ABC Has Chosen This Year's Bachelor — Get The Details!
This post contains spoilers on the upcoming season of The Bachelor.
Chris Harrison is hopefully getting his bags packed and ready for the new season of The Bachelor, because ABC has chosen their newest contestant-turned-leading-man.
According to E!, there were at least six men considered for the job, including Joe Amabile, Colton Underwood, Jason Tartick, and Blake Horstmann.
For those who aren't caught up with the show, here's what the men look like:
While ABC hasn't confirmed who will be handing out roses this season, Reality Steve has come out saying that Colton Underwood will be the next Bachelor.
My thoughts are Sean Lowe has been their only successful Bachelor. They must feel Colton is the closest thing they’ll get to Sean. Character, morals, no shady past, etc. Sean 2.0. Here we go. Let the freaking out begin.

Colton is a 26-year-old NFL free agent and comes from Bachelorette Becca Kufrin's season. He caused a bit of an uproar when Bachelor fans found out that he had previously dated gymnast Aly Raisman, and has been open about the fact that he's a virgin. Becca sent him home after her friend and former Bachelor contestant Tia Booth, said that she still had feelings for Colton (also her ex), which was probably a good call, as Colton and Tia are now coupled on the currently-airing season of Bachelor in Paradise.
There will be an official announcement made on Tuesday morning, but for now there is still much speculation. Bachelor Nation favorite Ashley Iaconetti told E! that she wouldn't mind having Joe as the main man, and Becca Kufrin would like to see Jason in the limelight, saying:
I want all of those guys to find somebody like what I found in Garrett but Jason will always have a soft spot in my heart. He just has such an exuberant personality, he's just fun and it's contagious so I would love to watch Jason. I think it'd be such a fun season. He'd go all in on every single date and make every girl feel comfortable. I think he'd be good.
Either way, you might want to start stocking up on rosé for your viewing parties ASAP.
