franchise has . , eliminated Grant on the Monday, August 12 episode as well as Sam . He was the first of the contestants that admitted to Jenn that he was falling in love with her but it looked like her connection to Devin, Marcus, Jeremy and Jonathon were much stronger and now they're headed for hometowns.
The franchise made the Bachelor announcement on Monday on social media after the episode aired, with fans confused as to why they decided to announce it so early. Usually, the announcement of a new Bachelor or Bachelorette is announced during the After the Final Rose special. The video showed four words that read: "The next Bachelor is.
.." with a countdown starting at the number three.
It then played a video of Grant running and moments on the Bachelorette. Many expressed their disappointment with not only how early they announced it but that it was a spoiler for some who watch the show on Hulu. One person under the comments wrote: "This is really early to be announcing the next bachelor, isn't it? Usually it's done at the finale?" Another person wrote: "Omg this is a weird and early way of doing it!!!!! But so glad it’s him.
He was def one of my favs!!! Go Grant go!!!" A third person wrote: "Spoiler alert!! They usually aren't announced until After the Rose...
. ?" A fourth wrote: "I haven’t even watched the episode tonight. Us Hulu watchers can’t see it until tomorrow.
So thanks for the spoiler." Even though there was some negative feedback, there was some positivity and excitement among fans. One person wrote: "HE DESERVES TO FIND LOVE!!!!" Another person wrote: "I’m sooooo okay with this!! Ugh I love him for myself but he’s going to be a great bachelor.
Can’t wait for his season." A third wrote: "The moment I saw this guy’s photo when they were announcing the cast for this season, I saw bachelor ridden all over him!!!" Season 28 bachelor, Joey Graziadei, who got engaged to Kelsey Anderson, congratulated Grant under the post and said he was " excited to see his journey unfold.".
