Failed Bachelorette suitor Shawn Evans shares photo of head injury after being attacked by fellow reality star in Canada 

He was unlucky in love on this season of the Bachelorette and it seems things aren't going much better off-screen for former contestant Shawn Evans.

The 31-year-old revealed a nasty head wound last week after reportedly being attacked by another reality star while enjoying a night out in his native Canada.

In a selfie seemingly taken at hospital, Shawn wrote: 'And just when you're gearing up to start getting back into the swing of things and crushing your career, someone decides to whip a brick at your head from their second story balcony.
