This mother-son duo from TLC's hit 'I Love A Mama's Boy' managed to secure a spot in the fans' black book with the way they treated Kimberly Cobb.

Braunwyn Windham-Burke: 'Real Housewives of Orange County'

The network listened to the fans and didn't renew her contract.

Greg Grippo: 'The Bachelorette'
Greg Grippo, who appeared on Kathie Thurston's season of 'The Bachelorette' went from sweet loverboy to rom-com villain in no time. When he expressed his love to Katie and she didn't reciprocate it, instead of handling the situation like a mature person, Greg got defensive and refused to talk to Katie. When she tried to talk to him and explain her side of the sotry to him, it only made matters worse as he felt that he wasn't being heard. Fans didn't like watching Greg gaslighting and behaving in an entitled manner around Katie.
Chris Williams: 'MAFS'
With the never-ending drama surrounding one single castmate, Season 13 of 'Married at First Sight' might as well be called the 'Chris Williams Show'. Chris's messy drama with his ex-fiancee/ baby mama Mercedes Myrick and his new wife Paige Banks made for an extremely uncomfortable television show. His flip-flopping between the two ladies made him one of the most hated cast members of the popular reality show. You can read more about it here.

Trina Njoroge: 'Love Island'
Although Trina entered the 'Love Island' villa as one of the fan-favorite islanders, she quickly became one of the most hated islanders when she stole Cashay Prodfoot's partner Melvin Cinco from her.

Kody Brown: 'Sister Wives'

Jamie Skaar: 'The Bachelorette'
From accusing Michelle Young of behaving like she was on a spring break during her stint on the ABC's hit show to spreading rumors about her, Jamie went above and beyond to stir the pot and whip up some drama.
