And The Next Bachelorette Is Desiree Hartsock…

Desiree Hartsock will star in this summer’s ninth edition of ABC’s The Bachelorette, Chris Harrison announced tonight during The Bachelor: After the Final Rose.

The 26-year-old fashion designer had strong chemistry with Sean Lowe on this season of The Bachelor, but was ultimately rejected after a tense meet-and-greet with Des’ brother Nate.

Hartsock recently made waves on The Women Tell All when she showed up without bangs.
