The Bachelor

The Bachelor star Matt James has seemingly confirmed that he's engaged at the end of his journey. To whom?

That's the only question that matters right now.

Matt James has a very handsome face.

But he put it aside from a few and put on his game face Monday night on The Bachelor, responding to complaints about a toxic, bully-laden environment on Season 25.

Brittany Galvin made her presence immediately felt on The Bachelor this week.

Not necessarily through her own words or actions, either.

All hail the Queen?

Not quite.

The Bachelor opened on Monday night by talking about a contestant who left the show, Sarah Trott.

But the latest installment of this beloved ABC franchise didn't waste much time in then shifting its focus to a contestant who just arrived on the show.

As you very likely read about prior to Monday night's episode of The Bachelor, five new women joined the show this week.

But first, however?

Over the course of her brief run thus far on The Bachelor, Victoria Larson has had quite a few run-ins with the other women competing for the affections of Matt James.

But here's the thing, segue-wise:

Sarah Trott left Bachelor Nation in shock on Monday night.

In actuality, Sarah Trott left Bachelor Nation in shock on back-to-back Monday nights.

Dale Moss has confirmed that the final chapter of his whirlwind love story has come to an end.

Following indications that Moss and Clare Crawley had chosen to take time apart, the handsome former Bachelorette suitor has shared a message on Instagram.

They may look content on social media.

They may have fallen in love after having only known each other for a few weeks.

To each her own, right?

Or, to be more specific when it comes to this week's brand new and emotional episode of The Bachelor:

Victoria Larson has not made very many fans throughout her brief run on The Bachelor.

It's not hard to understand why, based on her obnoxious attitude and overall demeanor.

While we tend to focus on the drama and the messy breakups, it's worth noting that quite a few couples have found love on The Bachelor and The Bachelorette.

And at first, there was reason to be hopeful that Dale Moss and Clare Crawley would be one of those couples.

The Bachelor ended in dramatic fashion this week.

Just as Matt James was prepared to conclude his Rose Ceremony and settle on the women that would remain the competition...

Every contestant on Matt James' season of The Bachelor is hoping for a fairy tale ending.

So perhaps it's fitting that there's an evil queen standing in their way.

We're just a couple of weeks into his season, but it already seems like Matt James could easily wind up earning the title of most-beloved Bachelor in the history of the franchise.

(One way he could seal the deal is by giving his final rose to Abigail Heringer Just sayin'!)

Reality sunk in for Matt James on Monday night.

"It's hard to fathom that one of those women who I handed a rose out to last night could be my wife," The Bachelor lead said early on this week's revealing episode, adding;

Matt James made history this past Monday night as the first-ever Black man to anchor The Bachelor.

Then, a short time later, he made history once again.

Well, Matt James' season of The Bachelor may have just begun, but it seems that its already encountered its first scandal.

If you caught Matt's first episode, you may have noticed that he seemed to hit off with Rachael Kirkconnell, a 24-year-old graphic designer originally from Cumming, Georgia.
