• Want a sneak peek? Here are all of the spoilers for Clayton’s hometown dates so far:

Clayton Echard’s drama-filled Bachelor season is winding down, meaning there are just a couple of episodes (and rose ceremonies) left. But before Clayton makes it to his finale, there’s still his Women Tell All—and, of course, hometown dates.

Luckily, the king of Bachelor Nation spoilers already has it all figured out. Reality Steve just dropped brand new info about which lucky ladies will earn one of Clayton’s final few roses (and a chance to bring him home to meet their parents).

Ready to get into the gossip? Here’s everything to know about Clayton’s hometown dates:

Wait, what’s a hometown date?

First, a quick recap. If you’re a new viewer, or you’re feeling a little rusty on Bachelor Nation vocabulary, here’s how hometown dates work.

Once the Bachelor picks his final four ladies, he travels to each of their hometowns and spends a day with their friends and/or families. Anything could happen, from super awkward conversations with the fam to shocking self-eliminations. Or, in Michelle Young’s case, a skateboarding date gone (kind of?) wrong.

Which of Clayton’s ladies gets a hometown date?

This season, hometown dates are being kept well under wraps, according to Reality Steve: “What’s amazing is he just traveled to 4 different hometowns starting last Tuesday, and not one picture got out from any of the hometowns,” he wrote on his blog. “I can’t remember the last time that happened.”

But luckily, Steve still has some serious insider intel. The four ladies who will get to bring Clayton to their hometowns are Susie Evans, Gabby Windy, Rachel Recchia, and Serene Russell, he confirmed on Twitter.

Will Clayton and the ladies actually be flying home?

Yes—finally! After many, many seasons stuck on set, the Bachelor is back to jet-setting around the country. Clayton will get to visit his final four contestants’ fams in their real hometowns (no more Katie’s Place fish-catching dates!). FYI, Bachelor Nation hasn’t seen any traveling since Pilot Pete’s season aired back in 2020.

“Susie’s hometown filmed yesterday,” Reality Steve wrote on Nov. 3. “Not confirmed on the remaining order, but guess is Rachel tomorrow in Orlando (she doesn’t live in Chicago anymore), Serene on Saturday in Oklahoma City, & Gabby on Monday in Denver.”

Later, Steve posted another update: “Clayton and Rachel Recchia currently filming at Kings Landing in Apopka, FL which is a canoe and kayak rental place,” he explained. Looks like a pretty nice place to fall in love to me!

What happens during Clayton’s hometown dates?

ABC just dropped a brand new hometowns trailer, and there is a lot going on.

In between bungee jumping and helicopter flights, Clayton really seems to connect with a few of the ladies’ fams. But, some relatives seem concerned. “Who’s gonna be here to pick up the pieces?” someone asks Rachel.

“You better be good to her,” Gabby’s father tells Clayton. “I don’t give a damn about anything else.” (Yikes!)

As far as eliminations go, Steve later wrote that Clayton’s final three will be Gabby, Rachel, and Susie—so it looks like Serene will likely be sent home during the hometowns episode. But it’s a good idea to make an extra-large bowl of popcorn and have some wine at the ready, just in case.

New episodes of The Bachelor air every Monday night at 8:00 p.m. EST on ABC.
