‘Bachelorette’ Producers Address Rodent Infestation At Mansion
The search for love in the most dramatic and romanticized way possible is a cornerstone of the popular reality TV show The Bachelorette. This season, however, has already taken an unexpected turn. Producers have been forced to address an issue that has nothing to do with roses, dates, or catty contestant conflicts: a rodent infestation at the mansion. Yes, you read that right – rodents.
Bachelorette Producers Address Rodent Infestation
It seems that the luxurious digs where our Bachelorette and her suitors reside are not as pristine as they appear on TV. Fans expect to see literal crabs on the beach on Bachelor In Paradise. but rodents in the Bachelor mansion?
Jenn Tran’s season of The Bachelorette isn’t filming at the famed mansion. Season 21 was filmed at the Hummingbird Nest Ranch in southern California.
The new season kicked off on July 8 with a lot of drama, but viewers were stunned to see two rats scurrying across the floor when suitor Sam Nejad, who has never had a girlfriend, by the way, was introducing himself to Jenn.
The rat incident caused such a ruckus on social media that the producers had to address it. They shared a cheeky response to Entertainment Tonight about the unexpected guests. “Everyone deserves to find love!”

Bachelor Nation fans took to Twitter and TikTok to share clips of the rodents. They run across the bottom of the bar as Sam and Jenn are chatting. Neither seemed to see the rodents, but viewers sure did. Check out some of the comments on a TikTok video of the interlopers:

Contestants Abandon Mansion
Luckily for the remaining suitors, they didn’t stay at the new mansion for very long. They ditched the Hummingbird Nest Ranch after the first rose ceremony. But it wasn’t because of the rats.
Jenn Tran’s season of The Bachelorette was filmed mostly overseas, a rare move for the franchise. However, they returned to the U.S. to film the hometown dates. The network hasn’t revealed what led to the switch-up, but it was likely a tactic to make her season stand out.
