Is Hannah Brown really returning for The Bachelor?

So, is like Hannah Brown really coming back to The Bachelor?

The Bachelor released an exciting teaser earlier this week, and with it something that we simply have to know about. During the promo, we get a glimpse of the girls that will be vying for Pete’s love, but we also see the return of a familiar face–Hannah Brown!

Yes, that’s right, Hannah Beast returns, but we’re not entirely sure in what capacity. The teaser leads us to believe that she returns to the Bachelor mansion, but I’m not so convinced. I think it’s a ruse to get our hopes up, at the risk of sounding pessimistic.

However, we do overhear Peter asking Hannah to join the house, but it’s a bit too vague to take seriously. If Hannah B. does indeed return to the house, what does it mean for the other contestants? I, for one, think that would be so unfair given Hannah’s advantage.

She’s been in the game before, and with all her recent fame, she’s clearly a top choice. However, I don’t think that will be the case for those very reasons. Plus, what’s a season of The Bachelor without some drama and suspense?

The franchise wants us to pine and stress over what the promo meant and whether or not Hannah really will return. It’s Colton’s fence jump all over again, isn’t it? Well, whatever the case may be, I think Pete’s season is already off to a magnificent start.

During an interview with Variety, Brown spoke all about the promo. However, she doesn’t really reveal much at all because she can’t. Come on Brown, you should give us a little bit!

"I can’t really say much, but I think that you’ll just have to wait until January and see really how everything plays out. That’s all I can really say."

The rest of the interview goes on with the interviewer trying to poke and prod Hannah about her status with Pete and how much time she spends on The Bachelor. She continued to stay mum and instead persisted on saying that all her time has been devoted to Dancing With the Stars. Which she officially won–yay!

We have two months left until Pilot Pete’s season of The Bachelor, so it looks like we’ll have to hang tight until then. Ugh, I know.
