The latest season of "The Bachelorette," which premiered on July 11, will feature two single ladies looking for connection amid 32 potential suitors.

The dramatic season 26 finale of "The Bachelor," starring former football pro Clayton Echard, ended in a messy breakup in Iceland, after frontrunner Susie Evans left the show of her own volition (and later reunited with Echard). Two contestants, Rachel Recchia and Gabby Windey, left the show single.

Now, Recchia and Windey are back together once again on the hunt for their soulmates in season 19 of "The Bachelorette."

Recchia, 26, and Windey, 31, are poised to get to know a lot of men throughout the format-breaking season, which is the first to ever feature two bachelorettes simultaneously, all season long.

An early teaser saw the contestants introducing themselves — and gave a preview to the question on Bachelor Nation's mind: How is this season with two bachelorettes going to work? As Windey put it on her Instagram: "Double the trouble double the fun."

Based on their official bios from ABC, these bachelors have some, uh, unique passions, ranging from drag racing and Yahtzee to meatballs and magic.

Chris, an author of two books, describes himself as “extremely driven” and is seeking a woman who’s “ambitious, compassionate and secure.” Meanwhile, Hayden, a leisure executive from Florida, has one deal breaker in mind when it comes to dating: A woman who doesn’t love dogs.

If Recchia and Windey are seeking out their Prince Charming, they might find luck with Ethan, a self-proclaimed “hopeless romantic” or Mario, who is “emotionally available and proudly wears his heart on his sleeve.”

Or if they're competitive, they can go up against Aven, a sales executive who loves Yahtzee, or Mario, a Tetris pro. If they're feeling adventurous, they can travel around the U.S. in a van with Justin B.

If the bachelorettes are seeking a man with ambition, they should sidle up to Matt, a 25-year-old who already owns his own business. Or if they want an intellectual who will introduce them to new things, Jason is a bookworm who reads 30-40 books a year.

Sometimes, it's hard to tell a dating show contestant's true intentions, but John, a 26-year-old English teacher, has already made it clear that he wants to "put a ring on it" if he finds his perfect match. Erich, a real estate analyst, is also in it "for the long haul" and doesn't want to be in a relationship "just to be in a relationship."

The bachelorettes are also in for double trouble when twin brothers go head to head vying for their love. Now that would be a fairytale ending!

Below, meet the suitors and keep track of who is still left on the show.
