Chris Harrison bachelorette contestants rachel lindsayMeet Bachelorette Rachel Lindsay’s 31 suitors, whom Chris Harrison describes as the “most successful, most diverse and of course, the most dramatic cast we’ve ever had” (photos and bios, included!)

Who’s ready to hand out some roses? Longtime Bachelor host Chris Harrison announced the upcoming season 13 cast of The Bachelorette on Wednesday, May 17, and the group of suitors–very much like Rachel Lindsay—are among the most accomplished batch in franchise history.

“Thirty-one guys will be showing up on night one to meet Rachel,” Harrison shared via Facebook Live. “They will be battling to win her heart and hopefully find love.” Lindsay, 31, an attorney from Dallas, was a final four contestant on Nick Viall’s season of The Bachelor.

Harrison introduced each suitor along with a brief note about how he may (or may not) stand out this season. “They are part of the most successful, most diverse and of course, the most dramatic cast we’ve ever had on the show,” the TV personality teased. The Knot rounds up the complete list below.
