The Bachelor franchise has been plagued by controversy

Our Take on Grant Ellis Being Cast as the Bachelor Season 29 Lead
Grant was the perfect choice to star in the show
Based on your Bachelorette party season 21 experience, Grant was the perfect choice to star The Bachelor season 29. Not only is he ready to find the love of his life, but he also had no drama during his time with Jenn. Although many of Jenn’s other suitors, including Devin, Aaron, Erb, Thomas Nguyen, and Sam McKinney, were constantly involved in conflicts with each other, Grant put all of his focus on Jenn and building their relationship.
Furthermore, some The Bachelorette Season 21 men like runner-up Marcus Shoberg clearly weren’t ready to commit to Jenn, but Grant was. It was also frustrating to see her cast him aside for men like Sam, who clearly wasn’t there for the right reasons. It’s wonderful that Grant now has a second chance to find the love of his life during The Bachelor season 29. January 27, 2025 can’t come soon enough.
