The season 21 lead of ‘The Bachelorette’ gave PEOPLE a funny response to being asked about season 22’s production delay
Jenn Tran is laughing off The Bachelorette’s surprising production delay.
Weeks after fans learned season 22 of The Bachelor spinoff wouldn’t be returning for its usual summer slot, the latest lead of The Bachelorette gave PEOPLE a funny response to being asked about the series’ hiatus.
“I don’t know anything about that. Long live Jenn Tran as the last Bachelorette. I’d love that,” quips the reality star, 27, at the Cape Radiance Gala red carpet in Los Angeles on March 24.

The season 21 lead — who attended the gala with her former Dancing with the Stars partner Sasha Farber amid their undefined relationship — previously told PEOPLE her thoughts about the dating show’s hiatus.
“It was a surprise to me. The franchise has been going on for so long. Sometimes you hear things like why [shows go on pause]. I have no idea why and what’s going on there. I really have no idea,” she said last month.
But she theorized at the time why it might have been pushed back.
“The Bachelorette does usually air in the summer when people are traveling — I heard that it doesn’t do as well as The Bachelor, which airs in the fall, where people are home and ready to watch TV,” she added. “So maybe it’ll give a chance for the next Bachelorette to air at a time where there’s more visibility. That would be nice.”

At the Cape Radiance Gala red carpet, Tran also discussed the recent Instagram video of her and Farber, 40, performing a choreographed dance to Sabrina Carpenter’s “15 Minutes.”
“I’m still learning how to dance. I’m getting my bang for my buck,” Tran says, before answering if it’s mandatory to do dance lessons when hanging out with Farber. “Yes, absolutely, right, honey? Right? Yeah,” she says beside Farber to which he replies, “I love to teach her to dance.”
“He’s my landlord, he’s my social media person. He’s everything,” she adds.
