5. Greg Grippo

Mr. Greg is the most recent person to enter the franchise that is on this list. At first, I hated him. Then my Dad convinced me to like him and that he wasn’t all that bad. Well, that was a lie! Greg Grippo ended up being one of the biggest scum bags to ever grace the face of this franchise.

Here’s what he did…so, on Katie Thurston’s season of The Bachelorette, he made it to just before finale night. He essentially eliminated himself after professing his love for Katie. He was faking it. He is an (awful at that) actor and ultimately broke Katie’s heart who just wasn’t having it whenever he tried defending his sad and ugly self on After the Final Rose. Good for her, though!

6. Jed Wyatt

Jed with the head, as I like to call him (and a weirdly shaped head at that). He was the untalented musician who graced the season of The Bachelorette with Hannah Brown as the leading lady. I didn’t like Hannah at all; however, the reasons that Jed is on this list…no one deserves…ever.

Here’s what he did…so, he made it super-duper far on the show…all on lies, though! Not only did he just want to get on the show to make a name for himself in the music industry, but he also cheated on Brown not too long into their engagement. Dodged a bullet there. Hopefully, more women do!

7. Luke Parker

Ew. Just ew. People might remember him and they might not. Here’s yet another scum bag to come out of Hannah Brown’s season of The Bachelorette. Wow…what a season full of winners, am I right? Remember Peter too? Gross, of course, we all unfortunately do!

So, as far as Luke Parker goes, he always seemed like he was going to pop off on all of the guys at any given moment in time. As far as what he did, he always and was constantly talking down upon Hannah and making her feel s****y for certain choices that she made…shameful Luke, gross!
