Breaking up with someone is pretty uncomfortable, but it’s something we all go through. It’s awkward, full of these intense emotions we can’t control and is probably one of the least exciting and fun experiences to go through in life. So imagine, meeting the supposed love of your life on a dating reality show only for the love to fizzle out a few months later.
The Bachelor and Bachelorette have produced some of the cutest reality TV couples ever, like Trista Rehn and Ryan Sutter, and equally some of the worst.
Breaking up is hard to do but what happens when you do in the public eye? These seven Bachelor and Bachelorette breakups undoubtedly prove to be the worst, and we’ve got all the cringe-worthy details on how it all went down.
1. Jason Mesnick & Melissa Rycroft: The Bachelor

The OG bachelor Mesnick went on the show and ultimately pulled a Steve Harvey by saying that he accidentally chose the wrong one during the finale. With no shame in his game, Mesnick asked out Molly Malaney right after being called a bastard by Rycroft on live television. To our disbelief, Mesnick may have actually been right about his decision because he and Malaney have been married since 2010.
2. Jake Pavelka & Vienna Girardi: The Bachelor

Hands down the most brutal of breakups once again goes to bachelor Pavelka and Girardi who chose to air their dirty laundry out for us all to see. We guess this is what happens when you choose the season’s “villain” to be the lady of your life. When Harrison attempted to sit down with the pair following their breakup to air it out, viewers tuned into a 10-minute clip full of pettiness and messiness.
3. Nick Viall & Andi Dorfman: The Bachelorette

Viall’s had his way around Bachelor nation quite a few times. We hated him in The Bachelorette, tolerated him in Bachelor in Paradise and detested him in The Bachelor. Viall’s most douche-worthy moment though came during season 10 when he aired out the couple’s most intimate moments on live television. His douchebag debut came in the form of public humiliation when he confronted Dorfman by asking her why she slept with him if she wasn’t in love with him? Umm, rude much?
4. Juan Pablo & Clare Crawley: The Bachelor
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tY34-hgeUuw
Oh Pablo, Pablo, Pablo. Crawley’s luck in love is dismal, and while she’s fresh off of heartbreak in the Bachelor Winter Games, Crawley telling off Pablo makes this one of the most classic breakups in Bachelor Nation history. After being dumped for Nikki, Crawley took the time to tell off Pablo for pretty much being an asshole who’s finer romance moments included telling her that he “loves f***ing her.”
5. Olivia Caridi & Ben Higgins: The Bachelor
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hbl5REtne4Y
Okay, we hate to admit it, but Caridi was easily one of the most, if not the most hated while on The Bachelor. Cocky as hell and incredibly conceited Caridi thought she had it in the bag until she totally didn’t and was dumped by Higgins and left on a gorgeous deserted island by her lonesome. So evil but we couldn’t help but watch in amazement.
6. Andi Dorfman & Juan Pablo: The Bachelor
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gB08nQOEMcA
Yep, that’s right Dorfman and our hot Venezuelan bachelor, Pablo make the list yet again. Pablo definitely proved that good looks will only get you so far with his super controversial season. As sweet as Dorfman was, even she had her breaking point when she admitted to not really being in love with Pablo. As hard as it was for Dorfman to make this confession Pablo’s response was equally as infuriating when he simply replied, “It’s ok.”
This leads Dorfman to clap back at Pablo’s ass, and we honestly loved it.
7. Emily Maynard & Kalon McMahon: The Bachelorette
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bmFoi9YqSSE
No one comes for a mama bear and her cubs. Apparently, McMahon didn’t get that message though because after calling Maynard’s daughter “baggage” Maynard had to let McMahon know that that was not gonna fly, so buh-bye!
Which couple from Bachelor nation did you want to see make it that didn’t?
