The Bachelorette took a hiatus in 2025 to make room for Bachelor in Paradise and The Golden Bachelor, and while ABC has not confirmed plans for the future of the show, fans are hopeful that it will make a return in the future. There are plenty of eligible ladies from the franchise who could return as the lead for Season 22, but who will it be?
