When Taylor Frankie Paul was chosen by ABC for the 22nd season of «The Bachelor», - opinions on social media were divided. Some were thrilled that the star of «The Secret Life of the American Teenager» got a chance to find love, while others criticized the network for selecting someone outside of «Bachelor Nation». However, this reality star faced a new problem: an investigation into domestic violence. This issue came to light just days before the scheduled premiere of the new season of «The Bachelor». So, did ABC cancel the show, or will it still air on Sunday, March 22?
As of now, ABC has not officially confirmed the cancellation of the season with Taylor. As of the time of publication, the 22nd season is still scheduled to air on Sunday, March 22.
U.S. Sun reported that canceling the season would be impractical due to high production costs.
A source close to the show told the publication earlier this month that «for now», - the show «is still going on because it would cost [Disney] millions of dollars to delay it».
«Even if they have to incur the costs of airing it, it will be much more expensive than not airing it at all», - the insider explained. «They don’t have a Plan B; this is an unprecedented situation where a host makes such a serious mistake, so there is no backup plan».
Nevertheless, the source claims that the «Bachelor» executives are «furious with Taylor».
«Not only because of the bad image, but also because it’s clear that she won’t find her happiness, as she still has issues with Dakota, so this is a complete mess», - the insider added.
Yes. As mentioned, Disney—the parent company of ABC—is continuing preparations for the premiere of the 22nd season of «The Bachelor».
No. The 22nd season of «The Bachelor» is still scheduled to premiere on Hulu on Sunday, March 22, at 8:00 PM Eastern Time.
However, fans speculate that Taylor’s season may be pulled from airing due to her investigation into domestic violence involving her ex, Dakota Mortensen, with whom she shares a child, Ever.
Additionally, TMZ released a video on March 19 showing Taylor hitting Dakota with a chair while their child is in the room, related to a 2023 incident for which she pleaded guilty to aggravated assault.
