Fans can expect to welcome back Jenn Tran’s contestant Grant Ellis as The Bachelor.

The last time viewers saw Grant was on Monday’s episode, when Grant made it to the final six men competing for Jenn’s heart.
Unfortunately for him, Grant was sent away after not receiving a rose a week before the hometown dates.

In a press release, ABC wrote: “After an emotional exit, Grant Ellis’ journey to find love will continue as he takes on the starring role on the upcoming 29th season of The Bachelor.
“The adventurous day trader, who captured the hearts of Bachelor Nation with her genuine desire to build a family-centered future on Jenn’s season of The Bachelorette, will be handing out roses when her season premieres next year on ABC.”
GRANT’S GOODBYE
After leaving the grand mansion located in Seattle, Washington, Grant cried over not receiving a rose.
“I spilled everything and it wasn’t good enough,” he revealed to producers.
“It’s a shame to know that you have feelings for someone, and they don’t feel the same way about you.”
He continued to explain what he wanted in his future.
“I want a family, you know? I want to be happy. I want a wife. I want to be in love. I want that.
“I want to give everything to someone and I want them to give me everything in return. I don’t know what else to say. I didn’t think that would happen tonight.”
The other contestant sent home was Spencer Conley, who took the rejection with equal severity.
