Fan Accuses Bachelor Grant Ellis Of Leading Contestant On

Zoe McGrady was hardly a frontrunner on Season 29 of The Bachelor. She barely got any time alone with Grant Ellis to build a connection. In a rarity on the show, she got a Hometown Date despite never having a one-on-one date with Grant during the season.

At that point, fans and Grant were much more invested in the other finalists, Juliana Pasquarosa and Litia Garr. The final three women jetted off to the Dominican Republic for the Fantasy Suite episode. They each got solo time with Grant on individual dates.

Fans Want Her On Bachelor In Paradise

The fan who called Grant Ellis out for his behavior toward Zoe also wrote that they wanted Zoe to get her happy ending. In her response, Zoe said that she hopes she finds love soon.

She could still find love in the franchise if she joins Season 10 of Bachelor In Paradise. ABC yanked the spinoff from last year’s TV schedule, but it will return this year. The network hasn’t revealed a release date. And according to spoiler guru Reality Steve, it hasn’t started filming yet. In fact, he hasn’t even heard rumblings of which Bachelor Nation alums will be on the new season.

Jenn Tran’s Bachelorette contestants Jonathon Johnson and Hakeem Moulton were asked to join Season 10 during the Men Tell All special last summer. However, those are the only names officially confirmed so far.
