The Bachelorette is an American dating reality television series created for ABC by Mike Fleiss. It was originally hosted by Chris Harrison, and is now hosted by Jesse Palmer and is a spin-off of The Bachelor. The series is produced by Next Entertainment and Warner Horizon Television, and revolves around a single bachelorette who starts with a pool of romantic interests from whom she is expected to select a husband. During the course of the season, the bachelorette eliminates candidates, culminating in a marriage proposal from her final selection. The participants travel to romantic and exotic locations for their adventures, and the conflicts in the series, both internal and external, stem from the elimination-style format of the show. In September 2025, ABC renewed the series for a twenty-second season which was set to premiere on March 22, 2026, however, it was pulled out from the schedule three days before due to air. The twenty-first season is the most recent aired season in the series.
