Ben Flajnik is the Next Bachelor

Okay The Bachelor fans, it appears ABC has decided on its next single man to feature on the upcoming season. Ben Flajnik, a 28 year old winemaker from Sonoma, CA, was rejected by Ashley Hebert on The Bachelorette in favor of J.P. Rosenbaum, a decision he didn’t seem to accept well, and now he’ll get the opportunity to be the one doing the rejecting on The Bachelor.
 
Taping of the next season of The Bachelor will be getting underway next month.
 
After being passed over for Rosenbaum, Flajnik was rumored to be dating Jennifer Love Hewitt (a tweet she sent saying she would accept Flajnik’s rose actually started the rumor) . Hewitt denied there was anything between the two in an interview with Ryan Seacrest shortly after Life & Style reported she flew to San Francisco for a date with Flajnik. Hewitt said they met “by coincidence” and that “rumors are rumors!”
