ABC Katie Thurston.
The latest “Bachelorette” news has arrived! ABC has released the very first official promo for Katie Thurston’s season of the show, which premieres on June 7, 2021.
ABC offered fans their very first look at Katie as “The Bachelorette,” officially, showing a few clips from the season. So far, the reaction to the video seems positive, with many fans writing they are “excited” in the comments section of the post.
The promo starts off with night one, as Katie gets to meet her guys for the first time. Katie then shares a moment with Tayshia Adams, who kicks things off by saying, “Let the journey begin.” It looks like Katie gets her fair share of unique entrances, with one guy arriving in a huge gift box, and another dressed up in a cat onesie.
Also in the promo are tears — from Katie and a few of the guys — a blow-up doll, and a sweet smooch. Before cutting out, there is a clip of Katie at a cocktail party in which she says to the guys, “if you are not here for the right reasons, there’s the door.”
