In the record of Bachelor history, it’s tough to consider a more reviled figure than Juan Pablo Galavis. According to legend, the simple noise of his name suffices to wilt roses, and in some circles, it is even stated that his voice can make champagne go flat. He is returning to ABC on Sunday to play a brand-new function– the encouraging dad of an American Idol candidate.
Bachelor fans most likely keep in mind how typically Juan Pablo raised his young child, Camila Galavis, as a reason to prevent snogging the ladies he didn’t seem like kissing. She was 4 or 5 years of ages throughout his season, and now, it’s time to fulfill her as a teen as she contends for a ticket to Hollywood from judges Katy Perry, Lionel Richie, and Luke Bryan.
