We have good news for Bachelor Nation fans who want to see Tyler Cameron take on The Bachelor role.
No, we’re not confirming that he’s been cast, but he hasn’t ruled out the possibility.
Tyler is one of the most popular Bachelorette alums, having first been introduced on Hannah Brown’s season.
He came in second place after Hannah chose Jed Wyatt. And while the two ended their engagement soon after, Tyler and Hannah didn’t rekindle the romance we saw on the show.
After her season ended, he wasn’t ready to take on the top role, so his best friend, Matt James, starred on the dating series instead.
But that hasn’t stopped fans from wanting to see him look for love on The Bachelor.
And, according to Tyler, it hasn’t stopped ABC from asking him either.

Austin, TX – The Red Carpet traditions at SXSW take on a different intensity, and the cast and production crew of “Magic City: An American Fantasy” walked the walk on March 12th, 2024. The documentary series is about a famous strip club in Atlanta that became a hangout for celebrities. One of the narrators in the doc is Atlanta’s own Killer Mike, and he was there.
In 1985, phone salesman Michael Barney — friends call him Mr. Magic — puts his slick-talking gift to work, opening a small strip club in Atlanta. He plays DJ, bartender, and bouncer while his only dancer separates men from their money. But soon, the celebrities arrive. Athletes from Michael Jordan to Shaquille O’Neal clamber to the club, DC The Brain Supreme mints an iconic hit record from the DJ booth, and Outkast tests songs by watching the girls dance.

The Bachelor producers froze Saturday when asked at the Television Critics Association’s winter press tour about why the franchise seemingly has a hard time handling racial issues.
During a panel featuring showrunners from Jeopardy, Dancing With the Stars and Shark Tank, NPR’s Eric Deggans polled Bachelor producing trio Jason Ehrlich, Claire Freeland (both newcomers) and franchise veteran Bennett Graebner about why former star Rachel Lindsay and Matt James were both critical about how the Warners-produced franchise talks about race.
Freeland, who joined the Warner Bros. TV-produced Bachelor franchise in January 2023, attempted a response by saying that the show’s goal is to “represent the country” before shifting away from the question. Deggans, a respected veteran journalist and TCA member, then reiterated the question in a more direct fashion. At that point, all three producers remained mum for around 10 seconds, creating one of the more awkward moments of press tour.

The Bachelor producers were faced with a tough question about the franchise’s history of issues surrounding race during an ABC panel at the Television Critics Association’s winter press tour.
“Why does it seem like The Bachelor has such a hard time dealing with racial issues? And have you learned anything from these past scandals that have led to the departure of Chris Harrison?” Eric Deggans, a TV critics and media analyst from NPR, asked executive producers Bennett Graebner, Jason Erlich and Claire Freeland.
Freeland, who joined the franchise from The Bachelor Canada last year, took on the task of answering.
“I mean, I can speak to where we are now. Our goal is to represent the fabric of the country, not just with respect to diversity and ethnicity, but also ability, body types… I think so far we are putting our money where our mouth is,” Freeland said.

He and Amy Robach have been opening up lately about their romance and the scandal it caused after launching their podcast.

But it turns out that they received support from some unusual places.

Jess Edwards has quickly become one of the least-liked cast members on Season 28 of The Bachelor.
She has a bold personality and looks a little bit like Susie Evans, but she’s not getting any of the love that Susie did, that’s for sure!
In Week 1, Jess angered the other ladies in the mansion when she interrupted Joey for a second sit down with him, and it didn’t stop there.
She’s certainly going for what she wants and isn’t holding back, which definitely puts Jess in the spotlight and not always in the greatest of ways.
So when Jess opened up to Joey in an emotional moment, The Bachelor viewers responded, and they definitely weren’t nice.
We expect more of that response from fans as the season rolls out.

She’s certainly going for what she wants and isn’t holding back, which definitely puts Jess in the spotlight and not always in the greatest of ways.
So when Jess opened up to Joey in an emotional moment, The Bachelor viewers responded, and they definitely weren’t nice.
We expect more of that response from fans as the season rolls out.

Let’s start by saying that Joey Graziadei is a really nice guy.
He’s incredibly popular with The Bachelor viewers because he’s one of the kindest, most thoughtful, and respectful Bachelor Nation stars in a very long time.
But is he really the gold standard for men like some The Bachelor viewers are acting?
This isn’t a Joey diss by any means, but we barely know the guy and don’t know him beyond Charity Lawson’s season of The Bachelorette and now two episodes of The Bachelor.
Remember when we thought The Golden Bachelor star Gerry Turner was the most special guy on the planet?
It didn’t take long before we found out that The Golden Bachelor wasn’t so golden after all, and for what it’s worth, Joey is human, and he’s young.

Buckle up “Bachelor” nation, “The Golden Bachelor” has officially begun!
The first season of the ABC spin-off series tapped 72-year-old Gerry Turner as the franchise’s first senior leading man, courting a group of 22 women who are all over 60 years old.
Turner’s journey of love kicked off Thursday with an evening of enthusiastic introductions and intimate moments of connection, during which the women of “The Golden Bachelor” brought out cheeky jokes to woo the leading man — from April showing up with fresh eggs to indicate her youth to Theresa making an appearance in her “birthday suit.”
As the night stretched into its conclusion, it came time for Turner to select his first impression rose pick. He gave the honor to Faith, who rode into the “Bachelor” mansion on a motorcycle and later sang a song to the leading man.

“The Golden Bachelor” casting call attracted some incredible women. On Wednesday, ABC unveiled the 22 women who will be vying for Gerry Turner‘s heart on the inaugural season of its “Bachelor” spinoff series, and some remarkable women made the cut.
There’s a cageless shark diver, a triple master’s degree holder, a former NFL cheerleader, and a former Bachelor’s mom, among others. As for which lady will be able to snag Gerry’s heart, the widower — whose wife of more than four decades, Toni, died in 2017 — previously told Et what he’s looking for in a mate.
“I think the one thing I’m going to look for is that look in the eye. I’ve seen it before, and I know the feeling when it’s there,” he said. “If I see that, that’s going to be the person that I’m going to probably pursue above others.

Two days after news broke that The Bachelor creator Mike Fleiss was exiting the franchise that premiered more than two decades ago, he has responded to a report that his departure followed an investigation into racial discrimination, with Fleiss acknowledging that he could have done more to engender diversity.
Variety published a report Thursday stating that Warner Bros. Television, which is behind ABC’s long-running dating franchise, conducted the investigation after several employees lodged complaints against Fleiss that included alleged bullying. Per the report, among those involved in the investigation conducted by a third party were current producers as well as former production staffers, which led to Fleiss’ exit.
In a statement shared with The Hollywood Reporter, Fleiss did not directly address the investigation but said that he should have stepped up efforts to make the franchise more diverse. He stated that he was proud of having worked to make...

When Mike Fleiss announced he was leaving “The Bachelor” franchise earlier this week, he released a chipper statement to the media, congratulating the latest winning couple from the reality dating show that he created more than 20 years ago.
“First and foremost, congratulations are in order for Zach and Kaity. I wish them a long and happy life together,” Fleiss said, announcing his sudden departure. “I want to thank Wbtv and ABC for 21 extraordinary years. They’ve found the perfect creative team for me to entrust ‘The Bachelor’ franchise and keep this lightning in a bottle bold and moving forward. Let the journey continue.”
When Variety questioned the reasoning behind Fleiss’ exit, ABC and Warner Bros. TV, which produces “The Bachelor,” wouldn’t comment on his departure. And an individual close to Fleiss deflected, simply saying, “It’s been 21 years.”

When you’ve got the sounds of the plane, the noise from other passengers and staff, the blasting cold air, light streaming in from the windows and a cramped economy seat, sleeping seems near-impossible. While the wisdom of the internet mostly suggests weed gummies or a prescription from your doctor to help you sleep on long-haul flights, those options aren’t always available. That’s why we’ve rounded up the best sleep products for travel you can shop now. These top-rated neck pillows, blankets, and other in-flight essentials make flying not only tolerable but, dare we say, comfortable.
Plenty of these products— including nourishing skincare items, highly-rated eye masks, and noise-canceling headphones — are also useful to have once you land.
