Tonight, Becca Kufrin chooses her fiance in front of the entire nation, in a live finale event. Traditionally, The Bachelorette has aired its finale and followed it up immediately with an “After the Final Rose” live special, catching up with the latest on the star couple of the moment. Last season, the show combined the finale and the ATFR special for one, big live event. The same goes for 2018. The live finale will air from 8 – 11 p.m. ET/PT and 7 – 10 p.m. CT, on the ABC network. But, if you don’t have cable or cannot get to a TV, you can watch The Bachelorette live online via your computer, phone or streaming device by signing up for one of the following cable-free, live-TV streaming services:
Hulu With Live TV: In addition to their extensive Netflix-like streaming library, Hulu also offers a bundle of live TV channels, including ABC (live in most markets), so you can watch The Bachelorette online. You can sign up for “Hulu with Live TV” right here, and you can then watch a live stream of ABC on your computer via the Hulu website, or on your phone, tablet or streaming device via the Hulu app.
If you can’t watch live, “Hulu with Live TV” also comes with both its extensive on-demand library (which has many shows available after they air) and 50 hours of Cloud DVR storage (with the ability to upgrade to “Enhanced Cloud DVR,” which gives you 200 hours of DVR space and the ability to fast forward through commercials).
Sling TV: ABC (live in select markets) is included in the “Sling Orange” plus “Broadcast Extra” channel bundle. You can sign up for a free 7-day trial of both packages, and you can then watch ABC live on your computer via the Sling TV website, or on your phone, tablet or streaming device via the Sling TV app.
If you cannot watch live, you can get 50 hours of cloud DVR storage as an additional add-on.

Amazon’s official synopsis of The Bachelorette 2018 reads, “The gut-wrenching finish to Becca Kufrin’s romance with Arie Luyendyk Jr. left Bachelor Nation speechless.
