HGTV Taps Bachelor Franchise Alumni for Bachelor Mansion Takeover

Twelve former Bachelor, Bachelorette, Golden Bachelor and Golden Bachelorette contestants are coming together for the new HGTV competition series Bachelor Mansion Takeover.

Hosted by Jesse Palmer, the series will see franchise alumni take part in challenges to transform the spaces of the famous Bachelor Mansion, including iconic and never-before-seen rooms. Judges Tayshia Adams and Tyler Cameron will ultimately select one Bachelor alum at the very end to win a $100,000 cash prize.

“When we learned the Bachelor Mansion needed a serious makeover, we knew only HGTV could give the iconic property a renovation worthy of the name,” said Howard Lee, chief creative officer for U.S. networks at Warner Bros. Discovery. “We’re welcoming fan favorites and memorable cast members from throughout Bachelor history to the HGTV family and can’t wait to see what they get up to in this first-of-its-kind competition for the network.”

Among the contestants for the first season are Dean Bell, Jill Chin, Noah Erb, Allyshia Gupta, Tammy Ly, Sandra Mason, Sam McKinney, Brendan Morais, Courtney Robertson Preciado, Jeremy Simon, Christopher Stallworth and Joan Vassos.

The series is set to premiere in 2026. It is distributed by Warner Horizon Unscripted Television, a Warner Bros. Television Group Company.
