Those Falwells sure do love their pool boys.

Following Jerry Falwell Jr.’s fall from grace over one former pool boy’s less-than-Christian relationship with Jerry’s wife, Becki (while Jerry reportedly watched), another former pool boy has spoken out against him.

Gordon Bello claims to have had a “personal relationship” with Becki Falwell and took the couple to court last year over his stake in the Falwell’s queer-friendly Miami hostel run by the first poolboy, Giancarlo Granda.

Granda and Bello are high school friends who were both working at the Fontainebleau Hotel pool, where they met the Falwells while the couple vacationed in 2012.

Granda made headlines again this week after it was confirmed that he had a six-year affair with Becki, and now Bello is saying there’s even more to the story.

“Giancarlo is not telling the full truth of what happened, I hope he finds the courage to do so,” Bello told the Daily Mail.

The Falwell’s quietly settled their lawsuit with Bello in 2019 for an undisclosed sum.

Despite everything, Becki tells the AP that she and Jerry are “more in love than ever.”

“We have the strongest relationship,” she insists, “and Jerry is the most forgiving person I’ve ever met.”
