Keep reading to see his statement.

‘Bringing Up Bates‘: Bates Family Members Still Upset?

Katie has been documenting her life in Florida with Travis and their kids. The married couple is currently renting in Florida, and Bringing Up Bates fans are starting to speculate that they’re planning to stay there for good. Katie has also uploaded numerous photos with Travis over the past few weeks. One was a sweet photo of them at the beach. But what caught many people’s attention was how almost nobody, aside from Zach and Alyssa, liked Katie’s post, which is an unusual sight to see. What makes things more suspicious is how Katie’s siblings like her newer posts without Travis, fueling rumors that members of the Bates family still dislike him for cheating. But before the cheating drama blew up, Travis was already making odd statements online.

Travis Responds Publicly To Kelly Jo For The First Time Since Cheating

Some Bringing Up Bates fans on social media discussed Travis’ response to Kelly Jo, who congratulated him and Katie for their fourth wedding anniversary. Kelly Jo’s post was made during the time when Travis was believed to be cheating in nursing school. He told Kelly Jo, “Thanks Momma B! you raised an amazing women :).” Instead of saying “woman,” Travis mistakenly says “women.” A commenter corrected him, and he thanked the person for pointing it out. But some fans think Travis intentionally put “women” in his post. Others even think it’s a sign that Travis is a sociopath.

• “Well… he was with two women at the time.”
• “My guess is he was just doing that so everything seemed ‘normal’ and nobody would suspect what was going on. If he didn’t comment or acted weird then that’s much more suspicious on his part.”
• “I said once before that he probably DOES think Katie is great and an ‘amazing women’. She seems like a super sweet, caring person. That doesn’t mean he loves her romantically though. You could say that about a friend or your sister. So technically he’s probably not lying with this comment!”
• “How on Earth can a mother praise someone who publicly humiliated her daughter. If only he had kept it private, no one would have been any wiser. He’d be dead to me.”
• “This was from early December so I don’t know how much was known at that point. Still he knew what he was doing!”
