'Bachelor in Paradise' season 3 news: Chad Johnson hasn't apologized to Sarah Herron
"Bachelor in Paradise" has just returned for its third season, but the events in the reality show are already intense, at least, between "The Bachelorette" villain Chad Johnson and "Bachelor in Paradise" contestant Sarah Herron, who was insulted by the latter for her physical disabilities. Despite Johnson having apologized for his actions in the pre-taped events, Herron claims that his issued apologies are marred with insincerity.
In the premiere episode of "Bachelor in Paradise" season 3, Johnson lashed at Herron by calling her "one-armed b**ch." After the said episode was aired, Johnson posted a video on his Twitter account, apologizing for his rowdy actions. Herron replied to the post by saying that Johnson can make up for his mistake by making a donation to her nonprofit organization, SheLift, which works on empowering women, especially those with disabilities.

Johnson has also issued an apology over the incident when he was interviewed by Entertainment Tonight last week, but it has been learned that he hasn't apologized personally to Herron yet.
"I think if he really wanted to apologize to me, which he still should, and can, it should be in person. Reach out to me — don't do it on Twitter, don't do it with a camera in your face. I just feel like he's not sorry," Herron said in an interview with Entertainment Tonight.
For Herron, Johnson's act of making fun of the disability she is born with is simply something worth challenging. And, true enough, in the said premiere episode of "Bachelor in Paradise" season 3, Herron stood up against Johnson, which resulted in the tense and dramatic scene between the two.
Many people commended Herron for staying cool, calm, and collected during her spar with Johnson, noting that she handled the situation with class. In fact, with what Herron showed, Bustle even opines that she is the much-needed hero of the reality program.
Will there be more tense encounters between Herron and Johnson in the upcoming episodes of "Bachelor in Paradise" season 3? Will Johnson eventually personally apologize to Herron?
