Bachelorette 18 - Michelle Young - General Discussion - *Sleuthing Spoilers*

(BACHELORETTE HOST UPDATE): Kaitlyn and Tayshia will be returning to co-host Michelle’s season of the “Bachelorette” when it begins filming later this month. I’ll have some filming updates, locations, and timelines in my column on Tuesday.

Have to say I'm super surprised at the guys.  Quite a few with "real", impressive jobs, and tidbits which make me interested in hearing more.  Also, such a handsome group, although that's not the main criteria.  Third season in a row I've been impressed with the casting.  Let's hope these men are the real deal and that this group keeps the momentum of the past several seasons.  Happy for Michelle and hope her person is among them.

[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] I agree as well on the job titles and careers these group of men have. Realistic sustainable careers honestly and one that can surely provide for a future family. A breath of fresh air for sure over the usual models and online marketers.

Probably because Michelle herself has a real job…

you are so right. I would suspect that Michelle herself probably made it clear to the execs that she wants real men with real careers and not the ones who want to be social media stars.

I am so happy for Michelle now that I have seen the list of contestants. The Majority of the men even the young gents, seem to have legitimate careers that secures a pretty tight financial future. Plus they are some really good-looking, sexy guys!! What a lucky woman to be surrounded by men who don't just Model and/or shill for a living.

Any word on Bachelor Alum traveling to host dates this season? They’ve be awfully quiet. We know Franco will be there, !

I would like to see some of the women Michelle hung out with on Matt’s season come to host a date. They are BN alumni she formed an actual bond with and would be a nice surprise for her.

Wonder if Katie and her F1 TBD will make an group date appearance?

[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] You’re right. I hope they do bring on some of her friends from the show.

I have 2 questions: Besides Blake, how was it determined that there were late arrivals/intruders? I really hope there aren’t any this season, but if so, how would we know?
2. I know there have been occasions where the Lead would visit family on a date prior to HTD. I’m thinking of Arie, but I feel like someone else did it as well. Anyway, was there any significance to who was chosen for that date to meet friends/family as in top 4 or anything?
