The Bachelorette‘s Michael Turnbull has slammed this year’s Bachelors over their “disrespectful behaviour” towards contestants.
The 41-year-old, who was previously engaged to this season’s villain Tash Candyce, took aim at Felix Von Hofe, Jed McIntosh and Thomas Malucelli in a fiery Instagram post on January 10.
“The behaviour of the men is so disrespectful to women… it’s not cool,” the Bachelor in Paradise 2018 star fumed.
“R.I.P. Romance 10th Jan 2023,” he added.
It comes as viewers blasted The Bachelors star Felix for macking on with any contestant he could get his hands on in the show’s first few episodes.
He was also criticised for his gross stance on polyamory after it was revealed contestant Jess Navin was in an open relationship.
“Felix is the definition of aggressive misogyny and toxic masculinity and he has no idea,” one viewer remarked on Twitter.
“I’m going to need a hot shower to scrub the Felix off me after this ep,” a second said.
Another added, “Felix is actually the epitome of the word ‘ick’.” They’re not wrong, tbh!
The Bachelorette 2015 star Michael Turnbull was previously engaged to The Bachelors 2023 villain Tash Candyce
Following his stint on The Bachelorette, Michael was engaged to fellow reality star and The Bachelors villain, Tash.
After placing runner-up in Sam Frost’s season in 2015, the former professional footballer began dating the 30-year-old real estate agent back in 2018.
Interestingly, Tash was meant to star in the sixth season of Married At First Sight but dropped out when the pair became a couple.
After just two months together, the Brisbane-based couple announced their engagement, though they eventually broke up in early 2019.
Tash was ALSO briefly engaged to Agostino ‘Aggi’ Guardiani from Elly and Becky Miles’ season of The Bachelorette.
