‘The Bachelorette’s’ JoJo Fletcher Moving On From Ben Higgins With Aaron Rodger’s Little Brother
Filming for The Bachelorette is well underway, and JoJo Fletcher is already making moves with her suitors. Following her second place showing on The Bachelor, Fletcher has reportedly gotten over her love for Ben Higgins and has taken a liking to Aaron Rodgers’ younger brother, Jordan. Will her new romance be able to last all the way to the final round?
An inside source told Us Magazine that the romance between Fletcher and Rodgers is really starting to take off as production for the hit reality series continues to move forward. In fact, Fletcher has already given two roses to Rodgers, who has emerged as a potential finalist for Fletcher’s heart.
“He and JoJo are really hitting it off,” the source explained to the outlet. “He’s a frontrunner already.”
At this point, it isn’t clear if Fletcher is in love again or if she’s just exploring her options. Given the other reports that have surfaced, the latter is probably more accurate.
In fact, Fletcher was also spotted with a mysterious gentleman outside of an airport in Burbank, California. The two arrived at the airport in a sports car before heading over to their private jet while holding hands.
“They were laughing a lot,” a source revealed. “They were very affectionate.”
The identity of the man has not been revealed, although he is believed to be one of the contestants on The Bachelorette.
Meanwhile, Mike Fleiss recently revealed that JoJo Fletcher has exchanged kisses with three contestants already. It’s a good bet that Jordan and the mystery man are two of the men she has kissed, but nothing has been confirmed. Despite the early displays of affection, the creator of the hit show added that Fletcher “is taking this very seriously.”
Although an official trailer has not been released, Fleiss has taken to social media to share a few behind-the-scenes photos of the upcoming season. In particular, Fleiss posted a first look at Fletcher in action as the newest lead on The Bachelorette. In the image, which was shared via Twitter, Fletcher is seen posing in a sparkling gown as she prepares for her second red rose ceremony.
Considering how fast Fletcher has moved on since Higgins dumped her at the end of The Bachelor, Celeb Dirty Laundry is reporting that she might not have loved Higgins as much as people suspected. As fans will recall, Fletcher appeared devastated after Higgins told her that he loved her and then went on to pick Lauren Bushnell during The Bachelor finale.
Fletcher was clearly distraught upon finding out that Higgins loved another woman. In fact, this aspect of her storyline is one of the main reasons why ABC decided to pick her as the next Bachelorette. After all, many fans felt sorry for Fletcher and will likely root for her to find love in the 12th season of The Bachelorette.
However, Fletcher appears to have moved on quite suddenly after her stint on The Bachelor, leading many to speculate whether or not she was truly in love with Higgins. Furthermore, Fletcher’s activities with Jordan and the mystery man at the airport are not exactly what one would expect from someone just getting over a terrible heartbreak.
That being said, Fletcher and Higgins parted ways back in November, so she has had a few months to fully digest everything that has happened. Whatever the truth of the matter, it is clear that Fletcher is doing her best to find love, and that apparently entails making sure she’s explored all of her options.
Season 12 of The Bachelorette is set to premiere on May 23 on ABC.
