What do spoilers suggest for Christina on this season of ‘The Bachelor’ with Zach Shallcross?

As always, we turn to spoiler guru Reality Steve to give us an idea of how everything goes down during this season of The Bachelor. Christina made Reality Steve’s list of interesting limo entrances because she arrives to meet Zach on a party bus.

According to the reality TV blogger, Christina gets the first one-on-one date of the season. She and Zach go on a date at the Anaheim Hills golf course. For dinner, they eat at the Orange County Mining Company. She receives a rose from Zach on the date.

However, it doesn’t look like Christina’s good luck lasts very long. Reality Steve wrote in November, “Her elimination a week after getting a rose I believe had to do with her behavior at the cocktail party. Heard she was acting erratic and might’ve been drinking too much.”

However, you’ll have to watch for yourself to see how it all plays out. Catch The Bachelor premiere on Jan. 23 on ABC. Stay tuned to Showbiz Cheat Sheet for all of your updates regarding this season of The Bachelor with Zach Shallcross.
