Catherine Giudici, the only Asian American and person of color ever to win on either the Bachelor or Bachelorette, appeared in a much talked about Bachelor edition of Celebrity Wife Swap Wednesday night.
Catherine, whose mother is an active member of the Filipino American community in Seattle, switched husbands with Molly Melaney.
During the episode it was revealed the Catherine has played the role of the very traditional wife for her husband Sean Lowe, reports Hollywood Life.
He works and she stays home to cook, clean and do the housework.
She even irons his socks, which set off a torrent of criticism from fans.
Sean would later say the show made him look like a “complete jackass.”
Catherine doesn’t appear ready to give up on Sean. She sent out an Instagram photo defending her husband.
