How to Watch ‘The Bachelor’ Live: Everything You Need to Know About Grant’s Season
February 24, 2025
The Bachelor is back, and the drama is just getting started.
If you’re new to Bachelor Nation after getting hooked on the first Golden Bachelorette with Joan Vassos — welcome! In case you missed it, a fan-favorite bachelor from Jenn Tran’s season of The Bachelorette, Grant Ellis, is our current Bachelor.
Lucky for the ladies of this season, Grant didn’t find love with Jenn despite being a much better choice than Devin (if you know, you know). But, as they say, everything happens for a reason. Following the end of Jenn’s heartbreaking season, she went on to place seventh on Dancing with the Stars, and we get an entire season dedicated to Grant.
Whether you’ve been a part of Bachelor Nation for the last 20+ years or you’re a newbie tuning in for the first time, Season 29 of The Bachelor is sure to be one of the most epic yet.
From the first impressions to the final rose, here’s what you need to know about where to watch The Bachelor live and on-demand.

Who Was Sent Home?: The Bachelor Episode Recaps
Season 29, E8: Week 8
Three women remain as Grant’s season heads south to the Dominican Republic for Fantasy Suites.
In this episode, Grant tells Litia “I love you” despite her boundaries for no physical intimacy during overnights. Meanwhile, he and Zoe are getting to know each other’s favorite colors on their first one-on-one.
Daisy and Rachel from Joey’s season and Kaity from Zach’s season make guest appearances to give the remaining contestants advice.

Season 29, E7: The Women Tell All
There is no shortage of drama on the “Women Tell All” episode of Grant’s season. As expected, Carolina takes most of the heat the entire episode since the only other house villain, Zoe, is still in the running and headed to Fantasy Suites.
But the best drama of the entire episode perhaps is “No Drama” — as in an appearance from Linda the No Drama Lama.
Plus, Jesse makes an exciting Bachelor in Paradise announcement and shows a preview of Grant’s stressful season finale.

Season 29, E6: Week 6
It’s already time for the “Hometown Date” — a benchmark moment in every Bachelor and Bachelorette season where the contestants get to introduce their potential fiancé to their families.
There are only four women left heading into Hometown dates: Juliana (Newton, Massachusetts), Zoe (New York, New York), Litia (Star Valley, Wyoming), and Dina (Chicago, Illinois).
While all the dates seem to go well, one family refuses to show up for their daughter — Dina. Though Grant assures her that their absence has no impact on his feelings towards her, he does send her home at the end of the episode.

Season 29, E5: Week 5
Grant and his seven remaining contestants leave sunny and warm Madrid for the dark and gloomy skies of Edinburgh, Scotland — which turns out to be incredibly romantic.
Shocked to be the only one without a one-on-one date all season, Zoe reluctantly joins Sarafiena, Alexe, Carolina, Dina, and Zoe for a Highland Faire-themed group date. Not surprising, however, is Carolina’s negative attitude and refusal to participate.
This leaves Juliana to go on her own fairy-tale one-on-one date with Gran where she gets the “Royal treatment” while Litia explores Scottish life like a local.
The episode ends with a shocking Rose Ceremony as Grant makes a couple of unexpected choices.

Season 29, E4: Week 4
This week, Grant and his women go to Madrid, where they immerse themselves in all of the art, food, music, romance, and drama Spain has to offer. With Grant’s journey already half way over, tensions and emotions are running high.
So far, most of the negative attention among the group has been directed towards Zoe, with Carolina following closely behind in the unofficial race for season villain. However, the tables turn as Carolina’s constant crying begins to feel like a calculated move — even Zoe is over it.
From a dreamy one-on-one date strolling through Madrid’s picturesque streets to bull riding and bridge jumping in the name of love — you’re not going to want to miss this week’s episode streaming now on Hulu.

Season 29, E3: Week 3
Week 3 was nothing short of chaotic.
There were tears, accusations, snarky remarks, even more tears, Grant-bucks, a mysterious self-elimination, and a surprise appearance from Lisa Vanderpump (Vanderpump Villa) and the men from The Golden Bachelorette. Oh, and did we mention the crying?
Once again, Zoe manages to make the group date about herself and Sarafiena isn’t having it. She fires back with a snarky comment about Zoe’s dress, which Zoe takes as her cue to run straight to Grant and spill the drama.
Later, just before her highly anticipated one-on-one, Beverly mysteriously vanishes after falling ill the night before — leaving Dina, Sarafiena, and Litia on a mini-group date at Vanderpump Dogs.
Meanwhile, back at the mansion, Carolina is spiraling. After an incredible one-on-one date with Grant the night before, the thought of him being out with other women the next day is unbearable for her. Things only get worse when Rose drops a bombshell: during last week’s group date, Grant confessed he was thinking of Rose while dancing on stage with Carolina. Cue the meltdown.

Season 29, E2: Week 2
It’s only Week 2, and tensions are high amongst the group-date girls. It all starts when Zoe pulls Grant away for one-on-one time in the middle of a group activity and again while engaged in private conversations with other girls — not once, but twice. But before Zoe can be crowned the villain of the season another bachelorette steps into the ring.
The second group date of the episode forced the contestants to step outside of their comfort by participating in a talent show. The winner gets a slow dance on stage with Grant and Carolina takes full advantage of her prize — ending the dance with an NSFW make-out in front of everyone.
As for the one-on-one date with Alexe? There’s a clear chemistry between the two, and we can’t wait to see where this blossoming relationship leads.

Season 29, E1: Night 1
The new season is finally here, and we can’t get enough of Grant and the hilariously creative ladies bidding for his heart. With first-impression entrances ranging from the “no drama lama” to a t-shirt gun and an actual wedding cake — we’re in for a very entertaining season.
