The Bachelor season finale never fails to captivate audiences with its whirlwind of drama, romance, and unexpected twists. As another season draws to a close, viewers are left happy, sad and excited to see the upcoming season of The Bachelorette.
Last week, we said goodbye to Bachelor Joey Graziadei as his season ended. Viewers were happy to see him and Kelsey A. filled with happy tears, finally witnessing a beautiful engagement. Now, let’s break down the finale and the details it was filled with.
After both final dates, we saw the hint Joey was putting down with contestant Daisy, on how he would let her go. Their date ended with Daisy picking up on the fact that she would be going home, and viewers’ hearts were broken, as she was a fan favorite.
Kelsey’s date, however, left her more confident than ever. At the end of the day, we saw, for the first time, the final two ladies riding together in the car to Joey. Daisy and Kelsey had a friendship like none other on The Bachelor and had fans going crazy.
Seeing Daisy walk away from the altar was a moment that left contestants heartbroken yet again. She left us with the words, “If I could love the wrong person this much, Imagine how much I could love the right one.”
After the actual episode, we caught up with contestants afterward with host Jesse Palmer. We saw Joey and Kelsey appear in an interview for the first time as an engaged couple, and for the entire time, clung to our popcorn bowls while waiting for the announcement of Bachelor Nation’s next Bachelorette.
Throughout the rest of the night, we had Jesse Palmer hinting towards Daisy or Maria being the next bachelorette. When Daisy announced she was not ready to jump into a relationship again, fans were sure Maria would be announced as our bachelorette.
To our surprise, it was announced that Bachelor Nation’s next Bachelorette will be Jen! The witty, funny, sarcastic girl that fans loved during Joey’s season will be returning to the small screen as the Bachelorette, which starts filming this April.
