The Bachelorette’s Georgia Love came under fire after she shared a video that appeared to mock a man with facial paralysis.

The TV star, 34, shared the now-deleted clip on TikTok, which captured her performing a skit in which a mystery man sent her out for drinks at a bar.

Georgia was all smiles in the video as she accepted the free glass of champagne, before the camera panned to the mystery man in the bar who bought it for her.

Australian comedian Sammy Peterson, who has facial paralysis, was shown smiling at him from across the bar.

Georgia captioned the clip with some telling words: “POV: Guy at the bar sends you a drink… Guy at the bar.”

‘This is disgusting. You are often wrong, right? There is a difference between imitating a scoundrel and imitating someone who looks disabled,” one person criticized.

‘Oh wow, Georgia once again misses the mark. When is she going to learn? a second person asked.

However, one person argued that because the man in the clip was played by a real-life comedian with facial paralysis, it “made sense” in context, but was quickly refuted by another who said: “He’s not himself in the video, so it’s irrelevant.” ‘

Daily Mail Australia has contacted Georgia for comment.

This is not the first time Georgia has found herself in trouble for a video she shared on social media.

The reality TV personality, who later deleted the video, returned to Instagram with a heartfelt apology post.
