Taylor Frankie Paul Joins the Biggest Bachelorette Reunion Ever on ‘The Bachelorette: Before the First Rose’
The Bachelorettes are back!
Over the past 21 seasons, “The Bachelorette” has given us unforgettable love stories (and plenty of drama). Now, the show is switching things up with a familiar face stepping into the spotlight.
Taylor Frankie Paul, star of “The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives” and viral TikTok sensation, is the next Bachelorette, and she’s ready to hand out roses in the hope of finding her happily ever after.
And what better way to welcome her into the franchise than with our very own Bachelorettes!
To prepare for her one-of-a-kind season, ABC just announced it will be airing a special preview called “The Bachelorette: Before the First Rose.”
This special will feature 18 of our former leads as they look back on their journeys, spill juicy behind-the-scenes stories, and share heartfelt advice for our newest leading lady.
Our very first Bachelorette, Trista Sutter, will be joined by Meredith Phillips, DeAnna Pappas, Ali Fedotowsky-Manno, Ashley Hebert-Rosenbaum, Emily Maynard-Johnson, Desiree Siegfried, Andi Dorfman-Hart, Kaitlyn Bristowe, JoJo Fletcher, Rachel Lindsay, Becca Kufrin, Hannah Brown-Woolard, Tayshia Adams, Katie Thurston, Rachel Recchia, Charity Lawson, and Joan Vassos — the Golden Bachelorette.
“The Bachelorette: Before the First Rose” will air right after the live broadcast of the Oscars on Sunday, March 15, on ABC and Hulu.
And don’t forget to tune in to Taylor’s journey as she searches to find love on the next season of “The Bachelorette,” premiering Sunday, March 22!
