That’s right, folks! In a fun, fresh franchise move, Paul, the 31-year-old MomTok icon and swinging star of Hulu‘s Emmy-nominated reality series, will be handing out stems and searching for her perfect man on Season 22 of The Bachelorette.
After teasing a famous Bachelorette lead without ties to the franchise on Tuesday, Call Her Daddy host Alex Cooper revealed the news with Paul in Wednesday’s episode of her podcast. And per a press release from ABC, “The Utah native is ready to trade headline-making heartbreak for hometown dates as she begins making her mark on Bachelor Nation.”
“Paul is the breakout star of The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives, captivating millions with her raw, unapologetic storytelling,” her official Bachelorette bio reads. “Off-screen, she’s a TikTok powerhouse whose comedic, heartwarming and bitingly honest content has earned her a massive following. As a single mother of three, Paul shares the highs and lows of her life with unfiltered candor. With humor, resilience and a fearless openness, she inspires others to embrace life’s chaos and own their story.”
While Paul’s fans will likely want to count down the days until her season of The Bachelorette, an official premiere date has yet to be announced, though do we know the spin-off won’t return until 2026. (Remember? On the heels of Jenn Tran’s heartbreaking season, the franchise announced The Bachelorette would be skipping a cycle in 2025.) In the meantime, you can catch up on The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives on Hulu ahead of its November 13 return.
