As far as I know CT hasn't had any contact with Diem since the show ended outside of the filming of the reunion & bonus footage show. They are not in contact at all, but CT can actually be cool with her & talk to her now and vice versa if they're ever around each other in the future...the bad blood from their breakup isn't there anymore like it was prior to filming the show and that's about the extent of their current relationship...similar to how things left off with Adam on Rivals. They're not talking to each other or getting in touch to hang out but if the situation arises, they'd be fine together.
This was said during the reunion. It was also said during CT's interview with Afterbuzz Tv, but I think people are concerned about what was said in the OK! magazine interview with Diem because that was released last. The interview with Afterbuzz took place on the day of the season finale. The reunion was filmed before this interview and before the release of the magazine. It seems as if the magazine article came last, and if was released last, people are speculating that Diem and CT are still talking because of what she said in the interview. Which could or could not be what she actually said.
Diem also mentioned in an interview with Camila that she showed CT messages that his parents sent her on Facebook. Of course with online articles, you never know, but that interview also took place later on.
Obviously the fact that they are potentially talking again is a big deal for people who want them to get back together. I don't know why that's surprising to anyone here.
I agree that if CT and Diem were faking all of the stuff that was shown for the sole purpose of pleasing MTV, they are great actors because it looked genuine. The whole situation re: whether they hooked up or not seemed off, but it definitely seemed sketchy after someone pointed out to me the club kiss that was shown in a promo but never in an episode. I definitely think something happened between them at some point, but I doubt it'll ever get out.
And one more thing: didn't Diem say "It's like, 'Why don't you want to get back together with me?'" when she was talking to Paula and Rachel? The subtitles said "he's" but it sounded like she said "it's."
I guess what some people are trying to say is that the article that featured Diem in OK! Magazine was not a big deal because magazine articles can be sketchy. The article only said that they were talking and honestly that is so broad that it could mean anything. She could have meant that herself and CT are on a "HI, Bye" basis when it comes to talking. I feel like this is what many articles are meant to do; cause people to interpret the specific details themselves.
I find it hard to believe that they are friends though. They seemed so awkward with each other at the reunion.
[COLOR=black][FONT=Verdana][QUOTE=Imjustsayin;302792] I also thought it was strange that Rachel said that her and[B] Mark were in very serious relationships while filming the show and they were very careful of every move.[/B] People were obviously aware that CT had a girlfriend. But his relationship was not cast in the same light as Rachel or Mark's. In other words, I don't know how serious his relationship was at the time. I mean it's weird that he would ask his ex girlfriend why she didnt want to get back with him while he has a girlfriend at home. [/QUOTE][/FONT][/COLOR]
[COLOR=black][FONT=Verdana]Mark is single again so judging the seriousness of a relationship based on what you see on tv or even on social networks (how could anyone miss Mark and his ex’s nauseating tweets to each other???) is a futile exercise.[/FONT][/COLOR]
[COLOR=black][FONT=Verdana]To me, it all goes back to CT’s smoke and mirrors comment. I always thought that the reason why he got mad at Cara Maria for telling Diem he had a girlfriend even though it was “public knowledge” was that he had an agreement with production to keep Diem in the dark to further the love story edit. Everything he allegedly whispered to Diem or blurted out on the reunion might have been directed by production. It’s possible since Wes mentioned on his facebook that he and CT get paid more to work with production.[/FONT][/COLOR]
[COLOR=black][FONT=Verdana]Did Diem have the same agreement? It’s hard to tell because she is all over the place in her interviews and so conscious of people’s opinion of her that she adjusts her social networks based on posts here, even Cara Maria’s post about her breaking up with her boyfriend before the challenge got deleted. I feel that she says and does things to appease people in her circle.[/FONT][/COLOR]

[COLOR=black][FONT=Verdana]Interesting catch and quite possible given the amount frankenbiting this season. If CT didn’t really say that, then it supports his indifference towards her which I think is genuine and not just to appease his girlfriend or cover up his hurt ego. CT is one of the most private cast members. I think the rare interviews he gives are favors and not for him to make a personal statement, promote himself and the show. The afterbuzz interview I think came as a result from what seems to be a friendship with Kevin Undergaro.[/FONT][/COLOR]
[QUOTE=V1man;302150]Yes, there is something better. Patience please.[/QUOTE]
Do you have any idea of when you plan to share this?
I don't doubt Diem's reasoning/regret for missing the funeral, but most of the people here continue to hold it against her, so it'll be interesting to see if your revalation clears the air at all.

Yes, we have a plan. Diem has agreed to an interview with vevmo.
BTW, how do you know that "most of the people here continue to hold it against her?" My experience with this site going almost all the way back to its birth, is that people of a negative persuasion tend to express their views loudly, while those of the opposite view tend to be silent.

I guess that was a bold statement. From the CT/Diem discussions that I've read over the last few weeks, it [i]appears[/i] that the majority of people engaging in them see Diem in a negative light and her missing the funeral (as well as her "not good enough" reasoning for doing so) continues to come up. That's all I was saying. I'd be more than happy to know that more people here don't feel that way.
Thanks for responding re: the interview. Looking forward to it.
I can't wait for that interview.
I personally find it interesting that people think CT could have been acting on the show. I saw the 'almost' kiss in the promo from ep 6, and I don't believe they were acting.
I think he told Cara Maria about his gf, and didn't tell Diem because he wanted to see where things might go. Honestly, everyone in the cast said they saw the spark there, just like the rest of us. I'm sure given their history, it is hard for either of them to forget what they had, and being in that situation would make them have to deal with that. It is unfortunate that it appears too much has happened for them to resume a relationship.
I think they seemed awkward on the reunion b/c they supposedly are both with other people, and the more that came out, the more likely their relationships would be in jeopardy. The cast seemed to be protecting them from questions, maybe since they are the only ones with serious history.

Unfortunate for who? If both Diem and CT are happy in their current relationships, I don't see it being unfortunate for either of them.
Wait, what? I thought that CT was in a relationship, not Diem. I thought that Diem broke up qith her boyfriend before she went on the show. And I don't know if they got back together but I think Diem was the one it may have been unfortunate for. CT looks like he has moved on. I mean he seems like he is happy where he is at. I feel like Diem may have wanted to see where things would go because she still has feelings and its obvious CT is harder to read. But if he was playing around with her, that's a little messed up.

Yeah!!! Can't wait for the interview!
I love the fact that she donated all of her prize money to her charity. I hope that discussing her progress on that project will be a focus of the interview!

MedGift questions certainly are an intended part of the interview.

Ah, I truly can't wait for this! Her dedication to MedGift is an inspiration. I'm excited to hear what she has to say.

Diem was in Nashville for the past few days promoting MedGift. (she just left). She met with two CEOs who together control over 300 hospitals. Charity first, then interview questions...

Unfortunate just because of how lovely their initial story was. When I hear stories like that, I always hope people can make their way back to each other.
Also, I was unsure of Diem's relationship status. I saw in the reunion thread that her and CT were supposedly both in serious relationships, but on here I also say that Cara Maria said she had split with her man prior to exes. I do maintain that they showed some serious chemistry, and conflicted feelings on the show. I don't know how comfortable I would be with that if I was dating them!
Like I said before, I think it's unfortunate for Diem. I think she told CT let's revisit this in 5 years and actually believed he would have the same feelings and want to try again. And it didn't work out that way. They did seem to have a lot of chemistry though but then again this is tv. And if what I am hearing about CT working with the producers for money is true, then its all just for show anyway.
A few random thoughts/questions:
Who says they are "happy" in their current relationships? Many stay with someone because it is convenient.
Johnny and Mark have stated that it is difficult to continue with a relationship after the show but many couples have made it work. Look at Heather and Dustin, Brad and Tori, etc... EVERY relationship takes work not just long distance ones. Both have to be willing to work.
CT has mentioned on his latest interviews that Diem likes to portray him as the "Bad Guy" Why is he still saying that? Even after the reunion? What is she doing to portray him in that way? He also was asked if they have more respect for each other since the Challenge and he said that she had more for him but made it sound like he lost respect for her. Why? This interview was AFTER the season and I believe it was AFTER the reunion.
Have you seen The Vow? I was surprised how the charactors were similar to CT and Diem. Vegetarian, Lady and the Tramp theme, He never met her family, etc. LOL
