‘The Bachelor’ 2017 With Nick Viall Begins Filming In Wisconsin [PHOTOS]

Its happening, “Bachelor” fans. Filming for Nick Viall’s season of the ABC reality show is currently underway.

“Bachelor” blogger Reality Steve took to Twitter on Tuesday to share a photo of the 35-year-old “runner-up” in his hometown of Waukesha, Wisconsin. According to the post, Nick is shooting some of his intro video. He was also reportedly spotted at the Riverwalk in downtown Waukesha, as well as the town’s “best coffee shop,” The Steaming Cup. The Waukesha Public Library posted a photo of the camera crew outside of the coffee shop.

The upcoming season of “The Bachelor” is not without controversy. Fans were rooting for JoJo Fletcher castoff’s Luke Pell or Chase McNary to become the Season 21 star. Luke reportedly signed a deal and had his bags packed to fly out for filming when the network decided to go with Nick, who was a former contestant on Andi Dorfman and Kaitlyn Bristowe’s season of “The Bachelorette.” There were also reports that Nick dumped his “Bachelor in Paradise” co-star Jen Saviano when approached with the offer for “The Bachelor.”

He’ll be trying his luck at finding love on “The Bachelor” franchise for a fourth time when Season 21 premieres in 2017. Follow @AmandaTVScoop for more updates on filming.
