Last week, during The Bachelor finale 2019, Chris Harrison officially revealed the answer to the question we've all been DYING to know: who is the next Bachelorette? Well, as you can tell by the title of this article, it's Hannah Brown! And I couldn't be more excited.
Hannah B., best known for her alter ego as "Hannah Beast," caught the attention of viewers early on in Colton Underwood's season of The Bachelor. The adventurous, charming, and fun-loving 'Bama girl was ultimately left heartbroken after meeting Colton's family in Denver and being unexpectedly dumped on the same day. Collecting her thoughts in the limo ride home, Hannah B. said something that resonated with me as well as the rest of Bachelor Nation. Drying her tears (while not to mention still looking absolutely ~fabulous~ in her silky pink gown), she said:
"The desire of my heart is to be loved so fearlessly by somebody . . . I will not allow myself to not feel chosen every single day, and I'll wait until whenever that is."
Amen sister. From that moment, I knew she was destined to be ABC's next Bachelorette. And while there were undoubtedly some top-notch candidates in the mix, I'm really happy it's Hannah B. Here's why:
She keeps it REAL.
The reason Hannah B. earned her spot as ABC's next Bachelorette is because she was real, she was herself, and she wasn't afraid to show every part of herself on Colton's season. It's clear that there is so much more to her than meets the eye. She has both depth and character, which I totally respect and love about her.
She's CONFIDENT.
Hannah B. knows what she wants and she knows herself. She's got a huge heart and a good head on her shoulders. Although she may be young, she's ready for marriage... and that's what this show's all about: finding love and getting engaged. The girl is definitely not here to play games.
She's WILD.
There's a reason why they call her "Hannah Beast." Watch out boys - I wouldn't want to get on her bad side.
She's ADVENTEROUS.
Hannah B. proved to Colton that she'll never shy away from trying new things... even if that includes eating a bug in front of the guy you like. Yes, an actual bug.
She's actually FUNNY.
Who doesn't love a girl with a good sense of humor? Especially the unapologetic, self-depricating kind.
She's AWKWARD (but in the most endearing way possible).
She may not be the best at giving toasts or pinning roses, but Hannah B.'s quirkiness and goofy nature are just further proof that she is truly real and one of a kind.
Cheers to Hannah B. and what I expect will be an unforgettable new season of The Bachelorette.
