The Bachelor Season 26 continues this week with yet another episode! But this time around we’re getting into the thick of things with group dates, one-on-one dates, and a guest host. Did I mention that the guest host is going to be Hilary Duff?

Yes, that’s right. The girls who helped us envision what dreams are made of is going to enter the world of The Bachelor to give Clayton Echard some dating advice. It appears she’ll show up for the first group date and help Clayton figure out how to navigate the murky and confusing waters of love.

Last week we said goodbye to a handful of women, including Salley Carson. You’ll remember her as the girl who was engaged a month before coming on the show as a contestant. However, she and her ex broke up, and instead, she decided to come on The Bachelor. The day she met Clayton was the day she was supposed to get married so naturally, that stirred up a lot of feelings.

She went to meet Clayton and somehow made a strong enough impression on him that he offered her a rose to get her to stay. Salley ultimately said no and went home, and left us wondering why the heck they had to go through that whole debacle. It was strange, to say the least.

…And that pretty much wraps up the entire episode in a nutshell.

Here’s to hoping this week will be just as entertaining!
