8 Shocking Sex Scandals on The Bachelor and Bachelorette

Since The Bachelor's inception nearly 14 years ago — Monday's the 20th season premiere of the reality TV dating show, and we recently finished season 11 of spinoff The Bachelorette — it's really the overnight-date episode that's the pinnacle of sexual awkwardness. Everyone knows the drill, and yet the bachelor/ette still has to read aloud the fantasy suite date card asking if the contestant wants to forgo their individual room to spend the night with him or her. Now, they never outright say what the real purpose of the date is — to have sex — instead, they usually make a point to explain that they just want "more time to get to know each other" privately. So who's to say what really happens . . .

We have looked into the history of the sexiest episodes of The Bachelor franchise to get behind the curtain (or, rather, under the sheets) of the fantasy dates on the show. Find out who had the most embarrassing overnight, who turned them all down, and more now!

I think in this case the overnights were the tamest they've ever been. Sean really holds his “born-again virgin” status in high esteem and the girls seem to respect him for it. It makes me believe more than anything that Des' brother's accusation last week that he's a playboy is inaccurate. What man wouldn't jump on the chance to spend the night with three beautiful women on three different nights? Based on the clip I watched in my office at DISH everyone seemed to have enjoyed their dates in Thailand. After all, the country is so magical and who can resist that local charm? I think that Sean made the right decision when he decided to send AshLee home; the chemistry just didn't feel genuine. I didn't get to see the episode when it aired last night but I got caught up on the train ride home. Thanks to the Hopper and DISH Anywhere I was able to turn my iPad into a TV and see what I missed.
