“#’After the Final Rose’ Host Emmanuel Acho Promises Franchise’s ‘Most Uncomfortable Conversation’<\/strong>”
\n<\/p>\n

The Bachelor<\/em><\/a> franchise has always had its dramatic and uncomfortable moments, but the host of Season 25\u2019s After the Final Rose<\/em> special, on-air personality and author Emmanuel Acho<\/a>, says to expect things to reach a new level on Monday, March 15.<\/p>\n

\u201cI can fervently say this will be the most uncomfortable conversation in Bachelor<\/em> franchise history,\u201d he said on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert<\/em><\/a> on March 10. \u201cYou\u2019re now mixing love which is one of the strongest emotions along with racial tension which is one of the most toxic and volatile topics of our current day. You\u2019re mixing two incredibly strong and volatile subject matters and weaving them together in one final hour-long episode after the culmination of the show.\u201d<\/p>\n

Acho was tapp<\/a>ed to step in as host following recent controversy in Bachelor Nation. Rachael Kirkconnell, one of the final contestants of the first Bachelor<\/em> season with a Black lead, Matt James<\/a>, was pictured at an Antebellum-themed party in 2018. Regular host Chris Harrison<\/a> defended her then later apologized and issued a statement that he would be stepping away from the franchise, including hosting the finale special.<\/p>\n

Acho told Colbert<\/a> that it\u2019s \u201cmind-blowing\u201d that his Uncomfortable Conversations with a Black Man<\/em>, \u201ca book about racial reconciliation will lead me to now hosting the most uncomfortable episode of one of the most watched shows in our recent history.\u201d<\/p>\n

When the talk show host asked if Acho thinks Harrison should be dismissed from the Bachelor franchise for good, the author said he believes in \u201caccountability\u201d not \u201ccancel culture.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cRight now, he is taking accountability for his actions. For every action, there\u2019s an equal and opposite reaction. That can be a law of Newton or that could just be basic common sense,\u201d Acho explained. \u201cShould he return to that role? You have to decide what\u2019s in the best interest of Chris Harrison, what\u2019s in the best interest of the show and the executive producers, but also what\u2019s in the best interest of the cast.\u201d<\/p>\n
