The Bachelor Season 28 is officially days away from ending as Bachelor Nation anxiously awaits the season's outcome. Will Joey choose to spend forever with Daisy Kent or Kelsey Anderson?

If you're into spoilers, then we already know the outcome of the season. IF you are curious and don't mind finding out, click this link to read/watch our interview with Bachelor Nation spoiler guru, Reality Steve. You'll get all the tea on who Joey does or doesn't end up with and his thoughts on who the next Bachelorette might be.

And on that note, Bachelor Nation is also eager to learn when the next Bachelorette will be announced. Here's everything we know about the impending announcement and who we think will be Bachelor Nation's next leading lady.

The next Bachelorette will likely be announced during the 'After the Final Rose' live special

If ABC is following its usual formula, then it is likely that we'll learn about the next Bachelorette during The Bachelor Season 28 finale. According to Reality Steve, ABC takes their sweet time deciding on who the next lead will be, and sometimes it goes all the way until the last moment. Apparently, this decision could even take place as late as during the 'After the Final Rose' episode!

However, it appears that ABC has made their decision, but even Reality Steve doesn't know about it just yet. The reveal may not have leaked yet because even though ABC allegedly has it down to two people, they can always change their mind, according to Reality Steve.

"ABC can do whatever they want because they've got us all over a barrel just dissecting everything," Reality Steve said. He also shared that ABC "told people in the past they are the lead, and all of a sudden they weren't because they changed their mind at the last minute."

Can you imagine being told you are the next lead and then ABC changing their mind last minute? Yikes.

Who is the next Bachelorette (or who do we think it might be?)

MAJOR SPOILERS AHEAD!

So, with all that said, do we have any idea the next lead might be? Well, here's what Reality Steve thinks, or is pretty confident is going to happen. If you don't want to know spoilers about the ending, come back to read this at a later time.

You have been warned!

According to him, the network has likely dwindled it down to two contestants--Daisy Kent and Maria Georgas. He also added that ABC has probably had both of them do their intro videos and complete their fittings. It may come down to the wire with this one so that is why they would have both of them go through the process, just in case.

"It's a 50/50 shot, it's not like, 'Oh my gosh, someone's gonna come out of left field,'" Reality Steve shared. "No, it's more than likely, based on everything I've heard, going to be between Daisy or Maria."

Based on last week's 'Women Tell All', it feels like the choice is pretty obvious. Maria was on full-on audition mode and really exuded Bachelorette vibes. The crowd loved her, she was the most outspoke of the group, and there was just this aura about her that screamed, "I AM THE NEXT BACHELORETTE!".

While we don't know ABC's choice just yet, I think whoever they go with will be a fun choice. Between Daisy and Maria we would have two completely different seasons so things could get interesting.

Luckily, we'll know soon enough!

The Bachelor Season 28 finale airs on Monday, March 25th on ABC at 8 PM EST. Don't miss it--it is going to be the most "dramatic ending ever", ya'll.
