Courtney Robertson continues to feed Bachelor Ben Flajnik lines of love to manipulate him into thinking she's the real deal. But as soon as Courtney is away from Ben, she makes it seem like she's more concerened about winning than falling in love -- and let's not even talk about her constant bashing of the other women on the show. Now, host Chris Harrison tells HollywoodLife.com Courtney really needs to apologize to Ben for her bad behavior on The Bachelor. "I think that she will admit, hopefully admit, that she went a little too far and some of the things she said were a little inappropriate and they were rude," Chris told us during a conference call on Feb. 9.

It gets a gasp from the audience." We have to admit we're not
