Becca Kufrin Shares Her Thoughts on Emmanuel Acho Hosting 'After the Final Rose' for 'The Bachelor' Season 25
On the latest episode of “Bachelor Happy Hour,” Becca Kufrin shared her thoughts on Emmanuel Acho hosting “The Bachelor’s” upcoming “After the Final Rose” special, stepping in for Chris Harrison.
(Chris is currently on hiatus from the franchise following his “Extra” interview with Rachel Lindsay in February.)
“[Emmanuel] is all about inclusion and diversity, not only within the franchise but within our society,” Becca said of the athlete-turned-author, noting the impact of his bestselling book, “Uncomfortable Conversations with a Black Man,” and its accompanying YouTube series.
“He’s not afraid to get uncomfortable and hold tough conversations, especially for people who look like me,” the Season 14 Bachelorette continued. “I highly recommend checking him out. Look at his ‘Uncomfortable Conversations’ and get a feel for him because he is incredible. We can’t wait to see him sit down with Matt [James] and some of the girls on the finale and have some of those conversations, because it is so needed in this day and age.”
Emmanuel announced on Saturday that he will preside over the anticipated one-hour special for the landmark 25th season of “The Bachelor.”
