Following his appearance on the show, Caine ran into some controversy that potentially prevented him from returning for the reunion show — though this was never confirmed (per Deadline).

In since-deleted posts, Caine allegedly used some inappropriate phrases that seemingly mocked the Asian culture. Caine also shared some information regarding the inner workings of the show that were somewhat frowned upon by the producers (per The Hollywood Reporter).

Daia McGhee

27-year-old photographer Daia McGhee’s engaging personality and unique beauty catch the eye of some of the men in Casa Amor. She particularly attracts the interest of someone already involved with another person, which leads to plenty of drama.

She said it “breaks my heart so much” when she saw all the hate people were receiving. She continued, “They’re real people with real feelings.”
