Season chronology | |
The sixteenth season of The Bachelorette features Clare Crawley, a 39-year-old hairstylist from Sacramento, California, and Tayshia Adams, a 30-year-old former phlebotomist from Corona del Mar, Newport Beach.[1][2] The season was originally set to premiere on May 18, 2020, but was postponed to October 13, 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[3][4] The season also aired on Tuesday nights instead of its regular Monday night timeslot.[5]
Crawley was the runner-up on the 18th season of The Bachelor featuring Juan Pablo Galavis. She also made appearances on seasons one and two of Bachelor in Paradise, and on Bachelor Winter Games. At 39, Crawley is the oldest Bachelorette in the show's history, taking over from Rachel Lindsay who was 32 on her season.[6]
Adams was a runner-up on the 23rd season of The Bachelor featuring Colton Underwood. She also made an appearance on season six of Bachelor in Paradise.
This was the first American Bachelorette season to have two leads; the first New Zealand season and the sixth Australian season were the first two versions to do so, although the Australian version was filmed after this season but aired a week before the season premiere.
Production
Casting
Clare Crawley was named as the Bachelorette on Good Morning America on March 2, 2020.[1] Some of the other women who were considered for the role include season 22's Tia Booth and Kendall Long, season 23's Tayshia Adams and Katie Morton, previous Bachelorette Hannah Brown, and season 24's Kelsey Weier. Adams would eventually take the role after Crawley's dismissal from the show (see below).[7]
Notable contestants for this season include college football player Dale Moss and Jason Foster.
Development and filming
For the first time since the second season of The Bachelorette in 2004, the dates and travel would have to take place entirely within the United States because of growing concerns about the novel coronavirus due to the ongoing pandemic. Filming was scheduled to begin on March 13, 2020, but with the aforementioned pandemic growing rapidly, the season was forced to suspend production and filming was postponed to a later date. The initial destinations for the season including visits to Chattanooga, Tennessee, Iceland, Italy and Croatia, but were called off by the production crew due to factors of the worsening outbreak.[8][9][10] On June 17, 2020, it was announced that the season was scheduled to premiere in fall 2020.[5] The following day, it was announced that production was set to begin in July, with the show becoming the first non-scripted American television program to begin production since the start of the pandemic. Production decided to change into an alternative single location at La Quinta Resort & Club in La Quinta, California began in early July with a 7-day quarantine for the contestants and crew before filming, although all of the dates would be taking place right inside the resort limits to avoid pandemic restrictions. This was for the first time since season eight being not filmed traditionally at Villa de La Vina mansion in Agoura Hills, California normally in the first few weeks of the competition.[11]
During filming in August 2020, host Chris Harrison had to go into a two-week quarantine after taking time to help his son move into his dorm at Texas Christian University. Season twelve Bachelorette JoJo Fletcher temporarily took over hosting duties during that period.[12]
Lead replacement
Crawley dismissed the show in the fourth episode after became engaged to Dale Moss. Tayshia Adams replaced Crawley as the Bachelorette, and continued on to the show. Given the unique parameters of this season due to the pandemic, Adams' season did not "restart" upon her arrival. Rather, all of the remaining contestants from Crawley's season plus an additional four men stayed to win over Adams' heart.[13]
Contestants
32 potential contestants were revealed on March 11, 2020.[14] Host Chris Harrison later revealed that they would likely be recasting the season due to the filming delay.[15] One of the intended 32 contestants, Matt James was instead recast as the lead for season 25 of The Bachelor – becoming the first African-American to lead The Bachelor and the third African-American lead of the Bachelor franchise, following Rachel Lindsay from season 13 of The Bachelorette and Tayshia Adams from season 16 of The Bachelorette.[16]
An updated cast list containing 42 potential contestants was released on July 15, 2020.[17]
The season began with 31 contestants.[18] Four new contestants arrived in the fifth episode when Adams became the Bachelorette.[19][20]

Controversy and criticism
During a group date on Week 2, 10 of the men played a game of strip dodgeball and during each round, the contestants were asked to remove a layer of clothing. This date was met with widespread controversy and criticism from fans and alumni alike citing a "double standard".[65]
J.P. Rosenbaum, winner of season 7 of The Bachelorette, wrote on Twitter, "I realize this 'date' is gonna have a lot of critics, but can you imagine the flak the show would get if this was [The Bachelor] and the girls were stripping down to their underwear?" Bachelor franchise podcast host Juliet Litman stated, "If it was women in that position, it would be completely unacceptable, absolutely scandalous and there would be this huge outcry. The double standard of objectifying men's' bodies like that and asking men to be in that position really bothered me because I would not accept it for women." Former Bachelor Ben Higgins stated that, "If this was a Bachelor season, no way this happens, no way they get away with it, no way it's appropriate, no way this just becomes a weekly topic. I think the show is super smart. They knew this wouldn't shut down the show, but it's pushing the envelope a little bit here." Contestant Yosef Aborady admitted that if he was invited to the group date, he would not have played the dodgeball game, stating, "Number one value is to have respect for myself and my daughter. I don't want her turning on the TV and seeing dad's ass." Aborady ended up leaving the show later that week due to disagreements with Crawley over the appropriateness of the date. Many fans expressed disgust with the date on social media.[65]
