After two stormy heartbreaks, Nick Viall is now ready to take his chance in love for the third time. It is now his turn to break some of the women's hearts as he is being considered the next "Bachelor" for season 20.
After two seasons of joining "The Bachelorette," Nick had his heart broken twice. First, he lost over Josh Murray for Andi Dorman and then double whammied for Kaitlyn Bristowe, who rejected him over Shawn Booth. Wetpaint reports that Nick is done with "The Bachelorette" and is never coming back again, "There is zero percent chance I'll go back," he says. "I am done with 'The Bachelorette'!"
However, Nick is being tagged along with two other contenders for "The Bachelor" season 20, Ben Higgins and Ben Zorn, who were also in Bristowe's season of "The Bachelorette." Us Weekly writes that Nick is doing a lot of thinking regarding the offer.
"As far as 'The Bachelor'? I spent the past three months really just focusing on moving forward. It took a lot out of me, and all of my energy has been focused on [healing]. After last night, I think anyone would feel really lucky to be considered. It's obviously an incredible opportunity," Nick tells Us Weekly.
After PEOPLE reported that Nick bought a 3.5k emerald cut diamond ring for his supposed proposal for Bristowe just to be rejected, Nick dished out that it was really a frustrating experience, but he did not have any hard feelings for Kaitlyn and Shawn.
"It was unfortunate and it was frustrating. We looked immature and petty. But I have no animosity toward Shawn. And I didn't get to know him well, but I did get to know Kaitlyn, and I trust her judgment. No matter what I think, that says something. Shawn and I just butted heads," Nick told Wetpaint.
When he appeared on ABC for the "After the Final Rose" special, Nick told the public that there had been so much time and he already got over Bristowe. "I think the only thing I really wanted to say to Kaitlyn is that I wish her the best right, and that despite my frustrations that I had with her — about how she handled things — I don't have any ill will towards her," Nick said during a conversation with host Chris Harrison, as per Us Weekly.
"The Bachelor" Season 20 is set to take off in 2016.
