence to sex workers) What could possibly go wrong? Make some popcorn and settle in. This is going to be fun to watch.
GlobeTrotter
I actually have a different take on this. I applaud the Falwells for exploring their sexuality and wish everyone had the same freedom to do the same. No one should be shamed for receiving sexual pleasure from or giving sexual pleasure to another person or persons. As a matter of fact, there’d be a lot less war, hatred and conflict if we would simply have more sex with each another.
That being said, it was hypocritical for the Falwells to secretly fulfill their own sexual desires while openly condemning others for doing the same.
ryanM
It may worse than mere hypocrisy. There’s still some question about where the money came from. He might have used the university’s money to pay off the poolboy.
EddieB
Applaud? If they were an ordinary couple exploring their sexuality and the boundaries of their marriage, of course. But this is the Moral Majority, Liberty University and the Liberty Counsel among other things. These are not your average, private, God-fearing Christians. I don’t applaud them I abhor them.
AHappyMom
ChrisK,
I know what you mean. My son’s girlfriend recently said that she likes sucking a used tampon when she pleasures herself. Go figure teens these days, right? Our generation ate asparagus without mustard, if you can believe that. So judge not, right? It does look amazing and decadent. I’m curious as to what type of butter you use. Is it an imported organic artisan butter made with some exotic animal milk? I ask because you wrote that its cost is $75. Is it easily available? If not, where do I buy it? Would using ordinary butter ruin the recipe? The most expensive butter I have is $20 truffle butter but the truffles would be wasted on this recipe since it will be overwhelmed by the spices. Like I said, it’s a generational thing.
expressionlessanger
Hah, that’s so true. When I was in high school, my parents punished me for failing the driving test by making me wear my sister’s underwear for a week. In soccer practice, word leaked out and I became the cause celebre. Even got to pose in the underwear for my town’s newspaper, and my parents became celebrities. It was such a great era. These days. even making a reservation is nearly impossible unless you give your name! I mean, I understand why we shouldn’t go home in shame but is a name change really necessary? It’s a whole new confusing generation.
cutemikey
zer, I’d like to remind you that Judy Garland died a long time ago so that was a tad disrespectful. Yes, she had a one octave voice and no discernible talent. And she had an orangutan face. But it was a different time, and men really didn’t shave their bodies until a few years ago. Even now, I prefer to wax my balls instead of shaving them.
scotshot
Congratulations to relate that your son’s girlfriend sucks on used tampons when she masturbates. Are the tampons fresh or aged and then topped with a sauce incorporating mustard and Truffle butter?
If your post is snark say so, if not please just go away.
ShiningSex
I bet Jerry licked some balls when his wife was getting banged. Poolboy screams GAY!!!
jimbeaux1001
Now it’s time for JFJ’s personal trainer and multi-million $, 18 acre fitness facility partner – 23 year old Ben Crosswhite to come clean too. Buckle up…it’s gonna be a bumpy ride.
Beachman
I was thinking the same thing….there are more shoes to fall with this story…
cuteguy
Yet another example of a religious zealot hypocrite. Religion segregates people. I will always be spiritual and believe in God. But these religions are nothing but cults who extract money from idiots who believe anything they are told and then the cult leaders use that money for their lavish lifestyles. I pray for these simpletons who don’t use free will to actually and think for themselves. Enjoy the kool aid
innocentgay
So Jr’s a cuck.
I am shocked to my very core.
You realize this means he’s literally getting off to this, right?
WSnyder
Falwell has resigned.
Nobody should think this is the end of it. Liberty University now will have to fight for it’s credibility as there will be lawsuits from students, Trustees and Donors as to the finances of the school and how they were spent. Falwell and family seemed to have been using the school’s money like a personal piggy bank, so all these ‘Investments’ into properties and ‘business ventures’ with these hunky ‘business partners’ will be raising a lot of eyebrows. Won’t be long before State Attorneys General have investigations into the school along with the Falwells themselves [if not already ongoing].
Almost 50 years after Deep Throat, between Trump’s ongoing controversial hush money pay-offs, fake ‘charities’, quasi-legal business dealings, questionable loan applications, tax returns, possibly altered financial disclosures and now the fall of Jerry Falwell Jr., it’s still ‘follow the money’.
Chrisk
Trumps legal advisor and long term friend Micheal Cohen played a big part in the Fallwell blackmail. He had the pictures. No doubt played a part in Fallwells support of Donnie.
RevJames
This is hilarious because of how MAGA Ass Hat Conservative Evangelicals call liberal men “Beta” and Cuck’s-referring to “weak men who need someone else to satisfy their wives and then can only watch while it happens in a willing humiliation of their virility.”
barryaksarben
BUT that does not explain the loan the personal trainer got. A different guy, another guy. The first guy only got his balls and taint licked by Jer and Id bet the second guy probably got the whole oil and lube.
My2CentsWorth
I suspect that you are correct.
If Jerry Falwell, Jr did the decent thing he would publically confess and admit just what he has been doing. He would dedicate his life to speaking out against what he and his kind have done.
The likely outcome from this is that his wife will not wake up and divorce him for putting the blame on here. He will become a preacher, start a mega church and maybe even end up doing as well financially as Peter Popoff.
