We are BACK for yet another exciting, riveting, illumination season of the “Bachelorette” filled with twists, turns, love and barely any international travel that I’m sure will have you complaining within the first few episodes! I’m kidding. Sort of. But hey, it’s been three months, and yes, bear with me here as I learn how to type again. You know, that thing I kinda have to do if I want to post a column. Yeah, I’ve basically done that once since Zach’s finale in March, so please, be gentle with me. Here we are on premiere day for Charity and below are your rose ceremony-by-rose ceremony spoilers for her season up to Hometown Dates. After that, I share what I know, what is 100% confirmed, and what the speculation is. Right now, I don’t have your final 3 because one picture hasn’t been 100% confirmed as being someone. Once it does (if ever), then we’ll know. But until then, or until I get any other bit of info about the final, you’ll speculate. It’s good to be back, we’ve got a lot to get to, so sit back, kick your feet up, pop open a cold one, and let me be your guide through Charity’s season. You know, until we come to a screeching halt at Hometown Dates. Whatevs. I’ll get it eventually.
