On Monday, August 1st, the bachelorette, Joelle a.k.a. Jojo Fletcher will choose her fiancé in what was a whirlwind of a season. First, lets talk about our final suitors.
Suitors
Jordan Rodgers
Jordan is a former pro-quarterback pursuing a career in broadcasting. Jordan has been the front runner from the very beginning, Jojo gave Jordan the elusive first impression rose. On the previous season on the bachelorette, Kaitlyn Bristowe chose to become engaged to the man she gave her first impression rose to, Shawn. There has been some turmoil surrounding Jordan. On the show, it has been addressed that his family is estranged from his older brother. His older brother just happens to be Green Bay Packers QB, Aaron Rodger. #Cheeseheads4lyfe It has also been reported by multiple media sources that Jordan entered the show for fame and nothing more. It has also been reported that Jordan and Jojo had been in contact before the show started, but no one seems to know or really care.
Robby Hayes
Then we have Robby... also a former pro-athlete, this time a swimmer. Although Robby did not stand out in the first few episodes, as the season went on, it was clear he had a connection with Jojo. Much like Jordan, there has been turmoil surrounding Robby as well. Before joining the bachelorette, Robby was in an on-and-off relationship that was rumored to come to a final end because he wanted to be on the bachelorette. This issue was addressed during Jojo and Robbys hometown date, where he strongly denied breaking it off to join the show, but instead that it had run its course.
My Pick: Jordan
They both are probably only in it for fame, but what grown adult goes by the name Robby? Really?
Okay, to the more important part, who is the next bachelor... we have a few options from Jojo's season.
The Bachelor Options
1. The Runner Up
Not likely judging from the past seasons. And neither these guys deserve it so hopefully this is a no go.
2. Luke Pell
Luke was eliminated after hometown dates. Jojo stated that he hadn't told her he loved her and that made her apprehensive about the relationship. Luke is a war veteran who spent 9 years in the military. He's a country boy who is currently pursuing a music career in Nashville. The Luke that America has come to know and love is a hard-working, honest, passionate guy who really just wants to open up and find the one.
3. Chase McNary
Chase made it to the final 3, only for Jojo to take him to the fantasy suite, convince him to tell her he loves her, and then tells him she doesn't feel the same. Chase is a medical sales representative from Denver. Chase seemed to be in the background for majority of the season, but in all that time he was establishing a strong relationship with Jojo. Towards the end, the audience got to see more of the sweet, reserved, and genuine side of Chase.
My Pick: Luke Pell
Most likely due to my small town values and respect for his service. Luke is a genuine choice who deserves to be happy. Chase deserves that as well, so either would be a good choice and I will definitely be tuning in no matter who ABC chooses.
