The Bachelor bachelorette Lesley Murphy is going out of her way to deny claims she is dating former The Bachelorette bachelor and Bachelor Pad contestant Chris Bukowski.

Murphy, a 25-year-old political consultant, recently served as a surprise auctioneer at a Virginia charity event in which a date with Bukowski was auctioned off, prompting speculation the pair may be dating.
According to a new Us Weekly report which cited an unnamed "insider," Bukowski had recently contacted Murphy via Twitter and the pair -- who both currently reside in the Washington, DC area -- began "hooking up."
However, Murphy told Reality TV World she doesn't even have a guy in the picture right now.
"No, there's not. I'm just having a good time in D.C. and, you know, I am definitely a 20-something single girl and definitely looking toward the next move and settling down with a nice southern gentleman. Yeah, I'm just loving life and that's all I can say about that! I'm definitely single and in a good spot, so I can't complain," she said.
Murphy was ousted from The Bachelor's seventeenth season just before Lowe visited the remaining four bachelorettes' hometowns.
Bukowski vied for the heart of Emily Maynard during The Bachelorette's eighth season and finished fourth in line. However, he then went on to create waves and controversy during the third season of Bachelor Pad last summer, finishing as the second-place couple with Sarah Newlon and developing a reputation as a womanizer.
Afterwards, Bukowski insisted he wasn't sorry for his behavior and didn't have regrets.
