[Spoiler Warning: Please stop reading now if you don’t want to learn who received The Bachelorette star Jenn Tran’s First Impression Rose].
Jenn had 25 bachelors to choose from on Night 1 at Hummingbird Nest Ranch in Santa Susana, CA — not at the usual Bachelor mansion in Malibu — when the show began filming in late March, and production has already wrapped.

When The Bachelorette’s 21st season premieres Monday, July 8 at 8PM ET/PT on ABC, fans will watch Jenn hand out her first rose after having her heart broken by Joey Graziadei on The Bachelor’s 26th season.
The recipient of Jenn’s very first — and special — rose of the season was Sam McKinney, a 27-year-old contractor from Myrtle Beach, SC, according to Reality Steve spoiler blogger Steve Carbone.
Carbone had posted this spoiler on X, formerly known as Twitter, on June 6.
When the show airs, the coveted First Impression Rose will enable Sam M. to feel confident in pursuing a relationship with the Miami-based Physician Assistant student.
Not only will the rose keep Sam M. safe from elimination on Night 1, but he will also be able to relax during the season’s first Rose Ceremony and not have to anxiously await his name being called among the season’s 24 other bachelors.
Many former The Bachelorettes stars — including Kaitlyn Bristowe, JoJo Fletcher, Rachel Lindsay, Becca Kufrin, Clare Crawley, Rachel Recchia, Michelle Young — ironically all ended up choosing and getting engaged to their First-Impression Rose recipient in the end.
The men who had received the first rose were Shawn Booth, Jordan Rodgers, Bryan Abasolo, Garrett Yrigoyen, Dale Moss, Tino Franco, and Nayte Olukoya, respectively.
A good first impression can therefore go a very long way; however, JoJo is the only woman mentioned above who is still together with her final pick.
In a promo of Jenn’s upcoming The Bachelorette season, Jenn boasts about how she’s “going to fall in love” and is “going to do it my way.”
She adds, “I feel more confident than ever. I feel like the main character in my own love story.”

Jenn recently teased of The Bachelorette’s 21st season in an interview with former The Bachelorette star Kaitlyn Bristowe at CMA Fest, “The ending of my season is also something that has never happened before.”
Jenn, however, declined to share details about her supposed never-before-seen outcome of The Bachelorette.
The Bachelorette host Jesse Palmer recently teased in one of Jenn’s Instagram comments that calling her The Bachelorette season “crazy” is “an understatement.”
Earlier this year, Jenn spoke to Entertainment Tonight about how viewers are “not going to get” a polished version of herself when they tune in and watch The Bachelorette this summer.
“You’re not going to get ‘[Meek] and Perfect Jenn.’ You’re going to get ‘Crazy Jenn,’ and that’s the beautiful part of it,” Jenn said of her approach to dating on The Bachelorette.
Jenn said viewers will witness her “fiery energy” and flirtatious nature.
Jenn also mentioned how she hoped to end up with a confident and playful man who will “ground” her but also be silly and have a cheeky banter with her.
