January 21, 2024

Bachelor Nation fans, prepare yourselves for the most shocking news to hit your screens. The latest Bachelor, Joey Graziadei, is no stranger to romance, but he is about to take the most daring swing of his life onto the set of The Bachelor Season 28.

In a new promo released by ABC, Joey is ready to find love, and he wants fans to know it. In typical over-the-top fashion, the network released a steamy new video in which Joey, shirtless and sweaty, is seen playing tennis, as he declares, “I’m falling in love with you.” The video then pivots to him looking into the camera as he confidently states, “I am definitely ready to find my wife.”

The season’s teaser includes clips of Joey in various romantic settings, from a dramatic ocean view to a ladies’ man moment of passionately kissing a mystery woman at sunset. The voiceover teases the upcoming season, stating, “One man will take a swing at finding his lifelong doubles partner.”

The tennis puns continue to pile on as Joey takes a woman under his wing to teach her how to swing a racket, with a contestant exclaiming, “We are game, set, say it with me — match.”

Host Jesse Palmer introduced Joey as The Bachelor back in August after Joey was sent home from his journey on The Bachelorette by lead Charity Lawson, who ultimately got engaged to Dotun Olubeko. Joey’s announcement as The Bachelor came as a surprise to fans, and he expressed his excitement by saying, “I mean, I’ll be the first person to say this is wild. I never expected this at all, didn’t know this is what my life is turning at this moment. So yeah, crazy stuff, but I’m excited.”

In a press release from ABC, Joey is described as an adventurous and outdoorsy man who loves hiking, surfing, and watching the sunset. He is on a quest to find a partner who shares his love for adventure and nature. On Instagram, Joey reflected on his journey on The Bachelorette and expressed his eagerness for the next chapter as The Bachelor.

It’s official, Joey is ready to give out his final rose, and viewers can expect to witness the blossoming of true romance and love on The Bachelor Season 28, set to premiere on January 22 on ABC, at 8/7c.

Stay tuned as Joey navigates the challenges and triumphs of his journey to find a lifelong love. The drama, emotional roller coasters, and the thrill of love are about to unfold in the most unexpected and surprising ways on The Bachelor Season 28.
