The show came under fire when it was revealed that Garrett Yrigoyen , who was the recipient of the " First Impression " rose and the eventual winner , had liked offensive posts on Instagram that mocked the trans community , immigrants , and liberal women , along with one post that referred to a survivor of the Stoneman Douglas High School shooting as a crisis actor . Yrigoyen later apologized on Instagram for the hurt and offense that liking the posts may have caused and stated that he will be more mindful of what he likes in the future as those likes " were not a true reflection of him or his morals "
