The Bachelor final 4 predictions: it’s finally time to speculate who is making it to hometowns. Is there more shakeup? Who is taking this thing seriously?

Coming into episode 6 of The Bachelor, there were 12 girls and it didn’t seem like hometowns were coming soon. But with all the shakeup this week, we are down to 7 and there will be 3 more girls leaving in episode 7.

Episode 6 started off with Colton sending home Onyeka and Nicole after their petty war. I don’t know about you, but I am a big fan of when contestants are sent home after fighting with each other. It makes zero sense to fight with the other girls and it makes you look terrible, unless your only goal is air time. Nevertheless, Colton got rid of both Onyeka and Nicole and, as it currently appears, the drama.

Also going home this week were Sydney and Demi, before the Bachelor rose ceremony, and then Katie at the rose ceremony. I think everyone saw the Sydney move coming. She wasn’t featured too much and Colton wasn’t into her. I’m sure we will see her in Paradise.

Demi, on the other hand, was a bit of a surprise. While I didn’t think she would win, she was a big enough character in this season to at least stick around one more episode and maybe even make it to the Bachelor hometowns. I think she is a lock for Paradise.

All three, Sydney, Demi and Katie, warned Colton when they were leaving that there were girls still around that are not taking this seriously. That has him flustered and it looks like episode 7 will be full of tears and drama. I can’t wait!

That being said, with 7 girls left, Cassie, Tayshia, Caelynn, Hannah B., Hannah G., Kirpa, and Heather, here is who I currently see as the top 4:

  • Cassie– She has been the favorite this whole season of The Bachelor and I do not see this changing. In episode 6 she didn’t have a lot of alone time but she didn’t do anything that would hurt her odds of making it to the end. One thing that has me worried were the previews for next week. It appears that she is sent home, but I am holding out hope that that’s just what ABC wants us to think.
  • Hannah G.– Last week this spot was held by Hannah B., but after this episode, Hannah G. slides into the top 4. She gained A LOT of momentum from her one-on-one. She also is the only one that Colton has mentioned he is falling for. It also helps that she received the first impression rose, and historically, that goes a long way.
  • Tayshia– She continued her momentum from last week and rode it into this week. Getting the group date rose, at this time in the season, is always a good sign of how the Bachelor feels.
  • Kirpa– Continuing the theme of momentum, Kirpa jumps up into my top 4. She seems to be hitting her stride at the exact right time. This week, she jumps over Caelynn and Hannah B.. While she is still guarded, Colton clearly has a keen eye for her. Their relationship is building and it’s obvious that Kirpa is taking this serious.

Next. The Bachelor episode 6 reaction: Bye, bye, bye babes!. dark

We are coming down to the end, which makes the drama higher and the episodes better! I am excited for Episode 7 and to finally see which hometowns Colton will be going to.
