SPOILER ALERT, SPOILER ALERT, SPOILER ALERT!!!!
I am so excited that the Bachelorette came back on this week! You all know that I am a huge “bach” fan. Clare Crawley is the leading lady of red this season and wow is it wild already.
There were swirling rumors this summer that Clare was leaving the season early because she found love fast. Tayshia Addmas is reportedly stepping in for in what seems to be about three to four episodes. Personally, I wanted Tayshia from the beginning to be the Bachelorette. She is a fan favorite and a more diverse candidate.
Clare is a seasoned pro when it comes to the Bachelor franchise. She was on the infamous Juan Pablo’s season, Bachelor in Paradise twice and was engaged on Bachelor Winter Games. It was an understatement that she was ready to find love.
Clare is 39 years old and the oldest bachelorette, and I think she let us know she was 39 a billion times. I also think that she played on the fact that this was during COVID-19. She made it seem like she was the only one suffering from the pandemic. All contestants had to get tested and quarantine for 14 days on the resort where the show was being filmed.
My thoughts on her dress… Well… I think it was a prom dress circa 2011. It looked like a Sherri Hill classic. Clare is a beautiful girl, but I think the stylists on the show could step it up. The men compared from this season compared to Hannah B’s season are unmatched. You cannot replace Tyler C or Mike Johnson.
My favorites from the night were Eazy, Brandon, Blake and Dale. Eazy is the perfect candidate for paradise, WOW. After Clare met Dale, she said she met her future husband. I can understand because he is a tall glass of water. It seems like they both genuinely have a connection to potentially end the show early.
Overall, an eventful first episode and I cannot wait for the season!
