‘The Bachelor’ spoilers: Where Lauren Bushnell, JoJo Fletcher, Amanda Stanton stand with Ben Higgins
We’re at the point now in “The Bachelor” where there’s almost no point in continuing to do our ongoing Women to Watch series anymore, mostly because there are only so many women left and we know almost all of them fairly well at this point.
With that in mind, let’s shift gears for this article! While we’re not necessarily ranking the remaining ladies, we have segmented them off into groups based on where we think they stand with Ben Higgins at the moment. There are no spoilers ahead; just guesses based on edit and the relationships we’ve seen.
No chance at all
Leah Block – Other than the football thing the first night, we have no clue who she is.
Emily Ferguson – No one-on-one date so far, is mostly known for having a twin.
Jennifer Saviano – We have no clue who she is.
Next to no chance
Lauren Himle – Super-nice, but we get the sentiment that her one-on-one date with Ben was too little, too late for their relationship to be anything other than a friendly one.
Olivia Caridi – Yes, they started out very strong, but we think the fact that there has not been a one-on-one date so far is a huge testament to how Ben feels about her compared to some of the other women. She’s villain cannon fodder.
Possible contenders
Amanda Stanton – She’s had some romantic moments with Ben here and there, but we’re still waiting until he meets her family to really know whether or not there is a genuine future here. If she survives past hometown dates, she could get the final rose at that point.
Caila Quinn – Very positive, fun, and likable; however, our concern is that Ben called her a “friend” about five times during their first date together.
Serious contenders
Lauren Bushnell – Tons of chemistry, and you could tell at the last group date that he really couldn’t wait to just get away and spend time with her. We don’t think his mind is made up per se, but he’s definitely into her.
JoJo Fletcher – We’re not sure that there is the same sort of passion here just yet as there is with Lauren, but we’d say that there is a greater emotional connection and JoJo has already shown just how supportive she can be of him.
