That would be a twist! Bachelor Nation stars Ashley Iaconetti and Jared Haibon are “down for Andi Dorfman round two” as the next Bachelorette with “still single” Nick Viall as a contestant, the married couple exclusively tells Life & Style. “We’d want to see Nick on the show as many times as possible,” Ashley adds.
Jared, 31, admits Andi, 32, and Nick, 39, rekindling things “would never happen in a million years,” but he’s “absolutely … here for it.” However, “you never know what could potentially happen” in Bachelor Nation, Ashley, 31, teases. The Wisconsin native first appeared in the reality realm during season 10 and finished in the top three along with Chris Soules and Josh Murray.
Although the “Viall Files” podcast host has very slim chances of reappearing in the Bachelor franchise, the Georgia native could be in the running for season 16’s leading lady. “She is going to turn 33 in the spring, and I think it would be nice to see a girl of that age,” Ashley explains while giving fans a chance to win a double date with her and Jared to support Ronald McDonald House Los Angeles. “Andi killed it as [the] Bachelorette the first time, so why not do it twice with her?”
Ashley previously told Life & Style exclusively that the former lawyer was one of her first choices to be next season’s lead. “She’s witty, whip-smart, stunning and won’t put up with crap,” she said earlier this month while promoting her partnership with .
Some show alums are gung-ho about Andi getting a “second shot” at love on the reality show, the brunette beauty is a bit hesitant. “You either do [it] and it works out for you, or you move on from it,” Andi exclusively confessed to Life & Style ahead of running the on March 15. The starlet added it may be a “one-shot thing.”
A throwback contestant or lead, including Andi, is definitely “worth discussing,” show host Chris Harrison exclusively divulged to Life & Style in February. “We are big believers in there is no terrible idea, unless someone’s obviously married or in a relationship,” the 48-year-old explained while promoting his partnership with . “But, if they’re not taken, and if they’re single, they’re a viable candidate.”
We can’t wait to see who our new Bachelorette will be!
