When it comes to this season of The Bachelorette, no one seems to know what’s going on. While it seems certain that Tayshia Adams will take over for Clare Crawley this season, numerous Bachelor Nation alumni have been spotted filming.
This led some fans to believe that Becca Kufrin and Hannah Ann Sluss were possibly cast as leads The Bachelorette together with Tayshia Adams. However, fans have found enough evidence to prove that Kufrin and Sluss did not join Tayshia Adams on the show.
[Spoiler Alert: This article contains possible spoilers for the upcoming season of The Bachelorette.]
Hannah Ann Sluss and Becca Kufrin were filmed for ‘The Bachelorette’
Shortly after rumors spread that Adams had replaced Crawley on the show, Sluss and Kufrin were tracked down at the La Quinta Resort in Palm Springs, where The Bachelorette is filming. Then, on August 5, a Twitter thread was published by a source who was presumably close to the show.
In the thread, the Twitter user claimed that Kufrin and Sluss were also brought into the show, writing:
“2. First, in what is widely known at this point, Clare fell in love with former NFL player Dale and left the show. Her story will still be shown in the first episode this fall. Producers were in a crazy SCRAMBLE last week to save the season. They were NOT happy.
3. Enter Tayshia, from Colton’s favorite of the season. Producers hoped they would save their season and they stepped to the plate. She had worked at a new fashion company, but decided to fall for the opportunity. CH has apparently narrowed her down as he usually does. ”
“5. This is where things get crazy: The morning after T’s cocktail party, producers were unhappy with the story lines and connections that had developed the night before. Somehow the rush to save the season lifted some air from the sails of T and the men and the energy was low.
This is when producers got on the phone with Hannah Ann Sluss (winner of Peter) and decided to, for the first time in Bachelor history, create a PANEL of bachelorettes for the boys to choose from. (her suitcase was abnormally heavy!)
7. Becca Kufrin was also flown to the set two nights ago and will serve as the third woman in what has become a Bachelorette Triumverate (she recently broke off her engagement). She seemed extremely upset / shocked when I spoke to her this morning. ”
Reality Steve denied the reports
After Kufrin and Sluss were tracked down at the La Quinta Resort, Wells Adams was also tracked down. This has led some to speculate Bachelor in Paradise could also film. Blogger Reality Steve, however, dismissed these rumors on Twitter.

“(SPOILER) Can’t make this clearer – GDP does not happen during filming. Tayshia is the ‘Bachelorette.’ All the other performances by alumni are cameos are done bc of the weirdness of the season. Not a normal season, so they do abnormal things. It’s as simple as that, ‘he said tweeted.
Fans have confirmed that there will be no three leads on ‘The Bachelorette’
Based on social media activity, it looks like Kufrin, Sluss and Wells Adams are no longer at the La Quinta Resort. In a new Instagram story, Kufrin has uploaded a video of her young niece implying she is no longer filming The Bachelorette. Wells Adams posted photos on Instagram with his fiancée Sarah Hyland, and Sluss has posted several times on her Instagram stories.
One Reddit user wrote, “Looks like the random people who showed up at the resort are back home … Becca posted a story with her niece, bad to say where she was, but did not live with her sister MN? “
While fans now know that there will not be three Bachelorettes next season, some fans did not find the theory convincing in the first place.
“I’m more surprised that people thought three bachelorette theories might have been true,” a Reddit user wrote.
Another Reddit user agreed, writing, “especially since Becca and Garrett have not yet announced their breakup, I was like ‘do you seriously think a bachelorette is so soon after an engagement?'”
