When fans watch any of The Bachelor shows, there is bound to be drama. It’s one of the things that draws some viewers in. Jesse revealed that there will be some of the same situations occur on the senior version as well. However, what makes this new version different is the level of maturity the ladies bring to the table.
Jesse said in regard to drama being a part of the season, “They do, but there’s a different maturity level. And I think that just comes from experience in life and emotional maturity as well that the women, that Gerry, have. And the way that they decipher problems, the way that they think about some of the situations that they’re in—whenever they face adversity, it’s pretty interesting. It’s a very, very resilient group of people. That’s probably been one of the more surprising things for me.”

Jesse also shared that the confidence the women show while getting out of the limo is amazing. He said it was like nothing he had ever seen before. Jesse said these women shine in every situation thrown at them.
