The contestants are older, wiser, and perhaps looking for a different type of connection than the typical Bachelor contestant. The series promises to highlight the emotional depth that comes with love later in life and is expected to have heartwarming moments, some unexpected twists, and lots of drama.

Fans can’t wait to see where this new journey goes — and many are excited for the idea that love can happen at any stage in life.
