There are rumors that claim that in the new season of "The Bachelor," Nick Viall will have to choose among the 30 ladies who are fighting to have his heart. This is not the typical 25 contestants which is present in the past seasons of the show.

According to Heavy, one of the girls belongs to Nick's past. There were earlier reports that say that Nick requested the production to cast someone who he still hasn't met before since meeting people from his past would only feel like a waste.

Unfortunately, the production had other plans and added Elizabeth Sandoz in the picture. It was revealed that Nick and Elizabeth had a one night stand after attending a wedding before. A source claims that Nick never contacted her again after their night together, so fans would expect some drama between them in the show.

Elizabeth is also not new to "The Bachelor" as she also has a close relationship with the former bachelor contestant Jade Roper. According to Reality Steve, Elizabeth was Jade's maid of honor during her wedding earlier this year which was also televised. Nick who was also at the same wedding got together with Elizabeth later that night, but chose to never see her again.

Meanwhile, Inquisitr reported that Nick is now down to his final six girls. The production is currently in St. Thomas, Virgin Islands shooting for "The Bachelor" Episode 6. The group will be heading to the Bahamas to shoot Episode 7.

Reality Steve shared on his social media account some photos from the set showing only six girls after just less than two months of filming. Steve did not reveal the names of the women, but he said that fans will have an idea who is included in the coming weeks.

"The Bachelor" Season 21 will air on ABC on January 2, 2017.
