Bad reputation,\u201d Kaity shared during the episode. \u201cAnd Zach was telling me that while her season was airing. I\u2019m like, \u2018OK, well he could\u2019ve been a bad egg, then, but maybe he\u2019s changed.\u2019 We\u2019re all hopeful for that. No. The guy texted Zach and was like, \u2018See man? I told ya. Not good.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n<p>After Jenn, 26, and Devin got engaged during the season 21 finale, the former couple confirmed they split before the After the Final Rose special was filmed. Not only did Jenn accuse Devin of pulling back after their engagement, but she claimed he followed several women,<a href=\"https:\/\/www.lifeandstylemag.com\/posts\/maria-georgas-has-never-met-bachelorettes-devin-strader\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> including <strong>Maria Georgas<\/strong><\/a>, on social media shortly after they split.<\/p>\n<p>Devin quickly faced backlash from fans, and he eventually <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lifeandstylemag.com\/posts\/bachelorettes-devin-strader-breaks-silence-on-jenn-tran-split\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">broke his silence on his split from Jenn<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> in a 13-minute video posted via Instagram.

We both had missteps, we both had flaws, we both had mistakes along the way,\u201d he said in the clip. \u201cBut the love that Jenn and I had, and the love that especially I had for Jenn, is not something that I\u2019m attempting to lie about, it\u2019s not something I can fake. Every single day was an uphill battle and as a man, I\u2019m trying to support and love the best way I can.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The controversies continued when it was revealed that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lifeandstylemag.com\/posts\/bachelorettes-devin-straders-ex-had-restraining-order-against-him\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Devin\u2019s ex had a restraining order against<\/a> him for harassing her in 2017, <em>Life &amp; Style<\/em> confirmed on Tuesday, September 17.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-caption alignnone\">\n<div class=\"ratio-based-placeholder\" style=\"padding-bottom:80%;\"><\/div><figcaption class=\"photo-credit\"><span class=\"credit\">Disney\/John Fleenor<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>However, Devin denied the claims in a statement issued via his Instagram Story on Thursday, September 19. \u201cThe accusations are simply not true as I have never inappropriately laid hands on another individual or treated my ex-girlfriend in any of the ways I have been depicted.
