It looks like producers ofThe BachelorandThe Bachelorettehave pulled another Arie, rose lovers!

At 38 years old, Clare is the oldest Bachelorette in the show’s 17-year history.

(The oldest-ever Bachelor was 40-year-old Byron Velvick, star of season 6.)

It’s also confirmation that producers know there aren’t many (if any?)

true Bachelorette candidates on this season ofThe Bachelor.

LOL, like the producers would want a Bachelorette who is saving herself for marriage.

So what say you, rose lovers?

Does this surprise pick delight or annoy you?

Were you hoping for someone from Peter’s season?
