According to the 27-year-old’s ABC bio and LinkedIn profile, he is a marketing sales representative for a New York-based company, Mondo.
His only education is listed as obtaining a Bachelor’s in marketing from Saint Michael’s College in Vermont.
However, an insider revealed to The Sun that “Greg is an actor” - which has “always been his passion.”
The informant continued: “He had a big ego, but most kids at that school did. He did speak a lot about fame though and it seemed like he needed a lot of recognition to feel good about himself. For some reason, he’s trying to come off like he’s in marketing which is just not true. Or if it is, is just an extremely recent development and not at all how he’s portraying it.”
The source continued: “Greg thought he could pull a fast one on the audience by just not acknowledging he’s a trained actor and pretending to be some marketing guy.
The account captioned the post: "Connor defended Greg on Twitter. He says there was no gaslighting when Katie herself (who was there) shared a post about gaslighting #thebachelorette."
Yesterday, shaded Greg posting about the effects of after fans accused him of "narcissistic" and "manipulative" behavior.
Katie, 30, took to Instagram to re-share a post from the account detailing "gaslighting" and the way to identify someone who is "emotionally abusive."
The post read: "So you want to talk about gaslighting," as it explained the history behind the "psychological manipulation" tactic.
"Gaslighting is a form of emotional abuse or psychological manipulation involving distorting the truth in order to confuse or instill doubt in another person to the point they question their own sanity or reality," the account claimed.
The contestant became enraged and claimed he reached his "breaking point" after Katie wouldn't say she loved him.
After returning from hometown visits, Greg told Katie: “I had no idea I was going to fall in love with you but I did.
The next morning, visited Katie's hotel room and confessed it “scared the hell out of him” that she didn't say she loved him.
