The Bachelorette will premiere in October as Clare Crawley is seen in a new poster

Season 16 of The Bachelorette finally has a premiere date.

The reality TV show, which was filmed in the Palm Springs area this summer, will premiere on October 13, it was revealed on Thursday, as a new poster for the franchise debuted.

In the image, Clare Crawley is seen holding a long-stemmed red rose up as she rests her other hand on her upper arm.

The beauty has on a silver velvet blazer over a low-cut V-neck top and skintight blue denim jeans. She added a bit of evening glam with strappy silver heels that showed off her toes.

In front is a man pulling up his grey striped socks; his face cannot be seen.

There is an ABC logo as well as the air date: Tuesday, October 13. 

A caption reads, ‘Get ready Bachelor Nation! Clare Crawley’s season of The Bachelorette premieres Tuesday, October 13th at 8/7c on ABC. It’s about time.’ A single red rose emoji was added. 

Missing from the preview is Tayshia Adams, who is reportedly the replacement for Clare after she fell for contestant Dale Moss before filming even began.

Several sources have claimed that she quit the show two weeks in because she was not comfortable going on dates with eligible bachelors when her heart already belonged to 31-year-old former football player Moss.

It has also been alleged that Clare is already engaged to Dale.  

In a new TV promo shared last week, the 39-year-old blonde beauty is front and center as she plays around with a red rose.  

There is a silhouette of a blonde woman and then Clare is seen in a cream colored dress as she pulls off the petals of a red rose as the sing Respect plays.

‘What you want, baby we’ve got it #TheBachelorette is coming to Tuesdays on ABC,’ read the tweet that went with the clip.  

Clare reportedly quit two weeks into production after she had met and fallen for Moss before filming had begun.  

The Bachelorette producers were reportedly ‘scrambling’ and ‘frantic’ to come up with a plan to get the show on track.

‘They had to find a way to continue the show without just starting from scratch,’ production sources added.

Crawley, who was runner-up on Season 14 of The Bachelor in 2014, reportedly didn’t want to ‘deceive viewers’ as her reason for leaving so abruptly.

The Bachelorette producers reportedly reached out to other potential contestants who they had vetted for Season 16.

‘When producers reached back out, out of the blue, it was very apparent that something had happened with production,’ the source added. 

Adams, 29, who appeared on Colton Underwood’s season of The Bachelor in 2018, has reportedly come aboard to replace Crawley, though it has yet to be confirmed by ABC at this time.

The season already made history, as the first to be set outside the Bachelor Mansion, taking place at La Quinta Resort & Club in La Quinta, California.

This season will also make history in another way, with Adams reportedly becoming the ‘second lead’ and Season 16 reportedly featuring both Crawley and Adams. 

Adams is reportedly currently on set of the new season, which was originally delayed due to the COVID-19 pandemic. 

After appearing on Underwood’s season of The Bachelor, Adams appeared on Season 6 of Bachelor in Paradise.

She dated John Paul Jones on the show, and afterwards, though they split in September 2019.

Crawley was previously engaged to Benoit Beauséjour-Savard briefly, though they split in April 2018.
