One of the men competing for Joan Vasso‘s final rose on The Golden Bachelorette was accused of stalking a woman just before filming on the dating show began.
The accuser, who is 62 and lives in California, made the allegations in a temporary domestic violence restraining order she filed against contestant Gil Ramirez, 60, June 11, a few days before the inaugural season of ABC’s Golden Bachelor spinoff entered production.
E! News has reached out to Ramirez Sept. 18 and the TV network for comment and has not heard back.
In her filing, obtained by E! News Sept. 20, the woman alleged that Ramirez, whom she described as her “ex-boyfriend,” harassed her emotionally repeatedly over the course of two weeks, most recently May 20.
She wrote in her TRO request that despite telling Ramirez not to contact her, he arrived at her house and “made repeated unwanted contact” with her, family members and friends. The woman also alleged that there were 25 daily attempts via phone, texts and email and that he also showed up in person to confront her at places she frequents every day.
