"The Bachelor" 2017 is Nick Viall. While not everyone is pleased with ABC's decision, many are still looking forward to see if Nick will finally find the love of his life after trying his luck on the dating reality show for four times.
Before being named the prince charming for "The Bachelor" 2017, Nick was a runner-up in seasons 10 and 11 of "The Bachelorette," and he was a contestant in "Bachelor in Paradise." Now that the wheels have turned, Nick finds himself being the center of affection of women vying for his heart.
In a recent interview, "The Bachelor" 2017 Nick Viall shared that he recently spoke to last season's "The Bachelor," Ben Higgins. Nick said that Ben gave him some important advice that really helped him put things into perspective before filming the upcoming run. Nick claimed that Ben told him that if he's not lucky enough to meet the person he wants to spend the rest of his life with, he shouldn't be afraid to not get engaged, "The Bachelor" told People.
As with any contestant on the show, rumors have started to surface about Nick's real intention in accepting "The Bachelor" 2017 stint. As Celeb Dirty Laundry reported, the hopeful might not be looking for love afterall, but he's just using his TV appearances to build on his career.
While ABC has yet to release any specifics about "The Bachelor" 2017 release date as of writing, predictions are starting to circulate that the new season will most probably premiere on January 2, 2017. As Chris Harrison recently tweeted, he really believes that the new season of the dating reality show always airs on the first Monday of January.
