At the beginning of his 2013 season, it really seemed like Juan Pablo Galavis had a lot going for him on "The Bachelor." However, he quickly lost his standing with a lot of viewers when he revealed that he was against the idea of a gay contestant appearing on the show.
Galavis commented that he "respected" gay people but didn't think having a gay person on the show would be "a good example for kids to watch on TV." In response, ABC released their own statement affirming that they disagreed (via E!): "Juan Pablo's comments were careless, thoughtless and insensitive, and in no way reflect the views of the network, the show's producers or studio."
Things got worse after Galavis went swimming in the ocean with contestant Clare Crawley, who was a frontrunner for quite some time. He ultimately chose to leave the show with Nikki Ferrell, but not before insulting Crawley in the end. As reported by E!, "During their final date, she and Juan Pablo had a moment sans cameras as a helicopter was landing. He leaned over and whispered something to her that was so offensive and sexual that she couldn't even repeat it, and as she described it, 'Something that no woman wants to hear.'"
