And based on a recent move at ABC’s hit reality franchise, it seems that the trend exists behind the camera as well.<\/p>\n Deadline<\/em> reported<\/a> Thursday that Jason Ehrlich<\/strong> is rejoining the team as a consulting producer after exiting Bachelor Nation last year. He had been with the franchise for more than 20 years leading up to 2024.<\/p>\n As Deadline<\/em> noted, the seasoned TV producer is working on the upcoming season of The Golden Bachelor<\/em>, which is set to return to ABC on Sept. 24. He had served as executive producer of the recently launched spinoff’s first season.<\/p>\n The Golden Bachelor<\/em> premiered in September 2023, with Gerry Turner<\/strong> as the eponymous single lad. The first season concluded with Theresa Nist<\/strong> marrying the restaurateur, who was 72 at the time. They divorced three months after tying the knot in January 2024.<\/p>\n Ehrlich, who began working at The Bachelor<\/em> way back in 2003, departed the franchise last year amid claims revealed by Deadline<\/em><\/a> that Claire Freeland<\/strong> and Bennett Graebner<\/strong> \u2014 who began running things with Ehrlich in March 2023 \u2014 ran a “toxic” and “hostile” environment. But Ehrlich wasn’t a part of the claims.<\/p>\n Since leaving Bachelor Nation, Ehrlich has been exec producing the Hulu dating series Love Overboard<\/em>.<\/p>\n Outside of ABC’s reality franchise, he has kept busy producing other small-screen projects over the years, such as The World’s Best<\/em> (2019) and Shatner in Space<\/em> (2021).<\/p>\n In other Bachelor news, fans recently voiced their interest<\/a> in seeing Gleb Savchenko<\/strong> from Dancing With the Stars<\/em> on the reality dating show.<\/p>\n When the DWTS<\/em> pro, 41, confirmed through a TikTok post<\/a> on Aug. 14 that he won’t be returning for season 34 of the competition show, Savchenko didn’t exactly shoot down the idea of joining The Bachelor<\/em>.<\/p>\n When a fan commented, \u201cWhy are you not on the BACHELOR?\u201d Savchenko simply replied, “I\u2019m down.”<\/p>\n Longtime ‘Bachelor’ Producer Rejoins Franchise After Exiting Last Year<\/a> first appeared on Parade on Aug 19, 2025<\/p>\n This story was originally reported by Parade<\/a> on Aug 19, 2025, where it first appeared.<\/i><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
