The Bachelorette’s Peter Kraus Hints at Regrets in Cryptic Tweet

Desiree O
Sep 07, 2017

Hindsight is 20/20, as they say. After Peter Kraus’s “frustrating” exit from Rachel Lindsay’s season of The Bachelorette, many fans of the franchise were hoping to see him turn up as the next Bachelor. We now know that’s not happening — hello again, Arie Luyendyk Jr.! — and while we don’t know why, it looks like our favorite reluctant suitor might be having some regrets.

“Never let fear hold you back. Lesson learned,” Kraus tweeted Tuesday, the night before the new Bachelor was announced on Good Morning America.

Of course, we can’t say for certain what the 31-year-old Wisconsin native was referring to, but the timing of his tweet is definitely interesting. Does he regret not proposing to Lindsay on The Bachelorette? Did he turn down a chance to be the next Bachelor? We may never know.

Some people would like a little clarification, though:

Other fans are sympathetic and have been replying to his tweet with encouraging comments and reassurances that Bachelor Nation still loves him.

If he ever does get a chance to be the Bachelor, we feel pretty confident saying that viewers would be totally on board with him taking another shot at love in front of the cameras.

Have you ever let fear get in the way of an awesome opportunity? Let us know @BritandCo.

Jenn Tran Makes History As The First Asian-American Woman To Lead "The Bachelorette"

The Bachelor finale aired on Monday night, and it was FULL of shocks and surprises. While I'm still riding the engagement high of it all, it's time to get ready for a brand new crew for The Bachelorette. Here's everything we know!

SPOILER ALERT! SPOILERS AHEAD: The latest episode was heartbreaking and heartfelt, with the girls' incredible friendship bond, Daisy leaving, and Kelsey and Joey's engagement. Those two seem SO in love, and I'm just so excited for them to be together...and to see them date in the real world. When it came time for The Bachelorette announcement, they geared up the whole night for it to be Daisy. So when they sat her down and she said she wasn't ready to find love again, all of America was in shock, quickly trying to guess who it might be. Some thought it would be Maria, some thought it would be Rachel, some of us were simply on the edge of our seats.

Finally, they announced the Bachelorette would be Jenn Tran! I loved her flirty and fun personality, so I'm elated to watch her season. While we may have to wait a while for the season to air — due to Golden Bachelorette filming — we can't wait! And we have all the details on who it is and when you should expect it to hit your TV this year.

Who is Jenn Tran?

Jenn Tran is 26 years, and she was on The Bachelor's most recent season with Joey. She captured America's heart with her flirty personality and quick wit. Not only does she bring a lot to the table with her fabulous energy and inevitable charm, but she's also the first ever Asian American woman to be on The Bachelorette.

What does Jenn Tran do for a living?

Jenn Tran's currently a student who is studying to be a physicians assistant. She said that she's not giving up school for the show, but simply putting it on pause to resume when she's done. On her BacheloretteBio on the website it says, "When she's not studying, Jenn loves reading books like The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo, paddle boarding, and traveling whenever she has the chance." We love a hardworking woman, who also knows how to prioritize fun and traveling while she's at it!

How old is Jenn Tran?

Jenn turned 26 in November of 2023!

What will Jenn Tran look for in a man on "The Bachelorette"?

We got to see how fun and yet serious she can be on Joey's season of The Bachelor, so we're curious what she wants to find in her own prospective partner. On her Bachelorette Bio it says, "Jenn has had multiple serious relationships but is still looking for a man who's as reliable and thoughtful as she is." Definitely excited to see who ends up with her final rose!

When will "The Bachelorette" air?

Photo via Disney/John Fleenor

We can most likely expect a summer 2024 release date for this show, but nothing's confirmed quite yet. While we wait, we can definitely expect a fall 2024 release date of The Golden Bachelorette,according to ABC! YAY!

I'm sure we'll get more info in the coming weeks, but for now we are just SO excited for Jenn and will be eagerly waiting to hear about her continued journey to find love! Congratulations!

Ex-Golden Bachelor Contestants Kathy And Susan Have An Exciting Podcast Coming

The Golden Bachelorette has officially been greenlit to be released this fall!

ABC announced the news at the Television Critics Association’s winter press tour, not long after The Golden Bachelorlovebirds, Gerry and Theresa, tied the knot. This will be the first season of The Bachelor spinoff oriented towards a single senior woman!

We had so much fun watching the very first installment of The Golden Bachelor, that we just can’t wait to see the roles reversed for The Golden Bachelorette. The hype is very real!

Here’s everything we know about the upcoming TV show, including casting announcements and premiere date details.

Who is the Golden Bachelorette?

Our Golden Bachelorette has not been announced just yet. This means the possibilities for casting are endless, though we’d really like to see some of the women from The Golden Bachelor lead the new spinoff – Faith and Leslie in particular, who made it to the top 3. At this point, it could be anyone!

Craig Erwich, the president of Disney Television Group, announced the debut of The Golden Bachelorette at the Television Critics Association’s winter press tour earlier this month. Speaking with Glamour, Erwich acknowledged just how challenging casting for the show will be:

“It's a quality problem to have… because that means the first one worked,” Erwich said. “It's fun. It's our job, and it is fun to think about all the different permutations and what different shows look like with different contestants. We're not there yet, but it's an exciting process.”

Who will be part of "The Golden Bachelorette"?

As mentioned before, there haven't been any official casting announcements for The Golden Bachelorette yet. What we do know is that the season will start off with one senior woman (at least 60 years old) and 22 senior men looking to steal the gal’s heart and lock down an everlasting love by the end of it. ❤️

When will "The Golden Bachelorette" air?

ABC noted that The Golden Bachelorette will air in fall 2024. Keep checking back here for the official date and time of the season 1 premiere!

Impatient for The Golden Bachelorette to air? You can still get your fix of love, laughs, and a little bit of drama very soon – ABC also announced that a new season of The Bachelorette is coming in summer 2024!

How can I watch "The Golden Bachelorette"?

According to ABC, The Golden Bachelorette will air on ABC and be available to stream on Hulu the following day. Historically, the different installments of The Bachelor have aired on Thursdays at 8pm ET.

What is the cast of "The Golden Bachelor" up to now?

It just so happens that our most beloved contestants from The Golden Bachelor, Kathy and Susan, are launching a new podcast, People reports. The podcast will be titled Bachelor Happy Hour: Golden Hour, with the first episode dropping March 28, 2024!

The duo will be shedding light on and providing “some real wisdom about relationships, heartbreak and even sex" through the show. We're also excited to hear from previous Bachelor Nation cast members as the podcast series continues!

The pair definitely showed some real chemistry during the first-ever golden Bachelor, so the podcast is sure to be a grand time.

“We can finish each other's sentences,” Susan told PhillyVoice about Kathy earlier this month, hinting at the new co-hosted podcast. “We're night and day, but yet we're the same in a sense. We just roll off each other, and it's so easy.”

As far as the winners of The Golden Bachelor, Gerry and Theresa, they are happily enjoying married life and mingling with each other's families. They share tons of pics on their Instagram feeds, and we love to see it!

How successful was "The Golden Bachelor"?

According to Variety, the first installment of The Golden Bachelor reached about 43.4 million viewers, making it ABC’s most-watched unscripted premiere on Hulu. The finale amassed 6.1 million viewers, deeming it the biggest episode in Bachelor history in nearly 3 years.
