Who will star as The Bachelor in 2022? ABC hasn’t given any definitive answers regarding who will take the reigns and hope to find love. But show creator Mike Fleiss left a clue on Twitter — and it has fans wondering about The Bachelor spoilers and what Reality Steve might reveal soon.

First, Fleiss clued fans in that an announcement might come via Bachelor in Paradise. “Waiting for final approval for the major announcement … Who will be your next #TheBachelor??? #BachelorInParadise,” Fleiss tweeted on Aug. 16, 2021.

Then, on Aug. 17, Fleiss tweeted, “Don’t want to steal the thunder from my man @DavidSpade! Will announce your new #TheBachelor in the next few days ….”

On the same day, Fleiss tweeted, “All I can tell you right now is that #BachelorNation will be very happy!” Fleiss finally tweeted on Aug. 17, 2021. “Well, maybe not everybody ….”

‘The Bachelor’ Reality Steve spoilers: Here’s who Reality Steve reports will be the next lead

After so many hints, who will star as The Bachelor in 2022? According to The Bachelor Reality Steve spoilers, it seems Greg Grippo, the center of a ton of controversy on Katie’s Bachelorette season, will return as the lead.

“(SPOILER): What I’ve been hearing the past 5 days or so regarding the next Bachelor [is] this … been told it’s going to be Greg,” Reality Steve tweeted on Aug. 19, 2021. “Obviously, it’s never ‘official’ until ABC announces it (whenever that may be), but at this point, I would be very surprised if it’s not him.”

So, why will production choose Greg? According to Reality Steve, ABC wants a lead people will talk about. “He’s a polarizing figure that will have people talking, which is what they want,” he tweeted. “But by all accounts and everything I’m being told, he’s your next Bachelor, so, I guess let’s get the hot take machine fired up. Because here they come in full force.”

When is ‘The Bachelor’ 2022 premiere date?

When can fans get to see The Bachelor 2022 premiere? The Bachelor‘s Reality Steve has additional spoilers regarding a premiere date, too. Back in June 2021, Steve announced fans should “get ready for nine straight months of Bachelor programming,” which started with Katie’s season. After Katie’s season, BIP premiered, and Michelle Young’s season will premiere in October.

” … Then seemingly The Bachelor on the first Monday of January 2022 like it’s always been,” he tweeted. “Buckle up.”

We look forward to hearing more about the next potential lead as well as more about Michelle’s season, which is coming soon. And, of course, if Greg really does become the next lead, we’d love to know Katie’s thoughts.

ABC did not return a request for comment regarding rumors about The Bachelor by the time of publication.
