Call it a casting “oops.”

One of the contestants chosen for Nick Viall’s season of The Bachelor was a woman he had previously hooked up with at a wedding, a source close to the show reveals. Neither Viall nor the woman acknowledged their past when they reunited on the first day of taping, but the source says Viall wasn’t pleased.

“He didn’t want any girls on the show that he already knew or had a date with,” the source says. “He felt it was a waste of a person being there.”

It remains unclear whether the contestant in question was removed from the show. The Bachelor will air in January on ABC.
