When is The Bachelor Season 26 finale?

THE BACHELOR - "2603" - Following last week's cliffhanger, Clayton confronts one of the women about a shocking rumor involving her, but will her explanation check out, or will Clayton break tradition and take back a rose? Later, Kaitlyn Bristowe pays a surprise visit, leading an emotional date where Clayton and the women bravely open up about their insecurities. Becca Kufrin stops by to plan an extreme scavenger hunt for the one-on-one date in downtown Los Angeles; and back at the mansion, one of the ladies unknowingly sets off a new set of drama dominoes when she cooks the house a shrimp snack. Then, it's time to kick up some sand when former "Baywatch" star Nicole Eggert takes the second group-date ladies through some romantic lifeguard training; but when the date doesn't end as expected, one disappointed woman is ready to make waves yet again. Will Clayton reward her efforts to protect him by giving her the group date rose or be pushed to his limits? Find out on "The Bachelor," airing MONDAY, JAN. 24 (8:00-10:01 p.m. EST), on ABC.

The Bachelor Season 26 finale is rapidly approaching, Bachelor Nation! I know it’s hard to believe that we’re already at the end of Clayton Echard’s journey, but alas here we are. It’s been quite the season, to say the least, filled with lots of interesting characters and questionable decisions.

It feels very clear that Clayton was greatly influenced by production over the choices he made, but that’s pretty much the story of every single season. But as we head into hometowns next week, there is a lot at stake for the final four remaining women–Susie, Rachel, Gabby, and Serena.

Will they be able to convince their family that Clayton is the man of their dreams? Or will the families get in the way of a blossoming love story? Tune in next week to find out, and until then, here’s what we know about The Bachelor Season 26 finale!

When is The Bachelor Season finale?

Based on the schedule, it looks like we have three weeks left of episodes before the finale. Next week is on Monday, February 28 we have the hometown dates. The following Monday and Tuesday (March 7 and 8) we have the Women Tell All and the Fantasy Suite dates. Based on that schedule, it’s safe to assume that on Monday, March 14 will be The Bachelor Sebe). ason 26 finale.

That day should mark the end of Clayton’s journey and the day we will find out how all this ends for him. Will he end up with any of the contestants? Will there be a potential happily ever after moment? Or will Clayton leave the season single and ready to mingle once again?

I feel like this could go many ways, and there’s a part of me that thinks we’re going to get a Peter Weber-esque ending (I hope not, but something tells me it just might). I guess we’ll find out in just a few weeks!

Next. Who went home on The Bachelor this week? (Season 26, Episode 7). dark
