Amanda Stanton is said to be one of the bachelorettes hoping to fall in love with Ben Higgins on ABC’s The Bachelor 2016 season this winter. Though fans will have to wait and see whether she can snag Ben’s final rose, it does seem as if Stanton may be one to watch during Season 20. What do fans need to know about this bachelorette?

Reality Steve’s spoilers indicate that Amanda Stanton is 25-years-old, and she lives in Orange County, California. As it happens, Amanda is a mom to two young girls, seemingly named Kinsley and Charlie, and she is divorced. Her ex-husband is a guy named Nick, and it seems he’s very much present in parenting his daughters, as he shares quite a bit about them via his Instagram.

Amanda appears to be a very dedicated mom to her two daughters, and she used to share quite a few videos of her oldest via her Vine account. Bachelor spoilers from the Bach and Bachette Fan Forum indicate that Amanda’s daughters are a bit under 4-years-old and 2-years-old, and it seems that both are daughters with her now ex-husband.

Stanton has a sister, named Carissa, with whom she is clearly very close. From the looks of Carissa’s Instagram page, she’s spending a lot of quality time with Amanda’s daughters as Bachelor filming takes place. Fans can be sure that there will be a lot of talk from Amanda throughout Season 20 about her life back home with her daughters and extended family.

Steve’s Bachelor spoilers indicate that Amanda went to the Paul Mitchell esthetician school, and she now has her own health and wellness site. Interestingly, it would appear that prior during her younger years, Amanda may have had some involvement in the entertainment industry.

There is an IMDb page for an Amanda Stanton that certainly seems to sync up to her age and hometown. Stanton was involved in several projects between 2006 and 2010, including The Cheetah Girls 2 and Merry Christmas, Drake & Josh, along with a couple of Nickelodeon Kids’ Choice Awards specials. It sounds as if Stanton did a bit of stage work and a couple of television commercials when she was younger, as well.

Amanda is not the first parent to pop up on The Bachelor or The Bachelorette, and she surely will not be the last. However, there are some fans who are already buzzing about her decision to leave her daughters at home when they are both so young. Many will be interested to hear her backstory as Season 20 begins, though it is clear that her daughters are surrounded by family while their mom is away filming.

Just how far does Amanda Stanton get on Ben Higgins’ Bachelor 2016 season? Fans will have to tune in this winter to find out for sure. However, Reality Steve’s spoilers do tease that Ben may get an opportunity to meet Amanda’s daughters. Steve’s Bachelor spoilers have detailed enough to indicate that Amanda is one to watch as Season 20 unfolds over the winter.

Whether or not Ben and Amanda have the chemistry to make it all the way to that final rose ceremony is something fans will have to wait to watch for, but it seems Stanton may make enough of an impression to get some roses for a bit, at least.

ABC’s The Bachelor 2016 season starring Ben Higgins premieres on January 4, and fans cannot wait to get started. Could Amanda Stanton be the one to snag that final rose?
