Fourth time’s the charm, right?
As we previously reported, ABC announced on Tuesday evening that Nick Viall will be The Bachelor‘s season 21 star after failing to find love on The Bachelorette (twice) and Bachelor In Paradise. Obviously, Bachelor nation had A LOT to say about this announcement.

Not only did Viall’s longtime nemesis Josh Murray chime in on the dating show’s pick, but so did the reality TV show’s best villain to date Chad Johnson! Also, the fans’ reactions to the news seemed to be mixed as many were thrilled to have the 35-year-old attached to the ABC hit — while others were not as happy.
