Even if you’ve watched one season, or even just one mere minute of one season of The Bachelor and/or The Bachelorette, then the chances are pretty dang high of you seeing a controversial contestant!

From attitude, to real-life scandals, and a bit of behind-the-scenes action, we’re here to discuss it all with you. Did The Bachelor or did The Bachelorette come out with more scandalous people?!

In no particular order, here we go…

The most controversial in The Bachelor franchise history

1. Chad Johnson

Hailing all the way back from JoJo Fletcher’s season of The Bachelorette (super hard to believe, right?), Chad Johnson was not only one of the most controversial contestants of all time, but he was also one of the rudest contestants…ever.

While he did his thing on the actual show, he also made his unfortunate mark and appearance in Bachelor in Paradise. He was most famous for cussing out then host Chris Harrison and ultimately getting himself kicked off the show.

2. Garrett Yrigoyen

People might remember him just for having such a goofy and super hard-to-pronounce last name from Becca’s season of The Bachelorette. However, what some people fail to realize is that he was decently controversial. Nothing compared to some other people on this list, but he is definitely up there for sure.

As things from people’s past tend to come up, past Instagram likes supporting controversial topics came up from Garrett’s past. He and then-fiancé Becca Kufrin ended their engagement, even after sticking together through all the controversy.
