After exiting The Golden Bachelor early, Joan Vassos will get a second chance at finding love in the first-ever season of The Golden Bachelorette . Here’s how to watch the series online.
The Golden Bachelorette premieres on Wednesday, Sept. 18 at 8/7c on ABC. If you want to watch the show online, you’ll need to sign up for a live-TV streaming service that includes ABC. But remember, ABC is only offered in select markets, so ALWAYS make sure it’s available in your area before signing up. Keep scrolling to get the best live-TV streaming options for watching The Golden Bachelorette live online — some of which offer free trials so you can even some episodes for free.
( Note: ABC is only available in select markets. Always confirm that your area is eligible for ABC before signing up for a live-TV streaming service. )
How to Watch The Golden Bachelorette Online: Sling TV
If you want to virtually attend every rose ceremony in The Golden Bachelorette , you can sign up for Sling. The service offers three subscription options, but we recommend Sling Blue since it’s the cheapest option that offers ABC in select markets. And, Sling Blue is on sale right now for half off your first month! That means you can sign up for the $45/month subscription for just $22.50. You can cancel your subscription anytime, making this a low-commitment and cost-effective way to watch The Golden Bachelorette online without cable.
DirecTV Stream offers a five-day free trial and a few different subscription options for a variety of prices so you can choose whichever fits your budget. The Choice package is the most popular and offers ABC in certain markets now that the carriage dispute between DirecTV and Disney has been resolved. With the Choice plan, you also get access to over 100 other channels for $108.99/month. But right now, DirecTV Stream is offering $20 off each month for your first three months. That means you’ll only have to pay $88.99/month for three months of this live-TV streaming service. More good news? Since the service offers a five-day free trial, you can watch at least one episode of The Golden Bachelorette for free online.
Looking for another way to watch The Golden Bachelorette premiere online for free? Check out Fubo . This live-TV streaming service offers new users a seven-day free trial and its Pro plan grants subscribers access to ABC. With the $79.99/month Pro subscription, you also get access to over 175 other channels. More good news? You can cancel and change your plan at any time, making Fubo another easy way for watching the show online.
The Hulu + Live TV subscription is one of the more expensive options for watching The Golden Bachelorette without cable, ringing in at $76.99/month. With that being said, you get a lot of content with this bundle subscription. You not only gain access to ABC, but also the entire Hulu streaming library, ESPN+ and Disney+. This is a comprehensive packing for addressing all you cord-cutter needs.

Who Is The Golden Bachelorette ?
Disney announced in May that Joan Vassos — a 61-year-old grandmother and school administrator from Rockville, Md. — would be the first-ever Golden Bachelorette . Bachelor Nation members will remember that Joan was one of the contestants vying for the heart of 71-year-old widow Gerry Turner last fall on the first season of The Golden Bachelor . She quickly emerged as a frontrunner, with her and Gerry bonding over the losses of their longtime spouses, but she abruptly left the show midway through the season to be by her daughter’s side through a medical issue. Her exit left Gerry in tears, and fans hoped this wasn’t the last we’d see of Joan.
Shortly after Disney shared the news of Joan’s casting, soap star Susan Lucci claimed she had been offered The Golden Bachelorette title , but turned it down. “I believe that they contacted my publicist,” she told People magazine, but she decided “it wasn’t for me. But I do love watching.” (ABC told People that Lucci was not offered the role, for the record.)
Cast of The Golden Bachelorette
There will be 24 men vying for Joan’s heart during Season 1 of The Golden Bachelorette . Among them: Bill, a 68-year-old retired videographer; David, a 68-year-old rancher; Gregg, a 64-year-old retired university vice president; and Keith, a 62-year-old “girl-dad.” Get to know the full cast in our gallery below!
