The decision came after an interview with former Bachelorette Rachel Lindsay, in which Harrison sought to defend current Bachelor contestant Rachael Kirkconnell against allegations of racist and offensive behaviour.
After his interview with Lindsay, Harrison apologised in an Instagram post for “wrongly speaking in a manner that perpetuates racism”.
I am sorry to Rachel Lindsay and I am sorry to the Black community.”
In an interview on Good Morning America on Thursday, the host was asked by Michael Strahan why he defended Kirkconnell during that interview.
