“The Bachelor” just wrapped up Season 27 with an emotional finale fans won’t soon forget, but that doesn’t mean there’s a shortage of love quests in Bachelor Nation.
In fact, there’s one right around the corner.
A new season of “The Bachelorette” is on the way, and it’s one that will see former “Bachelor” contestant Charity Lawson take the lead. Fans were treated to a sneak peek at the end of Monday night’s big finale.
Learn about what’s to come on Season 20 of “The Bachelorette,” and when it’s coming to the small screen.
Unlike any other season so far
“The Bachelorette” is packing a big twist this time around, and it’s one Lawson only learned about when she started filming the first episode.
The teaser trailer kicked off with host Jesse Palmer explaining to Lawson that one of the men she was about to meet in front of the show’s mansion was someone she already knew.
“No,” the 27-year-old said, looking genuinely nervous. “No, no, no.”
“You both have a history together,” Palmer added.
That news left Lawson shaking. But before long, she was laughing as she saw who stepped out of the limo that pulled up next to her. The man decked out in a sharp gray suit and burgundy bowtie was Lawson’s big brother, Nehemiah.

He told his curious sibling that he wanted to surprise her, but it was his voice over in the preview that told viewers what was really going on.
“I’m on the lookout, because men can be dogs,” he explained. “I have a plan. It involves a disguise.”
As Nehemiah’s words rang out, the video showed him wearing a wig, a hat, eyeglasses and a glued-on mustache that looked like it was ripped straight from the lip of Steve Harvey.
“It’s going to help me really find out more about these guys,” he continued. “To see if they’re really here for her for the right reasons, or if it’s time to get them out. I’m about to become ‘Undercover Brother.’”
To say fans on social media had a reaction to the twist, named after the Eddie Griffin-led 2002 spy comedy, would be an understatement.
Some loved it:
Some couldn’t believe it:
But everyone seemed to agree that Nehemiah’s role alone was reason enough to give the next season a shot.
