“The Bachelorette” castoff Tyler Cameron revealed that he only had $200 to his name when he was dating Gigi Hadid.

The reality star enjoyed a brief two-month romance with the supermodel in 2019 shortly after his appearance on the popular ABC dating show.

On Monday’s episode of fellow Bachelor Nation alum Jason Tatrick’s “Trading Secrets” podcast, Cameron revealed his lack of finances.

“He says to me, ‘Dude, I don’t know what the fuck I’m doing. I’ve got $5,000 in my bank account, I don’t know what my next job is, and I’m dating Gigi Hadid,'” Tatrick said.

“Not even $5,000, I had $200, you know what I mean?” Cameron corrected him.

“I would go on dates — like this is in my early days living in New York City. I live on Matt’s beanbag,” he said, referring to fellow Bachelor Nation alum Matt James.

“I ain’t got no money, but I’m the happiest I’ve ever been, ’cause like the world’s wide open to me in New York City.” I can do whatever I want,” he added.

Cameron recalled calling his father from the bathroom to ask him for money for the date he was on.

“I’d go on dates, I’m like bubbles, pops up in the bathroom.” I’m like, ‘Pops, I don’t think my credit card is going through. I want you to send me some money now.’ And he said, ‘You got it son, go get it,'” Cameron recalled.

“If you go on a date with Gigi and you only have $200 to your name, how do you pay for it? Do you ever have a story, how do you approach it?” Tatrick asked.

“You’re just crossing your fingers at this point,” Cameron explained. “At this point I don’t even know what a credit card is.”

“I have a regular debit card, so when you hit zero, you hit zero, you know, so I just cross my fingers, hoping it swipes, and it just kept swiping,” he added.

In July 2019, Hadid took the first step by following Cameron on Instagram while on Hannah Brown’s season of “The Bachelorette.”

Cameron came in second on the ABC dating show, but after Brown broke off her engagement to winner Jed Wyatt, she asked Cameron out for a drink.

The pair made up for the same weekend in Los Angeles as Cameron’s first date with Hadid.

After his short-lived romance with Hadid fizzled, Cameron was romantically linked to Camila Kendra and model Paige Lorenze.

Cameron and Lorenze called it quits in August, just 3 weeks after going public with their romance.
