Now, Michelle Young is going from being the runner-up of Matt James’ season of The Bachelor to standing as the latest Bachelorette. This means that Bachelor Nation will have another 30 men to thirst over and to argue about whether they are there for the “right reasons” or not.
When Season 18 starts this fall, among the men Young will have to choose from include football player Bryan Witzmann, basketball player Joe Coleman and Clint Eastwood’s grandson.
Here’s when Bachelorette fans will be able to watch Young’s romantic drama with these men, and who else will be battling out for her heart.
When Does ‘The Bachelorette’ Season 18 Start?
The premiere of the latest season is set to air on Tuesday, October 19 at 8 p.m. ET / 7 p.m. CT on ABC. The remaining episodes will air in that slot weekly on Tuesdays.
For viewers who want to watch the new season online, episodes come to Hulu on Wednesday morning. Last season, episodes came to the streamer at 5 a.m. ET, and the new episodes are expected to suit.
