Will Matt James put a ring on it? It's time to watch The Bachelor 2021 finale tonight, and make sure you stick around for the After the Final Rose special thereafter. Matt James must choose between the two final women, Rachael Kirkconnell and Michelle Young. One will get the final rose and maybe an engagement ring; the other will leave with a broken heart.
In The Bachelor season 25 finale, we will see Matt introduce Rachael and Michelle to his mother and brother, and then enjoy one last date before the final rose ceremony. Matt seemed comfortable with his decision, but a shocking last-minute development looks to threaten the course of his entire journey.

Matt James is a real estate broker, entrepreneur and community organization founder from New York City. He's also best friends with Tyler Cameron, the runner-up from Hannah Brown's The Bachelorette season 15.
Matt was set to appear in Clare's edition until filming was delayed to the COVID-19 pandemic. Before production resumed, ABC announced that Matt would be the new Bachelor and the first Black Bachelor in franchise history.
The Bachelor season 25 follows the Bachelorette's lead in filming entirely in one location. Matt and the cast of 32 women lived in a bubble with host Chris Harrison and the crew at the Nemacolin Woodlands Resort in Pennsylvania.
