Controversies

Tracy Shapoff Twitter content

Shortly after the announcement of this season's contestants, one of the contestants, Tracy Shapoff, came under fire for her offensive posts on Twitter, bashing reality dating shows and using offensive language, dating back from 2009 to 2011. Shapoff later apologized for her comments on Instagram.[32][55]

Notes

  1. ↑ 1.0 1.1 Randolph originally quit in Week 9,[13] but she returned to the competition after she agreed to Underwood's request for another chance. However, she later won the competition in the After the Final Rose episode.
  2. ↑ On week 9, rose ceremony was not held after Cassie eliminated on her own, and Tayshia and Hannah G. had both eliminated after Colton declared his love with Cassie.
