Mike Turitto The Bachelorette Season 22
Turitto was set to appear in The Bachelorette Season 22 to compete for the hand of the leading lady, Taylor Frankie Paul. The Bachelorette Season 22 was to premiere on March 22, 2026, at 8 p.m. ET/PT on ABC.
Taylor is a TikTok influencer, reality TV star, and single mom who went viral for revealing that she and her husband had been “soft-swinging” with other Mormon couples. She also stars in The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives. On March 15, 2026, Taylor appeared on The Bachelorette: Before the First Rose, where she was advised by 18 former leads of the franchise.
The Bachelorette Season 22 would have made history because Taylor would’ve been the first-ever leading lady to have not appeared on any previous season of The Bachelor. With Jesse Palmer as the host, the show would have chronicled Taylor’s romantic journey as 22 single men vie for her heart. They would’ve gone on “one-on-one” dates to form deep connections and “group dates” that normally involve challenges or physical competitions. If one of the men doesn’t receive a rose at the end of every episode, they are eliminated.
Ready for love and to embrace a father-figure role, Turitto is a reformed bad boy who is excited to settle down. He found a new thrill in becoming a father after watching his niece and nephew grow up. He hopes this journey helps him fulfill his bucket list goal of finding the love of his life. Some of the other 22 men in the show include
- Michael Baba
- Ronn Perez
- Richard Van De Water
- Shane Parton
- Rod Strozier
- Trenten Merrill
