Fourth Time is the Charm?

As if getting dumped wasn’t already bad enough, imagine getting dumped two times on national television. Welcome to the life of ABC’s newest bachelor, Nick Viall.

Nick first made his appearance in 2014 on Andi Dorfman’s season of “The Bachelorette”. On the series finale, Nick was one of the final two men vying for Andi’s affection. Unfortunately, Nick was sent home and Andi accepted a proposal from contestant Josh Murray.

After each season finale, there is a special episode titled “After the Final Rose” where contestants see each other for the first time since filming ended. Nick, finally being able to confront Andi and discuss where their relationship went wrong, took matters into his own hands. He literally calls out Andi about having sex with him in the fantasy suite (yikes). Watch it here.

Nick didn’t stop there. He decides to give love another chance, by showing up halfway through Katlyn Bristowe’s season. Nick once again makes it to the final two. This time, Katlyn allows him to pull out the engagement ring and start to get on one knee before she forces him to stand back up (double yikes). Watch it here.

Just when we thought Nick was through with the Bachelor series, he makes an appearance on “Bachelor in Paradise”, a spinoff of “The Bachelor”. Poor, poor Nick thinks he has found love with Amanda, until Josh Murray comes in and steals her away. That’s right, the same man who won over Andi’s heart.

Reality television never lets me down and ABC announced Nick as the newest bachelor last week on the season finale of “Bachelor in Paradise”. Will Nick find love? Will this be “the most dramatic season yet”? Only time will tell. Set your DVR’s because this is going to get interesting.
