Bachelorette JoJo Fletcher isn’t wasting any time finding a potential husband. Just three days after meeting 25 guys at the Bachelor mansion, she’s already been spotted out on a one-on-one date in Malibu, prompting many fans to wonder where she will travel this season and if the final rose ceremony will be filmed in an exotic destination, or in the U.S.
On most seasons of the Bachelor and Bachelorette , the first three episodes are typically filmed in and around Los Angeles, so fans who are in the area are bound to catch a glimpse of JoJo and some of her guys during the first full weekend of filming. On Saturday, fan Taylor Flynn shared a photo on Twitter of the season 12 Bachelorette driving through Malibu with her mystery date — perhaps one of the guys already spoiled for the season?
The dark-haired contestant sports a full beard, something the show’s creator Mike Fleiss says is a very popular look for many the guys cast for this season.
So many dudes with beards… JoJo is gonna break out the straight edge and shave one of these guys! #Bachelorette

Fleiss has been keeping fans up to date on JoJo’s dates this week and while he’s not giving away too many details, he revealed that she already had her first kiss, went on a “hot” group date, and is now on her second one-on-one of the season with the bearded mystery guy.
Now JoJo is on a 1-on-1 with a real nice guy. But he could use a shave…

ABC has not revelead week-by-week travel itinerary for season 12, but blogger Reality Steve is already providing some insight as to where JoJo and her guys are headed after they pack their bags and leave the mansion.
Steve indicates that one of the first stops outside of California is the Nemacolin Woodlands Resort in Farmington, Pennsylvania. Although traveling to Western Pennsylvania doesn’t sound all that exciting, Steve states that in prior seasons of the Bachelorette , the lead and her remaining guys traveled to the East Coast prior to heading out of the country, so Pennsylvania could the last stop before she heads to either Europe or a tropical destination.
The resort doesn’t look like a bad place to spend a date or two, so it’s likely that her suitors won’t have any complaints. It’s described as a “five star upscale golf resort” and that will probably make JoJo happy, too. Golf Digest recently reported that she is an avid golfer and there’s evidence of that on her Instagram account.
Before JoJo and her guys leave Pennsylvania for points unknown, Reality Steve‘s sources point to the Kennywood Amusement Parksin West Mifflin as a spot for one of her dates. According to Google Maps, travel time is about 90 minutes from Nemacolin, but whether the park will be used for a group date or a one-on-one is still unknown.
Filming for season 12 should run along the same time-frame as previous seasons of the Bachelorette . Last year, Kaitlyn Bristowe’s final rose ceremony was filmed during the first week of May in Los Angeles and her season premiered on May 18.
According to ABC, JoJo’s season will premiere on May 23, so filming for the final rose — location still unknown — will probably take place around the second week of May.
Are you excited to watch the upcoming season of the Bachelorette and do you think she will get engaged on the season finale?
