We’ve reached the beginning of the end… of the hype.

And now we can finally settle in to watch the beginning of Clare Crawley’s actual journey.

At last, right?!?

For several weeks now, ABC has danced around The Bachelorette spoilers that have clearly previewed how Clare Crawley will leave the show after just 12 days of filming because she falls so darn hard for a suitor named Dale Moss.

We all know it’s about to happen.

But producers refuse to come right out and say it.

The latest trailer, however, which aired just 24 hours before Crawley’s debut, takes fans behind the scenes of the unprecedented drama that’s about to unfold.

“I’ve been looking for love my entire life. I’m 39. This might just be my last chance,” Clare says early on, adding of her ring-free left digit: “I promise you: this finger will be no bare no more.”

From there, executives drop a pretty huge hint by cutting right to Crawley meeting Moss for the first time.

“I definitely felt like I just met my husband,” Clare says in a voiceover after gazing into Dale’s gorgeous eyes.

But then things take a decidely more upsetting and dire turn.

We witness Clare saying, “Ahh! Sick, sick!” and crying in the arms of a woman before a contestant angrily criticizes her age.

“I expected way more from the oldest Bachelorette,” he screams.

To what is this guy referring?

We have no idea, but Clare stands up strongly for herself in response.

“I don’t care what I’ve done. To sit there and say you’re the oldest Bachelorette. Guess what, I’m the oldest Bachelorette that’s 39, that’s standing here, that’s single because I didn’t settle for men like that,” she tells the camera.

The trailer then gives us a glimpse at the contestants gathered together … as one says in a voiceover:

“It’s only a matter of time before Clare realizes the truth — that Dale’s maybe not who Clare thinks he is.

Cut to a shirtless Dale is seen cuddling with Clare in a bed. Whoa there!

“I don’t know how you can be so sure so quick,” another suitor says, likely referencing Clare’s feelings for Moss.

“How about the 15 of us walk out?” says another wannabe husband.

As he’s been doing in interviews, Chris Harrison then talks to the men and emphasizes the historic nature of what’s happening this season.

“In the 18 years I’ve been doing this show, we’ve never dealt with anything like this,” the host tells the men.

“There’s also not going to be a rose ceremony tonight. I can’t even fathom how you guys are going to try and process this.”

“I don’t know what that means, like, okay, do we get a new Bachelorette in here?” a contestant asks.

“What the f–k just happened?” says another.

Viewers will soon find out, but Harrison issues a dangerous warning for Crawley at one point.

“The path we’re on right now, it doesn’t end well,” he tells a tearful Clare, “for you, for the guys, for anybody.”

The Bachelorette premieres Tuesday at 8 p.m. ET on ABC.

You guys ready for it?!?

In a word?

Hubba. Hubba.

Okay, fine, true: Those are two words.

But they still paint a very clear picture of how Clare Crawley reacts on her very first night of The Bachelorette upon locking eyes with Dale Moss, the suitor numerous reports have confirmed will end up stealing Clare’s heart.

Not just stealing her heart, either.

But blowing up this entire season of the franchise.

As you must have read by now, via any number of The Bachelor spoilers out there, Crawley will become so smitten with Moss in such a short period of time that she and producers will agree that there’s no point in Clare continuing on.

She’ll peace out of the Quinta Resort in California after just 12 days of filming because she knows deep down that Moss is The One — so why pretend otherwise?

On Tuesday night’s premiere, viewers will get to see Crawley meet her numerous contestants … including Moss, a former NFL player from Brandon, South Dakota.

“How are you?” Dale asks, emerging from the limo.

“I’m a hugger, so I’ve got a big hug for you,” he says as wraps her in his arms and lifts her off her feet, way up into the air.

“I needed this,” Clare says in response. “I needed this so bad, you have no idea.”

Moss, who allegedly delved deeply into Clare’s social media posts prior to making her acquaintance, then tells The Bachelorette:

“I really do feel this is going to be special. I can’t wait to see you inside.”

“I agree,” Clare responds. “I can’t wait either. Thank you for the great hug! That was amazing. You’re a good hugger.”

After Moss walks away, the camera lingers on Clare’s face for a bit — and she’s practically drooling, you guys.

“I definitely feel like I just met my husband,” Crawley says via voiceover, in a line clearly dubbed and added in after the scene took place. “I’m shaking!”

ABC has not yet confirmed that Crawley and Moss fall for each other right away, prompting the unprecedented move of actually replacing Crawley with Tayshia Adams just two weeks into the season.

Chris Harrison has, however, teased that this season will be absolutely bonkers.

And not just because filming was delayed due to COVID-19.

Speaking to People Magazine recently, Clare said the postponed schedule was “stressful,” but there was a silver lining.

“There were also honestly so many pros to it getting shut down,” she explained.

“Producers were able to recast some of the guys and get some that were more appropriate for what I was looking for. I wanted a guy who was genuinely there for me. There was a lot of talk about, ‘Oh, I’m the older Bachelorette, are these guys too young?’

“But it was also about: Am I too old for them? It went both ways. So we were able to hone in on what everybody was looking for.”

When opening night at last arrived, it was even more special, Clare told this outlet;

“To see the men standing in a room and know that most of them have the same interests and goals as I do, it really was magical.

“They were all amazing. I could feel it in my bones!”

Check out the sneak peek here see the instant chemistry between Moss and Crawley.

You can almost see the sparks fly!

The Bachelorette premieres Tuesday at 8 p.m. ET on ABC.

In the a new trailer for Clare Crawley’s upcoming season of The Bachelorette, Chris Harrison says what we’re witnessing is “historic.”

But here’s the thing:

He may not be referring to what everyone out there assumes.

By now, through a number of The Bachelorette spoilers that have been confirmed by a number of reliable sources, we know that Crawley only sticks around for 12 days of filming this fall.

Why?

Because she falls so hard for a contestant named Dale Moss that she sees no reason to continue shooting and continue pretending as if any other guy on set has a shot at her heart.

According to a bombshell report, producers even helped convinced Clare to go home early.

Tayshia Adams will be brought in to take over for Crawley and, yes, Harrison has already talked about how crazy and wild the season will be as a result.

(“It is unlike anything we have ever seen on this show before,” the popular host recently teased.

“I know I say that sometimes, but I truly think we have outdone ourselves this time. I think it definitely goes up on the Mount Rushmore of wild seasons of Bachelor and Bachelorette.”)

However, based on this footage depicted here, it appears as if something ELSE unprecedented is about to go down.

Early on, the trailer comes across like every other trailer in The Bachelorette history, with Clare talking excitedly about her journey — and also with Clare kissing a lot of men.

Including one in a blindfold.

But then it takes a turn.

There’s a shot of one of contestants crying and saying “it’s just scary” after Crawley asks someone if everyone there is lying to her.

And then?!?

Another guy can be heard saying, “How about the 15 of us walk out?”

Whoa there, right??? This would be quite the development.

It would also be an understandable development if the other men just found out about Moss and Clare’s feelings for him, you know?

ABC, of course, has remained mum about Clare and Dale — and the related stunner that Adams gets brought in to take over as The Bachelorette.

But it remains an accepted fact at this point, with the only real question centering on whether or not Crawley is actually engaged to Moss right now.

We don’t have that information for fans just yet.

We do know, however, that Clare concludes this trailer in a puddlle of tears, making us think her time as The Bachelorette — as brief as it may end up being — isn’t exactly smooth sailing.

Look for the adventure to begin on Tuesday, October 13 at 8/7c on ABC.

And look at this preview for an emotional, intense andd mysterious glimpse at what’s ahead!

Get ready, Bachelor Nation.

Get set.

And prepare to go totally bananas over the latest promo for Clare Crawley’s upcoming season of The Bachelorette.

As you may or may not have heard by now… okay, let’s be honest, OF COURSE you’ve heard by now if you’re here reading this… Clare is about to embark on a run of epiosdes unlike any in franchise history.

Because she’ll be secluded at a resort in California with her 30 potential husbands, as a result of the coronavirus? Yes.

But also because Crawley will reportedly fall in love with a suitor named Dale Moss almost immediately upon meeting him.

Where will things go from there?

According to Reality Steve, many outlets and all The Bachelorette spoilers we’ve combed through, Crawley and producers will agree that there’s no point in Clare continuing on with the season.

Not once she’s already so smitten, you know?

As a result, Clare will leave and Tayshia Adams will swoop in to take over as The Bachelorette.

But this won’t happen before plenty of emotion is spilled on screen.

In this new preview, for example, Crawley berates one of her contestants.

“Do not talk to me like that!” she screams.

Elsewhere, at least one of the men breaks down in tears.

And still elsewhere, Crawley thanks the Lord for giving her such “fine” men from which to choose a soulmate, and also remarks that she’s in “the perfect place to fall in love.”

Toward the end of the video, Chris Harrison shows up and says the following to Clare:

“Congratulations, you’ve just blown up The Bachelorette.”

No one associated with the show has confirrmed all of these Clare-leaves-and-Tayshia-jumps-in rumors… but they’re not even rumors at this point.

ABC is just dancing around the subject as a way to hype what’s on tap.

And what is on tap?

Only “the most shocking season ever,” this trailer also promises.

Might that actually be true for a change, however? We’ll see!

And you can see what we mean now via the video featured here. Enjoy!

It’s been a rocky road and a most unusual one, but it’s also now official:

Clare Crawley is the next Bachelorette.

We know, we know: This has been the case for months.

ABC announced the unexpected casting decision back this spring, naming t…

Clare Crawley is about to go boom.

Actually, to be more precise, Clare Crawley is about to go KA-BOOM!

ABC has released a new trailer for the new season of The Bachelorette — and it makes the following more clear than ever before:

We’re in for an unprecedented run of episodes from this long-running franchise.

“Drama this soon is a little bit crazy,” the 39-year old hairstylist says earlier in the teaser that dropped on Monday, September 14 during the season 29 premiere of Dancing With the Stars.

The network then treats us to a number fo strained puns, talking about CLARE-ity, mentioning a need for producers to CLARE-ify what the heck is going on and ciiting a desire for CLARE-ification.

The video also cites how viewers need “top-secret Clare-ance” before finding out exactly what will unfold this season.

These are all not-so-subtle references, of course, to Crawley allegedly falling so hard for a suitor named Dale Moss that she figures there’s no point in continuing on with filming.

According to dozens of outlets and all The Bachelorette spoilers we can find, Clare therefore leaves the California set of the show and Tayshia Adams gets brought in to finish out the season.

Crazy, right?!?

At one point in this new promo, Crawley says, “I’m so falling in love with you” before telling another man to “get out of here!”

This Bachelorette previews also features one contestant breaking down in tears, Crawley crying and a contestant getting kissed while wearing a blindfold.

KINKY!

In the first true glimpse at Clare leaving the series long before the season is over, meanwhile, we see her sitting down across from Chris Harrison.

“Congratulations, you’ve just blown up The Bachelorette,” the beloved host says cryptically.

At this point, however, we all know what he means, right?

Ahead of the program’s October 13 premiere, Crawley opened up about her season, which was filmed at La Quinta Resort & Club in Palm Springs, California, amid the COVID-19 pandemic.

“It’s different in the best way possible,” the Bachelor in Paradise alum told Harrison during an appearance on the September 7 installment of The Bachelor: The Greatest Seasons — Ever!

She then said that this season’s isolated location actually worked out very well for her in terms of what she’s looking for in a soulmate.

“I want somebody who is not excited about traveling to the wonderful locations, which is great and awesome to be able to go do those things, which I’ve done before,” explained Clare.

“But this is more of what I’m looking for — just one-one-one connection or multiple connections.

“And just having the time to get to know each other way better and not having to focus on anything greater than that. It’s the most important thing.”

Season 16 of The Bachelorette premieres on ABC on Tuesday, October 13 at 8/7c.
