In Episode 5 of The Bachelor, COVID took Zach Shallcross out of the dating game, but he’s now out of quarantine and back in action. However, in a surprising turn of events, the preview for the remainder of Season 27 shows Shallcross and contestant Ariel Frenkel having their one-on-one date at a nudist sauna. While things get heated between the couple, an older naked couple interrupts their steamy session. Despite the interruption, the two will significantly strengthen their bond in the coming weeks as they make out in front of the franchise’s famous firework displays. It remains to be seen if Frenkel will get a Hometown Date and make it to Shallcross’ final three women.
Frenkel is a 28-year-old marketing executive from New York City. She made a memorable entrance on Night 1, telling Shallcross that nothing was going to stop her from coming to date him, despite missed flights, broken suitcases, and ripped dresses. Frenkel is described as a thrill-seeker, adventurous, sophisticated, unapologetically herself, and is looking for a man who can match her energy. She comes from a big, loving Ukrainian family and has traveled extensively, from Europe to Asia to South America.
Reality Steve’s spoilers reveal that Frenkel has a one-on-one date with Shallcross in Estonia during Episode 6, which secures her a spot in Episode 7. She’s also one of the four women who get a hometown date in Episode 8, where she takes Shallcross to New York. While Frenkel reportedly makes it to his final three, she is eliminated after overnights, leaving Kaity Biggar and Gabby Elnicki as the final two. According to Reality Steve, Biggar and Shallcross get engaged in the finale.
To keep up with Frenkel’s journey on the show, fans can follow her on Instagram at @afrenkel1, where she currently has 17,000 followers. New episodes of The Bachelor Season 27 premiere on Mondays at 8 p.m. ET on ABC and are available for next-day streaming on Hulu.
