Bachelor Nation agrees that The Bachelor's Hannah Ann Sluss should have been the new star of The Bachelorette instead of Clare Crawley. Given the young model's ballsy performance on Tuesday's The Bachelor season 24 finale, her season would have been one for the books.
Hannah Ann showed up and showed out during her gut-wrenching reunion with former fiancé Peter Weber. Viewers were shown the dramatic end of her relationship with him, as well as his reconciliation with Madison. Hannah Ann walked onto the set in a bold crimson cocktail dress. Her first act of dominance over Peter was when he went to embrace her and she gave him a platonic side-hug instead. They sat down and Peter spoke about what a sweet girl she is. Hannah Ann, on the other hand, had fewer good things to say about her ex. In fact, she took the finale as an opportunity to deep-dive into some of his inferior personality traits.
Hannah Ann wasted no time before jumping into the real problem: Peter's indecisiveness. She said, "Even after our breakup, you reached out to my parents saying that you were just processing your emotions and that you wished more than anything we had met outside of reality TV. How does that make any sense? You signed up to be the Bachelor. You told me these things that I held onto." Hannah Ann continued, "You didn’t respect me enough to have that open conversation with me." She then told off Peter with one final line, that has since become iconic: "Word of advice, if you want to be with a woman, you need to become a real man."
Hannah Ann started off the season as a villain, following "Champagne-gate" with Kelsey. As the season progressed, she continued to deepen her connection with Peter while the other women's numbers dwindled. What makes her a better choice for the lead in the franchise is her ability to make Bachelor Nation fall in love with her en masse. Viewers are praising Hannah Ann for her acerbic insights and unflinching commentary on Peter's behavior. Even fans who were on the fence about Hannah Ann before the finale are now singing her praises.
There are some amazing parallels between Hannah Ann and Clare Crawley. Both are smart and beautiful women who looked into the souls of the men who did them wrong and pumped the brakes on their offending behavior. Still, one can't help but wonder why the producers of The Bachelorette would gift Clare Crawley with her own season six years after she stood up to Juan Pablo. And why they would now when there's so much fresh and relevant content starring Hannah Ann. She was so articulate when she dumped Peter and told him how he had disappointed her. Maybe ABC wanted to put an end to the Hannah Brown dynasty once and for all, or maybe they felt that Hannah Ann was too young and heartbroken to handle her own season. Whatever the reason, the finale should not have been Hannah Ann's last stand. In the words of Peter's mom, Barb, "Bring her home to us."
The Bachelorette premieres May 18th on ABC.
