ABC’s The Bachelorette Production Halted Due To Coronavirus Fears – What You Need To Know!

It looks like there are some people out there who will have to wait a little bit longer before they find their true love. Actually, they will have to wait until the novel coronavirus that has caused this global pandemic will go away but unfortunately, it doesn’t look like that will happen anytime soon. New reports indicate that the production of The Bachelorette has been put on hold to hopefully help stop the spread of the virus which would certainly make sense, seeing how many of the contestants get up close and personal with the show’s star.

TMZ reports that the contestants and crew were supposed to begin taping on Friday, March 13th, but because of the coronavirus outbreak, they will postpone production until further notice. This comes as a huge disappointment for fans of the hit reality dating show, as they were looking forward to seeing Clare Crawley’s season. However, a representative for Warner Bros. explained that they made the decision for everyone’s health and safety.

The statement said, “With the rapidly changing events related to COVID-19, and out of an abundance of caution, Warner Bros. Television Group is halting production on some of our 70+ series and pilots currently filming or about to begin. There have been no confirmed cases of COVID-19 on any of our productions, but the health and safety of our employees, casts, and crews remain our top priority. During this time, we will continue to follow the guidance of the Centers for Disease Control as well as local officials and public health professionals in each city where our productions are based.”

So far the ABC network has not made any comments as to when production will start up again. TMZ suggested that it might start as soon as Sunday while Reality Steve hinted that the season might be canceled altogether.

The Bachelorette was set to premiere on Monday, May 18th, but right now it’s unclear if that date will be pushed back. So far Warner Bros. has not made any additional comments while Clare Crawley herself has remained quiet about the reports.
