When Lindsay asked a par-for-the-course question about Kirkconnell, the <em>Extra<\/em> correspondent did not push Harrison to elaborate and she wasn\u2019t expecting Harrison to dive in. But he did, head first \u2014 and with a crash landing.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>So literally all he had to do was\u00a0<em>not<\/em> put his foot in his mouth, and he\u2019d still have his job today!<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s IT!<\/p>\n<p class=\"highlight\">Yikes!!!<\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s more, too.

Trying to head that off before it became an issue, insiders report Harrison took matters into his own hands after the cast and crew of\u00a0<em>The Bachelorette<\/em> was sent to New Mexico earlier this year to quarantine ahead of filming the currently-airing season starring <strong>Katie Thurston<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>The report reveals (emphasis ours):<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cOnce production on Thurston\u2019s season of <em>The Bachelorette<\/em> began, things started to unravel further. While Harrison\u2019s attorney was putting up a tough fight, representing his client against the network and studio, Harrison was still under the impression he could make a comeback for the season. An insider close to production reveals that after cast and crew had already been sent to New Mexico to quarantine for <em>Bachelorette<\/em>, <strong>Harrison was essentially knocking on the door, asking to salvage his job by making calls to various people on set, begging them to put in a good word for him<\/strong>.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p class=\"highlight\">Oof!<\/p>\n<p>Nothing quite like being an integral part of a hit reality TV show for 20 years, defending racism one day on TV, and then feeling like you have to beg crew members to put in a good word so you can get your job back.

And with that, here comes the other most inneresting aspect of Harrison\u2019s hasty retreat: he didn\u2019t come away with anywhere near the amount of payout cash that was initially reported!<\/p>\n<p>We heard multiple reports claiming Chris caught a \u201cmid-range eight-figure payoff\u201d for his trouble, which means his payday would\u2019ve approached somewhere in the realm of $50 million \u2014 a nice golden parachute if true. But he didn\u2019t get that at all! He got less than a FIFTH of that!<\/p>\n<p>Here\u2019s what\u00a0<em>Variety<\/em> claims after checking in on things in Friday\u2019s report:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cDespite previous reports, Harrison did not walk away with a substantial eight-figure payout. Two individuals familiar with the negotiations say that the host got $9 million, plus remaining contractual fees, which brought his total exit package to roughly $10 million \u2014 about the same paycheck he would have made from two years of work, as his contract was said to be around $5 million per year.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p class=\"highlight\">Womp, womp\u2026<\/p>\n<p>OK, to be totally fair, we\u2019d ABSOLUTELY take $10 million if any of you have it lying around. LOLz!<\/p>\n<p>But still, just saying, that\u2019s far from \u201cmid-range eight-figures\u201d and definitely a huge step down in leverage, proving <em>Bachelor<\/em> producers were more than happy to get rid of Chris quickly and completely.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Related: Does Chris Harrison\u2019s Abrupt Firing Really Prove We Are ALL Doomed??<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>What do U make of all this\u00a0<em>Bachelor<\/em> craziness, Perezcious readers??<\/p>\n<p>Do U see Chris\u2019 departure any differently knowing all these new details now?!<\/p>\n<p>BTW, you can read the full\u00a0<em>Variety<\/em> breakdown <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/variety.com\/2021\/tv\/news\/chris-harrison-bachelor-exit-payout-1235000029\/\">HERE<\/a>!
