Susie Evans & More Bachelor Nation Stars React to Episode 1 of ‘Bachelor Mansion Takeover’
Tuning in!
The Bachelor Mansion has always been a staple within the Bachelor Nation franchise. And now, the iconic mansion is getting its very own glow-up in a brand-new design competition series on HGTV called “Bachelor Mansion Takeover.”
In the new show, 12 Bachelor Nation stars compete against one another to renovate the mansion and get the chance to win $100K.
The Bachelor Nation stars competing include Jill Chin, Sam McKinney, Joan Vassos, Dean (Unglert) Bell, Courtney Robertson Preciado, Brendan Morais, Sandra Mason, Jeremy Simon, Noah Erb, Christopher Stallworth, Tammy Kay Ly, and Allyshia Gupta.
The show is hosted by our beloved Jesse Palmer, with fan favorites Tayshia Adams and Tyler Cameron as judges and a variety of special guest judges and appearances from fellow Bachelor Nation stars.
Episode 1 of “Bachelor Mansion Takeover” just premiered on HGTV, and viewers took to social media to share their reactions to the new series.
Fellow Bachelor Nation stars posted snapshots on their Instagram Stories of the show, such as Susie Evans, who wrote, “Okay I just tuned in!! Who else is watching?”
Serene Russell also shared on her Story, “Who’s watching @hgtv @bachelornation takeover???” and added a poll with options, “watching live!, streaming, maybe.”
She then posted a screenshot of her boyfriend Brendan standing on one of the balconies and joked, “If I send you this just know I’m not coming to help 😂😂”
Noah also posted about being on the show and said, “My younger self who wanted to go on @hgtv had no idea it would be because of The Bachelorette 😅🤝”
Jeremy filmed the moment he got sent home and joked, “NOOOOOOOO HE WAS MY FAVORITE 😤”
We love seeing our Bachelor Nation stars react to the new show and we’re excited to keep watching the renovations unfold. The designs are looking so good already!
