The Bachelor Season 26 To Reveal Official Chris Harrison Replacement

Insiders are claiming that Chris Harrison’s official replacement will only be revealed on The Bachelor season 26, which is scheduled to air in January 2022, citing that ABC is in no rush to find a replacement host immediately. Chris Harrison has been the mainstay host of every single season of The Bachelor and its long-running spin-offs The Bachelorette and Bachelor In Paradise. In 2022, this franchise will commemorate its 20th anniversary, and Chris would have been able to celebrate his 20 years working for Bachelor Nation.

However, as the fans are well aware, Chris Harrison has been paid an eight-figure settlement to exit The Bachelor franchise for good. The decision for this show to part ways with its host came after Chris Harrison fervently defended Rachael Kirkconnell’s racist past and attempted to argue with former The Bachelorette lead Rachel Lindsay about racism. There was just no coming back from that infamous Extra interview, as Chris proved with his words and actions that he was unfit to host a series that desperately needed to make space for such important conversations.

With the official announcement that Chris Harrison would never return to host The Bachelor in future seasons, many fans started to speculate who would be his permanent replacement. However, Variety is reporting that ABC is in no rush to announce Chris Harrison’s official replacement right now, revealing that “it’s likely a permanent host won’t be named until the upcoming season of The Bachelor.” The upcoming The Bachelor season 26 will only enter production in the fall of 2021, and it will only go on the air in January 2022. As such, it seems like the network is going to take its time to find a suitable person for that highly-coveted role.

For now, the producers have hired season 16 lead Tayshia Adams and season 11 lead Kaitlyn Bristowe to host Katie Thurston’s season of The Bachelorette, but there was always a sense in the air that this would only be a temporary solution for the franchise. Moreover, a lineup of celebrity guests will be co-hosting Bachelor In Paradise season 7, which is set to premiere on ABC in August 2021. But again, that only seems like a temporary solution. It is likely that the network will want to hire a permanent host to replace Chris Harrison – someone that could be the face of all Bachelor Nation shows. Right now, however, it seems like they’re in no rush to make that decision.

Many names have been thrown in the ring as potential replacements for Chris Harrison, but they’ve all been speculative reports without any real commitment from the producers. After the very complicated situation that the Bachelor Nation franchise found itself in, it comes as no surprise that producers will be as careful as possible in the process to pick a replacement host for The Bachelor season 26.
