Nick Viall News 2015: Is The Reality Star Upset That He Didn’t Get Picked To Be The Next ‘Bachelor?’ [VIDEO]
Even though Nick Viall has tried to look for love on television several times now, it looks like he won't be getting his big chance anytime soon. In fact, there's a new report that says Viall is going to have to look for a wife off-screen as Ben Higgins was announced as the Bachelor for season 20 this past week.

But for the 34-year-old controversial hunk, it looks like he's not shedding any tears about it - yet. He did have nothing but words of praise for Higgins, who participated in season 11 with Viall.
"I think ABC made a great choice," Viall told Us Weekly of Higgins. "I think he's one of the few people that actually lives up to the hype. He's a very sweet guy and now that he's the leading guy I hope we get to see the other great sides of Ben. Ben has an edge and I hope that he shows it!"
Higgins himself rooted for his pal Viall, especially when he was dumped by Bachelorette star Kaitlyn Bristowe while he was in the middle of his marriage proposal to her. Andi Dorfman did the same thing when she dumped him to accept Josh Murray's proposal back in 2014.
Higgins defended his friend by saying, "I think when you do this experience, you realize it's real. It's not always fun ... I just think that he would have to be legally insane if he thought this was just a cool opportunity to come back and maybe be The Bachelor. That would be a huge risk. So yeah, I think he was here for the 'right reasons.'"
