Watch The Bachelor Season 28: Synopsis
Joey’s quest to find “the one” is over, and viewers can catch every moment of his journey now. Not long after having his heart ripped out on The Bachelorette, Mr Graziadei dared to be vulnerable again: sharing laughter, anxieties, dreams – and sometimes a hot shower – with a bevy of potential soulmates. And, finally, he got down on one knee and proposed to one very special lady. Did she say, “I do”? Find out with our guide below, which explains how to watch The Bachelor Season 28 online and stream every single episode from anywhere in the world.
It's truly been a roller coaster season of The Bachelor. We saw an unprecedented number of contestants looking to win the affection of tennis pro Joey – a record-breaking 32 in total. And from the start, he was like catnip to the ladies. There was unanimous agreement that this unfailingly courteous dreamboat was “pinch me I’m dreaming”-level incredible. Yet, despite the dozens of beautiful, intelligent women fighting over him, he still opined that his love might not reciprocated in the end.
Season 28 was packed with emotional revelations, romance, intimate dates in exotic locales, and tons of unexpected drama. Lea Cayanan entered the Bachelor Mansion with an envelope that proffered an advantage that would “absolutely change everything” – and threw it in the fire. We saw the “dumbest fight in Bachelor history” unfold, and Lauren Hollinger and Lexi Young reluctantly eliminate themselves from the show. Plus, we got to witness the wince-inducing spectacle of Maria Georgas and Sydney Gordon – two bitter rivals – on an hilariously awkward double date with Joey.
By the time Hometowns came around, there were only four ladies left. Sadly for some of us, Joey cut fan-favorite Maria loose, despite their heat and entertaining chemistry. He also bid an emotional farewell to Rachel Nance in Fantasy Suites week, with whom he’d enjoyed a comfortingly “slow burn” romance.
That left Joey with an agonizing final decision: Daisy Kent, or Southern belle Kelsey Anderson? He’d shared incredible times with both, in locations from Malta to Montreal and Mexico. But, although Joey had previously confessed, “I can see Daisy being my wife,” by the final episode they both knew that his heart – and the final rose – belonged to just one person: Kelsey Anderson!
You can relive the drama of this giddy, whirlwind romance right now. Just read our simple guide below, which explains how to watch The Bachelor Season 28 and stream every single episode for free from anywhere.
