- The Fantasy Suite dates episode of “The Bachelor” will air tonight, featuring dates with the final three contestants.
- ABC is skipping the upcoming season of “The Bachelorette,” but “Bachelor in Paradise” is confirmed to return in 2025.
We are reaching the end of Bachelor lead Grant Ellis’ journey for love, with 25 initial contestants dwindling to the finale three women.
Tonight’s episode will see the return of the “Fantasy Suite dates,” filmed in the Dominican Republic where Ellis once played professional basketball. The finale was also filmed at the same location.
Grant will take each woman on a one-on-one date. ABC revealed the dates will feature an exhilarating ATV ride, an intimate yoga session and a zipline adventure through the gorgeous green foliage.
“This is the perfect place to get engaged,” Ellis says in the teaser. “I have to pick between three amazing women.”
Here’s how to watch and stream “The Bachelor” tonight, who is rumored to win his heart (and a ring) during next week’s three-hour finale.

What are the ‘Fantasy Suite’ dates?
If you are new to Bachelor Nation, the Fantasy Suites episode is when each contestant gets to spend an entire day with Grant at an exciting destination. At the end of the night, they choose to either stay in a suite separately from Grant or stay in a room together, without cameras.
Although the name might suggest that rated R things are happening behind the doors of these suites (and they may be), it’s the only designated time for the two to get to know each other without any cameras in their faces.

Is ABC canceling ‘The Bachelorette’?
ABC is skipping this year’s “Bachelorette” season for the first time since 2007, according to reporting by Deadline and USA TODAY.
ABC has not officially canceled “The Bachelorette,” but hasn’t announced how long the break from “The Bachelor” spinoff could last. It’s unclear when “The Bachelorette” could come back.
Was Florida’s Jenn Tran the last one? ABC’s ‘Bachelorette’ is not returning this summer
Deadline, which first reported the news on Feb. 7, 2025, wrote that it’s not clear why ABC is taking a break, but said it could be due to scheduling conflicts with other “Bachelor” franchise shows that were postponed due to the scheduling of “The Golden Bachelorette” in the fall.
The most recent bachelorette was Miami resident Jenn Tran, who recently announced she was returning to Florida to finish pursuing PA school.

“Bachelor in Paradise” will be the next show in the Bachelor universe to air. ABC confirmed last year that the series will return with an Instagram post captioned, “We’re heading back to the beach in 2025!”
Officials have not announced when “Bachelor in Paradise” will start. Season 9 aired in the fall; previous seasons have come out during the summer.
During the “Men Tell All” episode of “The Bachelorette” with Tran, contestants Jonathon Johnson and Hakeem Moulton were invited to join the cast of “Bachelor in Paradise” for 2025.
Who wins Grant Ellis on his season of ‘The Bachelor’ on ABC? See Reality Steve prediction
Beware: Spoilers ahead!
TV blogger Reality Steve, whose real name is Steve Carbone, correctly predicted the final four women for this season and also predicted Juliana to be this season’s winner in a Jan. 16 Instagram post.
It should be noted that Carbone has been wrong before, but as each season airs, he makes corrections to his predictions and usually ends up being right.
