‘The Bachelor’: Meet the Women of Zach Shallcross’ Season 27

A whole new Bachelor journey is about to begin, and fans can now meet the 30 women who are looking to win Zach Shallcross’ heart.

The women competing this season range in age from 23 to 30, and hail from all across the United States (and even Vienna, Austria), and from a wide variety of professions — including marketing managers, nursing students, business owners, and a rodeo racer — to name just a few.

Shallcross’ season of The Bachelor is apparently going to have some early franchise vibes. ET’s Denny Directo spoke with Jesse Palmer after the Bachelor in Paradise reunion taping in November, and the host gave an update about season 27 of The Bachelor.

“I would say this is the most romantic season and the most emotional season of any of the shows I have been a part of since coming back and hosting,” Jesse said. “… I cannot wait for people to see the journey unfold.”

“It sort of feels like a throwback to Bachelor seasons of old,” he added. “[There’s] maybe not as much drama, but more love. I feel like that’s what Zach’s gonna bring ’em. I think you’re gonna be surprised.”

Season 27 of The Bachelor will premiere Monday, Jan. 23 on ABC. Keep reading for a first look at the 30 women who will emotionally duke it out for a shot at love with Zach.
