Things took quite a dramatic turn for Michelle Young on The Bachelorette on Tuesday night.
And it all centered on Jamie Skaar.
Just seven days ago, Skaar was chosen for Young’s first one-on-one date, making a strong impression on the school teach…

We’re several weeks away from the Men Tell All special on this season of The Bachelorette.

On Season 18 of The Bachelorette, LT Murray IV is trying to become Michelle Young’s husband.
But here’s the thing about LT Murray IV:
He’s already related to Oscar-winning actor Clint Eastwood!
The suitor is this actor’s grandson! For real!

Michelle Young is off, running and trying her best to choose a potential husband.
On Tuesday night’s Season 18 premiere of The Bachelorette, at least one contestant made it easy for the school teacher from Minnesota.
The guy did something so weir…
For so very long, there was only one thing we know for certain about Michelle Young’s brand new Bachelorette season:
It features the next Bachelor.
In what we believe is a first for the franchise — which is also airing its second Bachelorette se…
Welp.
This is all a bit weird and awkward, isn’t it?
Last month, following rumors that ABC would name one of Katie Thurston’s scorned suitors as the next Bachelor, executives went ahead and zigged where fans thought they wouldd zag:
Clayton Echard has instead been named the next Bachelor.
And just who is Clayton Echard?
He’s someone who is about to fall for Michelle Young!
Following the season 7 finale of Bachelor in Paradise, ABC dropped an extensive look at Young’s upcoming season of The Bachelorette.
At one point, we see Clayton talking via a confessional and saying of Michelle: “The more time I spend with her, the more that I realize she could be the one.”
Now, it doesn’t take an analysis of any in-depth The Bachelorette spoilers to know that Young does not, actually, end up being The One for Clayton.
He gets eliminated at some point, likely some point toward the end of the season because he has to first make an impression on viewers before shifting over to star on The Bachelor.
The whole set-up, though, it just extremely odd.
Elsewhere in this extended preview, meanwhille…
Clayton gets into it with fellow contestant Nayte, referring to him as “a player,” before stating, “You’re an actor and you’ve come on a reality TV show.”
The video also shows the new Bachelorette gushing over feeling “super special” as she looks for “my soulmate, my best friend, someone who’s going to change the world with me.”
All the guys seem REALLY into Young, too.
One man praises her as “an amazing, beautiful, strong Black woman,” and another says that she’s “a one-in-a-billion girl.”
Michelle also makes out with plenty of her aspiring husbands and remarks that one session marked “the hottest kiss.”
There are “fireworks” with another, and Young even says she “in love” with a third.
Sounds like it’s gonna be a tough choice for Michelle!
At another point in the footage, Tayshia Adams breaks the news that she and fellow co-host Kaitlyn Bristowe “found something that is actually really alarming” in one of the guys’ luggage.
“Someone is planning out their every move,” Tayshia claims, as Michelle breaks down in tears.
There’s speculation over “a rat” being on the show is teased, and Michelle confesses that she feels “unseen” by one man and “can no longer trust another.”
To wrap up the video, Michelle reads a love letter to her future soulmate.
“Finding love hasn’t really been easy for me.
“I was never the girl invited to cute dates at the apple orchard in the fall. I was the girl picked last for prom, but the first for basketball,” she says.
“It was like there was nobody like me.
“Before there was nobody to see me. Hey, soulmate, if you’re listening, you’ll need to understand, in my heart of hearts, all I’ve ever wanted is love, and I hope you can be that man.”
The Bachelorette premieres on Tuesday, October 19 at 8/7c.
Things are getting shady! Clare Crawley is (sort of) giving her side of the story amid reports she and on-again, off-again fiancé Dale Moss have split.

It’s just not the winner anyone or any outlet had previously anticipated.

So much for those alleged Bachelor spoilers.
So much for the hate mail you planned on sending to ABC executives.

Forr fans of The Bachelorette, one was fun in 2021.
But twice will soon be very, very nice.
As television viewers likely know by now, ABC made an unprecedented decision several months ago to cast Katie Thurston as The Bachelorette… and also Michelle Young a The Bachelorette.
The former completed her run earlier this summer, selecting Blake Moynes as her winner/fiance.
Now, here comes Young!
Set to “Bounce Back” by Little Mix, ABC released the first official promo for Young’s upcoming season on Tuesday night.
It features the 28-year-old anchor looking gorgeous in a white, lacey gown that featurres a high slit.
At one point, Young strolls into a room filled with exquisite floral installations and grabs onto a red rose.
Walking into another room, Young catches and dribbles a basketball — before successfully shooting it into a basket. Nothing but net!
Young, who is a school teacher from Minnesota, then enters a classroom and picks up an apple.
Making her way down a floral-adorned staircase, Young then wraps things up by sharing her hope for her Bachelorette journey with viewers.
“I’m looking for someone who’s going to change the world with me,” she says. “I’m ready.”
We met Young during Matt James‘ recent of The Bachelor, which aired early in 2021.
The former Division I athlete left as the runner-up, as Matt chose to pursue a relationship with Rachael Kirkconnell overr getting down on one knee in front of Young and asking for her hand in marriage.
Cut to the After the Final Rose special in March — and both Michelle and Katie being confirmed as the next female leads in the franchise.
“I’m excited that I get to have somebody to bond over with this and share notes as we go,” Michelle previously said on Good Morning America.
“I really do think that this process works.
“When you can set down all these outside distractions and really dive in, I think you can learn a lot about somebody.”
From The Bachelorette spoilers we’ve thus far read, Young and her suitors will mostly be quarantined at a large resort… but will find time to visit Michelle’ hometown late in the season.
Following Thurston’s run, meanwhile, the 30-year-old shared the advice she gave Young before becoming the Bachelorette.
“I’ve spoken to her as much as I can because I know it’s any day now they’re gonna take her phone away,” Thurston said, adding:
“I think the biggest advice I’ve given her is to just be open. Don’t close yourself off too early. I think guys can surprise you … weeks later when you don’t expect it.”
Season 18 of The Bachelorette premieres Octoberr 19 at 8/7c on ABC.
