Rachel Lindsay has some sage advice for the new “Bachelor” lead Grant Ellis — while you’re on the show looking for love … look for a lawyer, too!
The former “Bachelorette” lead tells TMZ the most important thing Grant can do is protect himself if he proposes on the ABC show. RL speaks from experience … as she’s now knee-deep in a bitter divorce with Bryan Abasolo, who she met on the show back in 2017.
Rachel’s romance with Bryan has spiraled into a courtroom nightmare after their 2019 wedding — the chiropractor is now getting $13,000 a month in spousal support from her … and he’s pushing for even more cash!
It’s a bitter fallout from what was a groundbreaking season for the franchise’s first Black lead — but at least she kicked down doors for diversity. Jenn Tran‘s season as the first Asian American ‘Bachelorette’ is airing now … and, up next will be Grant as the second Black ‘Bachelor.’
Her own drama aside, RL’s all about the show’s new complexion, if you will … telling us she’s pumped to see producers keeping it inclusive — but adds it’s not just about the lead, it’s the whole cast that needs a diversity boost.
