Meet The Men Of ‘The Bachelorette’ 2016: JoJo Fletcher Says First Night Is ‘Crazy,’ Does She Find Love?

The Bachelorette, starring JoJo Fletcher, premieres on May 23 and fans can expect a season filled with tears, drama, a few drunk guys, and at least one villain among the 26 men who are competing for JoJo’s final rose.

Although spoilers already hint that JoJo gets engaged during the romantic final rose ceremony in Thailand, many viewers simply want to know who this season’s guys are, who the villain is, and which former Bachelor makes an appearance at the first rose ceremony.

Here’s a look at the men who arrived at the Bachelor mansion when filming started in mid-March. JoJo tells E! that night one was “crazy,” but one look at ABC’s new promo (video below) confirms that the drama and craziness goes beyond the season premiere of the Bachelorette.

According to ABC, one man will show up after the first cocktail ceremony and he’s not only someone JoJo knew before the show started filming, he’s a blast from the past for fans, as well. [spoilers ahead]

Although many viewers have been buzzing about the possible return of former Bachelor Juan Pablo Galavis, blogger Reality Steve has confirmed that it’s another Bachelor who makes an appearance — Jake Pavelka. Although Jake pulls JoJo aside during the first rose ceremony, he’s just there to give her a little advice. Steve states that Pavelka has known JoJo and her family for years and his arrival on the show was “just a stunt” that was arranged to “freak out the guys.”

According to a previous report from the Inquisitr, fans will see JoJo develop feelings for a number of guys, but contestants Chase McNary, Robby Hayes, Luke Pell, and Jordan Rodgers are the ones to watch. Spoilers indicate that all four guys made it to the hometown dates that were filmed two weeks ago.
