‘The Bachelorette’ spoilers: Chris Soules endorses Kaitlyn Bristowe

Is Kaitlyn Bristowe getting closer and closer to becoming the next “Bachlorette“? While it may not be confirmed just yet, the more that we are hearing, the more it is looking like the Vancouver dance instructor is managing to sneak ahead of the pack, even beyond some other favorites like Britt Nilsson and fan favorite Carly Waddell.

What is the latest sign that Kaitlyn really is on her way to getting the role? Well, let’s just say that she has a very welcome endorsement right now from the series’ current star! Speaking in a new interview with E! News while at the taping for the recent “Women Tell All” show, Chris made it very clear that he wants to see Kaitlyn take on this role:

“I think I would definitely go with someone from this cast.  And right now, my personal opinion would be Kaitlyn … I think she’s got the right type of energy. She’s funny, she can be entertaining and she’s beautiful. She’s at point in her life that she’s really serious about finding love. I think that’s important. When you’re on this, you don’t want somebody there who wants more notoriety. You want someone who’s really sincere.“

Of course, Chris is not the one making the final decision, but he seems to be a good ambassador for the franchise. He probably wouldn’t be speaking out about this unless he knew with at least some confidence that Kaitlyn was at the top of the list.

ABC should announce the next “Bachelorette” during the “After the Final Rose” special.
