Clayton Echard sends frontrunner home

Serene Russell made it to Hometown Dates but she won’t get time alone with Clayton Echard in the fantasy suites. The Bachelor contestant thought to be a frontrunner was sent home on the latest episode of the reality dating competition.

With Serene out of the picture, that leaves just three women left – Gabby, Susie, and Rachel. Bachelor head honcho Mike Fleiss teased on Twitter that no one will be able to predict how the season ends.

However, it’s likely that Bachelor Nation fans haven’t seen the last of Serene, or her family.

Bachelorette contestant has hots for Serene?

Many alums from the franchise post live viewing reactions on their social media. One such alum is Michelle Young’s former suitor Brandon Jones, who also competed on Season 18 alongside Clayton.

Unlike Clayton, who was eliminated rather early on, Brandon made it all the way to the final two. Michelle chose Nayte Olukoya, who proposed to the schoolteacher during the season finale. They are still together but have slowed down their next move.

As for Brandon, he seems to have a slight crush on Serene, or so fans think. His reaction to her elimination was to give the camera a sly smile, though he later deleted the video. You can watch it here on Reddit.

Bachelor Nation fans react to possible pairing

Was Brandon really crushing on Serene, or was he simply trolling Clayton? The two struck up a friendship during their time together on The Bachelorette.

Regardless of his intentions, that ship has sailed. As in, Bachelor Nation fans are now shipping a Brandon/Serene romance. And they have the perfect backdrop for the new romance.

ABC has yet to confirm Season 8 of Bachelor in Paradise, but fans think that would be the perfect place for Serene and Brandon to fall in love.

Wells Adams is on board to serve as the bartender on the spinoff. He previously named Clayton’s contestants Salley and Shanae as his dream BIP contestants. But he would surely welcome Serene and Brandon as well.
