ABC Announces Premiere Date For Ben Flajnik’s ‘Bachelor’ Season

New year, new “Bachelor.”

ABC has announced its love-seeking franchise – with Ben Flajnik as “The Bachelor” – will premiere on Monday, January 2, 2012 at 8 PM.

The two-hour premiere episode will find Ben searching for his ladylove with one of 25 women.

As previously reported on AccessHollywood.com, Ben, 29, is a winemaker from Sonoma, Calif., but his relationship with Ashley Hebert didn’t ripen to perfection during his time on last season’s “The Bachelorette,” and she ultimately chose JP Rosenbaum, who she is reportedly still with.

During his run on “The Bachelorette,” Flajnik was never shy about his search, for not only love, but for a woman to start a family with.

The winemaker loves his hobbies, including crab fishing, sailing, golf, skateboarding, surfing, playing piano and singing in a tribute band.
