"The Bachelor" Season 20 is no other than Ben Higgins, who placed third from Kaitlyn Bristowe's "The Bachelorette" next to Nick Viall and Shawn Booth. Shortly after Chris Harrison announced the next Bachelor in the ABC reality show, Harrison revealed that several women started volunteering to join the cast for the upcoming season.
"I can't tell you the amount of direct messages I get on Instagram a day and none of them are for me. I'd love to say a couple are, but literally 100 percent of the messages are pictures of women saying, 'I am meant to be with this guy, I will leave my job, I will leave my life, I'll do anything,'" he said, according to Buddy TV.
Harrison wasn't surprised though. "The Bachelor" host admitted that it's no surprise to see women lining up to get the chance to snag Higgins' heart, as he described Higgins as someone who's "stunningly, ruggedly handsome" and has an "incredibly kind and generous and has a very good heart."
It looks like former "Bachelor" and "Bachelorette" stars are also vying for Higgins' attention and affection, as Celeb Dirty Laundry reported that Andi Dorfman has allegedly expressed her interest to join the upcoming season. The outlet also noted in a separate report that second placer Becca Tilley is also aiming to win Higgins' heart, which made Chris Soules insanely jealous.
Tilley was reportedly Soules' "the one that got away," and the latter immediately got jealous after hearing that Tilley was interested in marrying Higgins.
"It's so obvious that Chris is jealous of him - he already has more fans than Chris ever did and he hasn't even been on the show yet. The thought of Becca Tilley dating Ben H. has pushed Chris over the edge," a source told the outlet.
