Fox News’ Bob Beckel, a co-host on The Five, is getting backlash for calling The Bachelorette star Andi Dorfman a “sl-t” for sleeping with both Nick Viall and her now-fiance Josh Murray.

The sex secret was made public by Viall, who asked Dorfman on the finale why she “made love” to him if she wasn’t in love with him.

After calling Dorfman a “sl-t,” The Five panelist Andrea Tantaros stood up for Dorfman, asking “are you kidding me right now?”

"Excuse me Bob, you probably sleep with a different woman every night," she fired back, Daily News reports.

At the end of the show, Beckel, a USA Today columnist, did apologize for his choice of words but didn’t exactly back down on what he meant.

"I want to apologize for a word I used in that Bachelorette segment, that woman who slept with two guys. Well, maybe it was more than two, I don't know,” he said.
