‘The Bachelorette’: Fans Feel the ‘Franchise is Wasting Clare Crawley’s Time’ With This List of Guys — Here Are the Youngest Ones
Now that Peter Weber’s horrible season is over, it is time to move on to Clare Crawley as The Bachelorette. Since the drama with Weber, Madison Prewett, and Hannah Ann Sluss took so long during the finale, fans did not get to meet any of Crawley’s eligible men.
Instead, ABC posted photos of the 32 bachelors on The Bachelorette’s Facebook page on Mar. 11, 2020. ABC removed the images on Mar. 13, 2020. However, Reality Steve still has the scoop for viewers. Let’s take a look at what fans think of the youngest ones. Although Crawley’s season was postponed until further notice, the men are ready to go.
How old are ‘The Bachelorette’ Clare Crawley’s contestants for season 16?
Filming was going to begin for The Bachelorette on Friday, Mar. 13, 2020. However, to protect the health and safety of everyone involved, filming was postponed due to the Coronavirus.
Initially, there were 32 men listed on the Facebook page; however, only 30 will make the final cut. Currently, 15 of the guys are 27-years-old or younger. Crawley is turning 39, so fans thought the men might be older.
“So yeah, they don’t really care about age for Clare since they included that 23-year old I originally had, and a couple of 25-year-olds as well,” wrote the king of The Bachelor franchise spoilers, Reality Steve. “That’s ridiculous. I know Clare dates younger, but not THAT younger. 14 years? Seriously?”
Fans agree with Reality Steve that 14 or 15 years younger is too young.
“Why are they all so young?” asked one fan on Twitter. “What woman approaching 40 is actively seeking a spouse in their mid-20’s? I’m all for dating younger men, but this is getting silly.”
