Controversy
On June 18, 2019, People released a story that contestant Jed Wyatt was in a relationship with Nashville musician Haley Stevens before and during filming of the season. Stevens stated that Wyatt promised her he was going on the show purely to further his music career, that he did not intend to begin a relationship with Brown, and any appearance of him pursuing Hannah Brown was simply "acting". She photographed an alleged note from Wyatt saying "someday we will be thankful for all of this".[64] Brown ended her relationship with Wyatt following this news.[2]
