When Does ‘The Golden Bachelorette’ Begin Filming?
Joan Vassos is the first ever golden bachelorette. While fans of The Golden Bachelor largely assumed Leslie Fhima would get another shot at love, many were thrilled when Vassos was revealed as the show’s lead. The widowed Maryland native is pretty excited about the prospect of finding her next big love. So, when exactly does filming on The Golden Bachelorette get started? It’s sooner than you think.
When does ‘The Golden Bachelorette’ begin filming?
Joan Vassos is ready to embark on her dating journey. The first-ever golden bachelorette recently shared a snapshot from a sendoff party with friends and family on Instagram. The snaps led fans to believe filming for The Golden Bachelorette is set to begin. It looks like they are correct.
According to Reality Steve, The Golden Bachelorette is slated to begin filming around the end of June. Production will wrap in late July. According to the insider, filming for Joan’s season should last around five weeks, which will give the production team just over a month to prepare the season for the small screen.
The timeline appears a bit tight, but that’s likely due to production schedules. Joan Vassos and her suitors will enter Villa de la Vina, better known as the Bachelor Mansion, just weeks after Jenn Tran finished filming her season of The Bachelorette. Tran’s upcoming season is slated to premiere on July 8.
When will fans meet Joan Vassos’ suitors?
While Joan Vassos is set to start her golden journey in just a few days, it could be a while before fans meet the slew of men she’ll be dating on The Golden Bachelorette. Viewers shouldn’t expect to meet the men who Joan will be courting until after she finishes filming her season. If Reality Steve is correct, that won’t be for another six weeks or so.
If ABC follows the same timeline as The Golden Bachelor, fans will see the men Joan had to choose from sometime in August. Gerry Turner’s season was filmed in June and July of 2023, but ABC waited to release the cast bios until late August, just a month before the series premiered. The Golden Bachelor premiered on Sept. 28, 2023. The Golden Bachelorette’s Sept. 1 premiere date would suggest fans will get a sneak peek in late July or early August.
