unwelcomed
Received with displeasure
Unwelcomed means not received with pleasure or hospitality, often implying active rejection rather than mere indifference: Her unwelcomed advice only made things worse.
The standard form is unwelcome, without the -d, but unwelcomed appears frequently enough in speech and writing to be established, particularly when emphasizing that someone or something was specifically turned away.
