Love After Lockup: Everything to Know About Scott’s Lip

In all the episodes that feature Scott, the businessman in his 50s, appears to have a very swollen, puffy upper lip. Lindsey, who went to prison for driving over 100 miles per hour to avoid police while she was in possession of a substantial amount of methamphetamines, doesn’t seem to mind. It isn’t Lindsey though, who looks like she has a bad case of meth-mouth. Many people who watch the show have speculated what could be the reason for Scott’s apparent lip condition. Things like a cleft palate, plastic surgery, or even a disease have been suggested by curious fans.

According to Soap Dirt, Scott has finally given everyone an explanation for his lip problem and it’s not what anyone would have expected. The entrepreneur has admitted that the appearance of his upper lip is due to an allergy to “food preservatives.” He even pointed out to fans that it’s certainly not a permanent skin condition and that it is only a “temporary” reaction. He adds that during the filming of the season’s episodes he was experiencing a “flareup” because of the food allergy – canceling out any suspicion that Scott’s lip situation was much more serious.

Although he doesn’t specify exactly what foods or products caused this, it is not uncommon for preservatives to cause demerits or other skin reactions. Chemicals that are put in foods to prevent the growing of bacteria can cause any number of allergies. Sure, Scott could just be saying this to cover up something else that he wants to keep private, but this easily explains why his lip looked so different.
