The Bachelor season 28 teaser
The Bachelor returned on Monday (22 January), with former Bachelorette contestant Joey Graziadei returning for his second chance at love.
Joey was announced as the next Bachelor during The Bachelorette’s season 20 finale, where he finished in second place.
Season 28 welcomed back host Jesse Palmer, who took over from Chris Harrison in 2021 after he was fired due to controversial comments he made in an Extra interview.
The new season – which saw 32 women entering the Bachelor mansion, all competing for roses and, ultimately, Joey’s heart – comes off the heels of the wildly successful Golden Bachelor spin-off. In that series, the franchises’ first septuagenarian, Gerry Turner, found his second chance at love with his new wife Theresa Nist. The two recently tied the knot on live television.
US viewers will be able to tune into the new episodes of The Bachelor on Mondays on ABC at 5pm PT/8pm ET.
Great summary. If you know, you know. If you missed the live broadcast of The Bachelor season 28 premiere, US viewers can watch it on Hulu on Tuesday.

This season’s contestants were quite lowkey in their entrances. Some women, however, decided to go all-out.
Jenn, 25, skidded in in a go-kart.
Daisy, 25, drove up in a Christmas tree truck.
Erika, 25, and Joey shared their first dance after she arrived with a boom box and some tunes.

The Bachelor sister contestants explain decision to keep their relationship secret
Philadelphia natives Lauren, 28, and Allison, 26, made their entrances during the premiere episode, which aired on Monday (22 January), directly telling the cameras that they’ll be keeping their relationship a secret from Joey and the other contestants for at least a little while.
Although, their secret didn’t last long, as they spillt the beans in the second hour of the premiere.

Who is Daisy, the early Bachelor fan-favourite?
25-year-old Daisy is from Becker, Minnesota. Having grown up in a big, loving family with parents whose 30-plus-year marriage has been the blueprint for the kind of love she’s looking for, the account executive is ready to find a man who’s loyal, adventurous and family-oriented.
During the premiere episode, viewers learnt that Daisy lost a majority of her hearing and recently received a cochlear implant a couple of years ago.
She drove up in a pick-up truck with a Christmas tree in the boot, a reference to her childhood growing up on a Christmas tree farm.
