Two contestants from Long Island are among the 22 announced Monday by ABC for season 22 of "The Bachelorette," which premieres on March 22. (Yes, that's a lot of "22s.")
The two are described simply as Marcus, 28, a creative designer from Elmont (fun fact, per ABC: "Marcus once got attacked by a bird while on a run”) and Johnnie, 30, a former pro baseball player from Massapequa (fun fact: “Johnnie’s signature dance moves went viral on TikTok”). They will be trying to woo "Secret Lives of Mormon Wives" breakout star Taylor Frankie Paul.
Following the March 15 Oscars broadcast, ABC will air a kickoff special for “The Bachelorette,” featuring 18 former leads sitting down with social media star Paul to share advice before her journey begins, according to Variety.
Paul, 31, has previously said he’s looking for a partner who’s willing to move to Provo, Utah, to be with her and her three children.
