List of episodes

The seventeenth season of The Bachelorette premiered on June 7, 2021.[1] The season featured 30-year-old Katie Thurston, a bank marketing manager from Lynnwood, Washington.

Thurston previously finished in eleventh place on the 25th season of The Bachelor featuring Matt James.

Chris Harrison was not hosting this season following his racially insensitive comments; instead, former Bachelorettes Tayshia Adams and Kaitlyn Bristowe are co-hosts in his place.[2]

Filming and development

Casting and contestants

Thurston was announced as the Bachelorette by Emmanuel Acho during the After the Final Rose special of the 25th season of The Bachelor on March 15, 2021 alongside season 18 lead Michelle Young.[2]

Notable contestants include Andrew Spencer, who is the cousin of season 14 contestant Clay Harbor.[3]

Production

The beginning of the series returned to its traditional summer schedule after the sixteenth season was delayed to October 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. As with the last two American Bachelor Nation editions, this season was originally set to be filmed in a bio-secure bubble at the Fairmont Jasper Park Lodge in Jasper, Alberta, Canada.[4] Due to the quarantine measures enforced by the Canadian government would require to travel to Canada, production was later pulled from the location in early February 2021 amid travel restrictions.[5] This season was then relocated to the Hyatt Regency Tamaya Resort & Spa in Santa Ana Pueblo, New Mexico to film domestically instead.[6]

Contestants

34 potential contestants were revealed on March 18, 2021.[7] The final cast of 30 men was released on May 18, 2021.[8] Greg Grippo and Karl Smith were originally cast in season 16, when filming of that season was due to start on March 2020 as television productions were shut down caused by the pandemic, the former was not called back for the rescheduled production on July 2020, and the latter was initially accepted to be brought back on that season but was cut from filming on that same month.[9]

In week 3, season 16 contestant Blake Moynes joined the cast.[10]
