“The Bachelorette” was revealed on Monday night.
In a huge twist to the franchise, Chris Harrison revealed that two women will head up the franchise – Britt and Kaitlyn from Chris Soules’ season of “The Bachelor.”
The men will get to choose who they think will make the best wife, according to “The Bachelor” and “Bachelorette” host. By the end of the season — the show’s eleventh — only one woman will “hand out the final rose,” per ABC.
“I’m super grateful,” Britt told Harrison on Monday night. “I think it’s an amazing opportunity. … It’s more than I can comprehend and I love Kaitlyn, so we’ll just see how it goes.”
Kaitlyn was honest about her reaction when she found out she wasn’t going to be the lone “Bachelorette.”

“I think what went through my mind was, ‘Well, that’s not ideal.’ … But, if that’s what it takes to find somebody.”
“The Bachelorette” will premiere Monday, May 18 at 9 PM ET/PT on ABC.
