The man we all figured would win The Bachelorette—after he scored the first impression rose and a smooch on night one—has won the heart of Becca Kufrin. Garrett Yrigoyen is Kufrin’s new fiancé, in what turned out to be one of the most predictable Bachelorette seasons in history.
Former Bachelor contestant Bekah Martinez—the only cast member who made Arie’s season bearable—has accused Leandro “Leo” Dottavio from the most recent season of the Bachelorette, of sexual harassment.
ABC has announced that it’s pulling the second episode of its Bachelor-esque reality show The Proposal, after a woman accused one of its contestants of setting up a sexual assault.
Arie Luyendyk Jr. is easily the world’s most-hated Bachelor, after dumping his fiancée Becca Kufrin in the most unnecessarily extended breakup The Bachelor has ever subjected viewers to. And frankly, he thinks that’s really unfair.
After three years of “will they or won’t they,” Ashley Iaconetti and Jared Haibon have finally said yes to love’s warm embrace. Their new coupledom was announced in a gushing 45-minute video interview that premiered exclusively on People.com. If you don’t know who Ashley Iaconetti and Jared Haibon are, that’s fine,…
From the makers of The Bachelor, a reality show in which single people compete to get married, comes a new show about the extremely sweet and goofy act of proposing to another person—a show called The Proposal.
Last night, The Bachelor managed to rob two additional hours from my life with an extra “After the Final Rose” episode. This happened because on Monday night, ABC decided it would be better to show us a woman sobbing for 30 minutes straight.
This season of The Bachelor has been, in a word, terrible. I’m delivering that information mostly secondhand, because after two episodes with Arie, I simply could not continue. He has the personality of a damp piece of wood; the physical grace of a large, confused bird; and his face is too many different colors. He…
In May 2014, I wrote a piece about Amy Kaufman, an entertainment reporter for the Los Angeles Times who’d been uninvited by ABC from press calls and events for The Bachelor because the network disliked the tone of her coverage about the show. The choice to cut Kaufman off was an odd one. As a longtime fan of the…
A new excerpt from Los Angeles Times staff writer Amy Kaufman’s forthcoming new book, Bachelor Nation: Inside the World of America’s Favorite Guilty Pleasure, gives us some juicy, somewhat depressing details about the show’s casting process.
When contestant Bekah Martinez left The Bachelor this November, she headed up to a friend’s weed farm in the mountains for some much needed R&R. Unfortunately, she was also without phone service, leading her mother to file a missing person report. That Martinez was technically a missing person didn’t become common…
For me, at least, most seasons of The Bachelor begin with a whimper. It’s hard to tell the contestants apart or care about them at all (particularly when four of them are named Lauren), The Bachelor in his human form tends to be a hollowed-out tree trunk of a person, and the emotional reactions and inter-house…
Former Bachelor and Bachelorette producer Becky Steenhoek filed a complaint in Los Angeles Monday alleging that she was repeatedly asked questions about her sex life while working on the show.
Interesting news, everybody: the next Bachelor will not be hot, boring Peter, or hot, immature Dean, or anybody from a recent season of The Bachelorette—instead, it’s Arie Luyendyk Jr., a 35-year-old racecar driver from Scottsdale, Arizona who was a runner-up on Emily Maynard’s season a whopping five years ago. Okay!
Adorable Bachelorette contestant Dean Unglert, a favorite among fans with eyes, is not in the running to become the next Bachelor.
Shattering (for the first time, probably) the illusion that ABC’s The Bachelor is the true love factory it claims to be, Nick Viall, star of the series’ 21st season, and his chosen bride Vanessa Grimaldi have parted ways five months after their proposal episode aired on ABC.
A blessed thing happened Thursday: Jade Roper and Tanner Tolbert, two people who defied the odds and found actual love and happiness on Bachelor in Paradise, welcomed a beautiful baby into this miserable old world. The two shared the happy news on Instagram, where they revealed her sex (“girl”), health (“perfect”),…
Today, we know whether Robert Pattinson will masturbate a dog: no.
In the first few minutes of the season premiere, Bachelor in Paradise will address the alleged sexual encounter that led to a production halt, and that includes footage of the contestants involved.
