Standing side-by-side, the women will be greeted by 32 men outside of the Bachelor Mansion during the premiere. According to ABC, the potential suitors arrive in “hopes of wooing the ladies with their charm, but they’ll soon realize it’s going to take more than dashing good looks and a memorable entrance to win the heart of one of these Bachelorettes.”
The 26-year-old became a fan favorite after her emotional breakup on Clayton Echard’s season of “The Bachelor.” But, as the episode description promises, “Rachel and Gabby have put their breakups in the rearview and are ready to find their person … even if that means breaking all the rules on night one.”
So, who receives Recchia’s first impression rose? Does she kiss anyone? Here is what you need to know:
