"Golden Bachelor" star Mel Owens has acknowledged that his comments about only wanting to date women younger than him were "insensitive."

If you’re still skeptical, Mel understands. He told Glamour that the first thing he did when filming on The Golden Bachelor started last month was to apologize. “I said, ‘It was unfair, insensitive. I want to earn it back. Just give me the chance,’” he revealed, adding that he plans on earning the audience’s trust back, too.
