A Bachelorette contestant has been slammed on social media for appearing to angle for a threesome with both Bachelorettes.
On last night's episode, Glenn Richards appeared to have misunderstood the new "double Bachelorette" set-up after new Bachelorette Lily McManus was introduced.
"I haven't had two women at the same timeyet, this could be my chance," he told the camera.
After asking original Bachelorette Lesina Nakhid-Schuster if she and Lily were "together", the personal trainer then asked the doctor if she and Lily were looking for a man "each" or if it was a "two for one" deal.
"Urghhhh why is Glenn from The Bachelorette such a creep?!" wrote another.
the bachelorette glenn is so slimy looking how can they look past that on top of how he acts 😭 he shoulda been booted after those weird threesome questions and gross 'rap'
In a statement provided by broadcaster TVNZ, Richards said he was "just trying to have some fun with the situation".
"I'm a light-hearted kind of guy and I love a bit of banter, and that's obviously not coming through on the show unfortunately," he said.
"I was joking around with those comments and definitely didn't mean anything by it, or to cause any offence – especially to Lily or Lesina."
