Clare Crawley’s upcoming season is already flooded with madness, including rumors that she’s half replaced by Tayshia Adams among other stories.
If there are going to be two different leads “The Bachelorette,” as rumors seem to indicate, why not two hosts?
Well, it looks like that Clare Crawley is not the only star of the upcoming 16th season that will be replaced. The latest reports are that season 12 is leading JoJo Fletcher has been flown in to replace Chris Harrison himself.

It’s all about safety in the midst of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. And it stems from a family decision Harrison made that would have dramatically affected the already delayed production.
Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.
According to a report originally from Us weekly, Harrison made the call to be there and help his son, Joshua, go in for college. This triggered a 14-day automatic quarantine for Harrison.
Unlike other seasons of the franchise, Clare’s season of “The Bachelorette” is filmed at a resort and the entire production is effectively quarantined, including cast and crew.
The source of Us Weekly says that Harrison must be ready to go back for the show-sure-to-be-the-most-dramatic finale of the show. We can not help but suspect that this was at least something planned, as well as should not Fletcher also have had 14 days even quarantined before stepping up for Harrison?

And yet, according to Us Weekly’s source, Harrison did not expect to have to quarantine himself 14 days after his return. So how and why was Fletcher ready and available?
However, according to media reports, she is not the only one. Former participant “Bachelor” Tayshia Adams was widely reported as effective takeover for Crawley mid-season after the latter found love early and refused to continue.
And then there are the extra reports that Hannah Ann Sluss (from Peter Weber’s disastrous season) and Season 14’s Bachelorette Becca Kufrin may have also made their way to the resort during the entire filming process, among other possible ones.

Are Sluss and Kufrin (who are busy with their winner of the season) on hand as emotional support for Adams, or is there something further going on?
It sounds like things behind the scenes are even more messy than normal on camera. Is this changing into a season of “Bachelorettes in Paradise”? Is it about an “All-Stars” season?
Whatever happens, you can bet that Bachelor Nation will be the end of what almost certainly will be the most dramatic, crazy, ridiculous and unpredictable season of “The Bachelorette” finally launching on ABC.
