Ezra Frech faces fan calls to join ‘The Bachelor’ franchise

Ezra Frech, a two-time Paralympic gold medalist and current fan favorite on ‘Dancing With the Stars’, is facing public calls to become the next lead on the ABC dating franchise ‘The Bachelor’. The movement gained traction following an Instagram video by pop culture podcaster Morgan Paige, which prompted various fan reactions.

Some observers, including ‘Dancing With the Stars’ castmate and ‘Bachelorette’ alum Tyler Cameron, suggested that the 21-year-old may be too young for the role, recommending he wait a few years. Frech expressed surprise at the speculation, noting he was unaware of the discussions.

Following a social media post of a workout video, the male revue ‘Magic Mike Live’ commented ‘Hired’ on the post. Frech indicated he would need time to process the interest, noting he will be focused on preparing for the 2028 Summer Paralympics in Los Angeles after his current season of ‘Dancing With the Stars’ concludes.
