'The Bachelor' Season 28 cast is here: Meet 32 contestants vying for Joey Graziadei's heart
The newest season of ABC's long-running "The Bachelor" franchise will return to screens next month.
Season 28 of "The Bachelor" will premiere on Monday, Jan. 22 at 8 p.m. ET/7 p.m. CT on ABC, featuring teaching tennis pro Joey Graziadei as this season's lead. The season will feature 32 women, the most to ever arrive to the mansion on the first night, all vying to win Graziadei's heart.
Graziadei was the runner-up on Season 20 of "The Bachelorette" with lead Charity Lawson, who accepted the proposal of Dotun Olubeko.
Graziadei is "looking for a life partner who is outgoing, caring and shares his love for adventure and exploring the outdoors," according to this season's description from ABC. "He loves hiking, surfing, and ending his days watching the sunset, but knows he has much more love to give and the only thing missing is someone with whom to share his life."
Here's what to know about the cast for "The Bachelor" Season 28.
