For Season 28 of “The Bachelor,” we’ll be following along with heartthrob Joey Graziadei.
As Season 28 gets underway, more and more facts are coming out about the contestants on the show.
One contestant in particular Marlena Haddad has caused quite the buzz.
And it all comes down to an unlikely reason: her questionable connection to former president Donald Trump.
ARedditpost revealed that Haddad is a former White House aide to Donald Trump.
Haddad’s connection to the controversial politician had several commenters denouncing her, particularly those in the LGBTQ+ community.
During an interview on “Bachelor Nation,” Graziadei called his father one of his favorite people.
Many commenters on the Reddit post found Haddad’s inclusion on the show to be offensive.
Other Reddit users stated that Haddad’s past affiliation with Trump doesn’t automatically make her a bad person.
“There are a lot of career-driven reasons to be a political aide,” one commenter wrote.
