Grant Ellis will take the lead on season 29 of The Bachelor
Grant is a beloved member of Bachelor Nation
Grant Ellis will star The Bachelor season 29 starting January 27, 2025. He first stole hearts when he appeared on Jenn Tran's show Bachelorette party season in 2024, but she eliminated it just before her hometown dates. However, it was no surprise when Grant was cast in the lead role of The Bachelor season 29 because he knew exactly what he wanted - to be a husband and father - and everyone loved him so much.
Producers announced Grant as single before Jenn's season even finished airing because they wanted to give women the opportunity to apply to be on the show specifically for him.. Another interesting aspect of the show is that many of Grant's competitors will appear on Bachelor in Paradiseand it's almost certain that one of them will be the next Bachelorette.
Grant Bachelor season follows Joey Graziadei's beautiful season, during which he got engaged to Kelsey Anderson. Joey was the perfect Bachelor, so Grant has big shoes to fill, but he has the potential to surpass Joey and become the best Bachelor of all time. The preview for The Bachelor Season 29 has already teased plenty of romance and drama. Grant is sensitive, kind, funny, and caring, and it will be wonderful to see him find his happily ever after..

Bachelor In Paradise Will Make A Hopefully Triumphant Return
The show will return after a one-year hiatus
After a one-year hiatus, Bachelor in Paradise season 10 will air in 2025hopefully making a triumphant return after two failed seasons. It was good that the show took a break in 2024, as it allowed the producers to re-evaluate some of the things that caused the show to fail in seasons 8 and 9, after such a successful season 7, which led to Joe Amabile and Serena's wedding Pitt, Kenny Braasch and Mari Pepin, Thomas Jacobs and Becca Kufrin, and Noah Erb and Abigail Heringer. Additionally, Chris Conran and Alana Milne from that season are still engaged.
However, every couple from seasons 8 and 9 has split, whether they left the show engaged or dating. This could have happened because of all the producer interference, including Season 8's Split House twist, in which the couples were separated, and Season 9's Truth Box, Bonfire of Truth, and Comedy Roast, which caused so much manufactured drama between the competitors. Hopefully the producers will leave these things behind for Bachelor in Paradise Season 10, and get back to the heart of the show, which is allowing the contestants to really get to know each other without any interference.
Bachelor in Paradise season 10 will feature previous contestantsincluding those who have never appeared on Joey's show Bachelor season, Jenn Bachelorette party season (including the previously announced Jonathon Johnson and Hakeen Moulton), Grant's Bachelor next season and contestants Bachelorette party season 22. It will be refreshing to see some new faces at the beach and hopefully Bachelor in Paradise season 10 will be a huge success.

Jenn Tran's season ended in disaster
Jenn Tran made history as the first Asian American Bachelor leader of the franchise show. There were high expectations for his season, but things quickly went south.

After Jenn's disastrous season, expectations are very low for The Bachelorette season 22. However, it's possible the show could end on a fairytale love story like Charity and Dotun's season and restore fans' faith in the process. Although the leadership of The Bachelorette season 22 has not yet been revealed because it will likely come from Grant's season, there is hope that it will redeem the show.

Many Golden Bachelor Fans expected Leslie Fhima to be cast in the show because she is a dancer in real life, but that didn't happen. However, that doesn't mean Leslie won't appear in a future season, making history as the first Golden franchise competitor, especially since she is so beloved by Bachelor Nation. There are so many possible candidates to compete DWTSincluding some who Bachelor The nation hasn't even met in future seasons yet.
