The Bachelor Season 26 is set to start filming this week, and that means plenty of details are coming out about the season– both official and unofficial.

ABC has officially confirmed the cast of 33 women set to compete in the upcoming season.

However, the franchise hasn’t even made any official announcements about who The Bachelor will be.

Plenty of spoilers have surfaced about the Bachelor lead being a contestant from Michelle Young’s season of The Bachelorette.

Her season hasn’t even premiered yet, and this is likely the reason why the franchise isn’t spilling who The Bachelor lead is.

The official Bachelor Facebook page has uploaded pictures, names, and hometowns of the women set to appear on The Bachelor Season 26.

Most of the contestants are from the United States. However, there is one international contestant.

Eliza I. is from Berlin, Germany.

There are a few contestants that have similar hometowns. Sometimes this leads to the contestants knowing each other from before the show and leads to drama.

Serene R. and Sierra J., meanwhile, are both from Oklahoma City, OK.

The age range of the women is a neat 10 years, from 23-33.

Meanwhile, Jane P. from California is 33 years old.

However, she is joined by Mara A. from New Jersey, Kate G. from Tennessee, Elizabeth C. from Colorado, and Kira M. from North Carolina who are 32.
