The anniversary season (Wednesdays, 8:15 p.m., RTL and in advance on RTL ) has it all: The 18 flirty single men are not only applying for the favor of the tenth “Bachelorette” Jennifer Saro (27) this year. Indirectly, it is also about the sympathies of her sweet companion with the alias “Keksi”. When the Berliner-by-choice retires to her villa in Phuket, Thailand, after her dates, her one-year-old son and her best friend Melli are waiting for her there. Jennifer is Germany’s first single “Bachelorette”. With her Romeos, Jennifer’s message from “Keksi” should provide an extra adrenaline rush.
It starts with an esoteric soul: “Bachelorette” and content creator Jennifer conjures up her near future in the first sentence of the new season: she has “manifested”, i.e. ordered from the universe that she will have a boyfriend in a few weeks: “It will be like this be.” The fact that Jennifer finds her dream partner in the episodes ahead of her is not a question of “if” for her, but of “who”. Does the responsible Cologne “delivery service” RTL Jennifer’s dream type in the range? And which unsolicited applicants does the woman with the power of roses let go back?
First, it gets compassionate as Jennifer opens up heartbreakingly honest about how lonely she’s often felt since becoming pregnant without a partner. Soundtrack: Alone, Alone. Her eyes sparkle with joy when asked about her dream guy: Her visual favorite is “the gardener from ‘Desperate Housewives'”. She can also imagine a “skater boy” or a “gym guy” at her side. Above all, a strong man with whom she can live out her soft side. She has had to be strong enough herself in recent years. Will your order come true?
Self-confident and not at all desperate, Jennifer stands in a green dress on the red carpet, waiting for the boys. They want to get a lead in sympathy with the “Bachelorette” right from the start this year. In return, they like to interpret the rules of the first entrée in their favor.
Chef Alex (27) from Mannheim makes the start. Without further ado, he jumps onto a motorbike and races past two other candidates and their limo in the direction of the villa. With his modern version of the savior on the white horse, he arrives at the “Bachelorette” “sweet” and “sexy”.
André (30), Key Account Manager from Lake Constance, steps onto the red carpet armed with two glasses and a well-chilled bottle of white wine from his home country. How cool he makes sure to be the first to toast the new “Bachelorette”! That forces an honest “Chapeau!” from his competitors. away.
With other applicants, nerves are more of a rollercoaster ride: Although Thomas (29) from Langenhagen, as a salesperson, should be used to making initial contacts, he forgets to tell Jennifer his name. Instead, he ticks off her biographical data in record time. Does he still thaw in the heat of Thailand?
Jesper (24), fashion designer and stylist from Hamburg, has little to do with such nervousness. What does he like about himself? “Everything.” In an outfit he designed himself, he struts down his personal catwalk. The half-Danish presents Jennifer with a “hygge” candle, which should ignite the fire and exude a romantic atmosphere. The other boys from the background give his performance the grade “fresh”.
Jennifer shows particularly positive reactions to the entrées of Adrian (27) from Würselen, Jesaia (27) from Stuttgart and Pedro (31), security technician, owner of washboard abs and chess and Bach fan from Hamburg. But she can also gain a lot from repeat offenders Fynn (25, influencer and “Love Island” finalist from Lüneburg) and gentlemen such as group senior Julian (38), key account manager from Düsseldorf, and David (25), also key account manager . David anyway: He clearly has the pun on his side when he mentions that he comes from a village called “Bore”. With a smile, Jennifer assures her that she will give him a chance despite this heavy mortgage.
The second chance, at least that’s how he sees it, wants to use bartender Oguzhan (27) from Hamburg with Jennifer. In front of the boys, he flirts with the fact that he already knows them from “Tinder” and that they have also dated before. When Jennifer refuses to recognize him at all, he asks her about their “common past”. While Oguzhan thanks fate for “bringing us back together,” Jennifer coolly notes that they certainly “didn’t have anything to do with each other.” Well, there was probably nothing!
The rest of the first rose evening passes in a familiar atmosphere for Jennifer. She decides to reveal her supposedly biggest secret right at the beginning of the season: She tells the eighteen men that there is already a man in her life and that she is a proud mom. The men’s reactions range from temporary shock to recognition of Jennifer’s courage.
The evening ends with the award of roses: Jennifer’s first rose goes to Gianluca (27), sports and health trainer from Munich, the last to bartender Oguzhan, who has to tremble more than he would like. Thomas and Tim travel home without a rose. With whom Jennifer is communicating in Phuket and who could soon call themselves her heart’s Key Account Manager – it’s going to be exciting.
