It looks like a recent photoshoot for The Bachelor didn’t go quite as planned. The ABC reality series recently flew their current contestant, Peter Weber along with his roster of dates to Costa Rica. One of the events on the show’s itinerary was to get some photos of Weber and company, but apparently some of the bikinis were deemed a little too risky to air in primetime.
The solution, it seems, was to digitally alter the footage to make it appear like there was more fabric on the swimsuits than there really was. The problem, however, is that the quality of these digital alterations were distracting at best.

As TMZ noted, fans didn’t hesitate to point out how bad it looked when the show aired.

Last month, a former contestant on The Bachelorette, Tyler Gwozdz, passed away at 29 of a suspected drug overdose. Commonly known as “Tyler G,” he’d competed for Hannah Brown’s affection during the show’s 2019 season. He was the first contestant to get a one-on-one date with the titular Bachelorette, though he later left the dating competition for reasons that were never made public. At the time, Brown simply stated that Gwozdz “had to leave.”
In the wake of his death, several of Gwowdz’s reality show alums took to social media to share their memories of him.
“I lost one of my closest friends today,” tweeted Luke Stone, who also appeared on Brown’s season. “Tyler I’ll miss you every day, miss our hours-long conversations about nonsense over the phone, miss how damn funny you were, I had so much happiness and joy for what the future held for us as friends.”
Jed Wyatt, who was the last man standing that same season, said that everyone needs to “stand up and spread love to one another, life is too short.”
