Is the next guy to hand out the roses in "The Bachelor" season 20 a toss between Ben Higgins and Nick Viall?
Multiple sources have opposing claims about who the next Bachelor will be. Some say that Ben H. will most likely succeed the spot left by season 19's Chris Soules, while others claim that the two-time runner up Nick Viall will return once again to the dating reality show scene to prove that he will not stop finding his one true love.
Reports from Reality Steve are persistent in claiming that Ben H. is going to be the Bachelor in season 20. The prolific leak source for "The Bachelor/ The Bachelorette" franchise has been writing about it for weeks, and it seems like the other entertainment sites are starting to pick up the speculations.
US Weekly recently said that the software salesman from Warsaw, Indiana declined a latest job promotion to clear his schedule for his future in the long-running dating reality show. The report also claimed that he will no longer pursue his blooming friendship with "Bachelor in Paradise" season 2 and former "The Bachelor" season 14 star Tenley Molzahn to keep his love life options open for the show.
Meanwhile, a podcast interview of Huffington Post with Nick revealed that the 34-year-old Wisconsin native will "seriously consider" it if ABC will offer him the show. He believes that being given the chance to find love through the show will be a great opportunity. He also believes that his experiences in the past made him a perfect fit to become the next Bachelor.
"As a 34-year-old, having dated and having had relationships not work out, you learn about yourself. You learn about what you want [...] and I feel fortunate to be in a position in my life where I know who I am and I'm very comfortable in my own skin and I know what I'm looking for," Viall said.
ABC has yet to make a formal announcement about who will be the gentleman in the center of "The Bachelor" season 20, and it is expected to be revealed before the filming for the upcoming season begins sometime in September.
