Season 29 of The Bachelor Premieres with Grant Ellis Seeking Love
Season 29 of The Bachelor premiered on January 27, 2025, with Grant Ellis, a 31-year-old former professional basketball player and day trader, as the leading man. Ellis, originally from Newark, New Jersey, now resides in Houston, Texas. He was previously a contestant on Season 21 of The Bachelorette, where he was sent home just before hometown dates. Ellis expressed his excitement about finding love, emphasizing his desire for a compassionate, drama-free partner who shares his values.
The season features 25 women from diverse backgrounds, including a pediatric speech therapist, a boxing trainer, an attorney, and a Ph.D. student, among others. Ellis praised the contestants for their charisma and energy, noting that he is serious about finding his future wife. He also shared that he values maturity and dislikes gossip or drama, which he believes indicates a lack of readiness for a long-term relationship.
Fans can follow the contestants on Instagram and TikTok for behind-the-scenes glimpses into their lives outside the show. The Bachelor airs on ABC at 8 p.m. ET, with episodes available for streaming on Hulu the following day. Viewers without cable can watch through services like DirecTV Stream, fuboTV, Sling TV, or Hulu + Live TV.
