We are SO here for this!!!
If you’re watching Nick Viall‘s season of The Bachelor, you’re familiar with Rachel Lindsay — the fan-favorite attorney from Dallas who stole all of our hearts after her one-on-one date with Nick in New Orleans!
Although Miz Lindsay is still technically in the running for Nick’s heart on the show, we’re hearing ABC has chosen her as their FIRST EVER black Bachelorette… and that’s just fucking amazing! And honestly, so overdue!

We mean, after 21 seasons of The Bachelor and 12 seasons of The Bachelorette, there has not ONCE been a minority lead! Insane!
Executive producer Mike Fleiss has been dropping hints left and right on Twitter about the “historic” decision — that will reportedly be announced TONIGHT on Jimmy Kimmel‘s show:
I have just received approval to make an historic announcement in the coming days regarding #TheBachelor !!!

And journalist Amy Kaufman (who is writing a book about the franchise) seems to have the inside scoop:
I just found out a piece of information that makes me 100% certain that @TheRachLindsay is the next “Bachelorette.” It’s happening.
