Fox News anchor Bob Bleckel thinks "Bachelorette" star Andi Dorfman is a "slut" for sleeping with contestant Nick Viall on the show. On Tuesday's episode of "The Five," Bekcel and his co-hosts were discussing the much talked about season finale of "The Bachelorette," in which a still-heartbroken Viall revealed the two hooked up.
"She's a slut," Bekcel said bluntly, according to "Entertainment Tonight."
Co-hosts Greg Gutfeld and Eric Boling laughed while; Dana Parino and Andrea Tantaros were outraged.
"Are you kidding me right now?" Tantaros said.
"I'm not kidding you!" Beckel responded. "She sleeps with somebody else, and doesn't tell the other guy about it?... This is what America's gone to! This crap!"
Towards the end of the segment Beckel did offer a sort-of apology.
"I want to apologize for a word I used in that 'Bachelorette' segment. I'm sorry. It was about that woman that that slept with two guys."
"Maybe it was more than two, I don't know," he added.
Viall told a stunned audience - and angry Dorfman - that they "made love" during the Fantasy Suite episode. For those who are not familiar, the Fantasy Suite is the one time the bachelor or bachelorette can spend time with their favorite contestants without a camera or microphone.
During the finale of "The Bachelorette," Dorfman chose former baseball star Josh Murray and sent Viall packing. Dorfman and Murray are engaged and planning their wedding.
"The hard part is... feeling like you did," Viall told Dorfman. "If you knew how in love with you I was, why did you make love with me?"
"That's below the belt," Dorfman responded coolly, clearly agitated.
She went on to say that she eliminated Viall before the final rose ceremony because she didn't want him to pick out an engagement ring and propose to her. Viall wasn't happy with her response but host Chirs Harrison intervened and brought out Dorfman's new fiancé, Josh Murray.
