Chris Harrison is dishing on Matt James‘ upcoming season of The Bachelor!

During a new interview, the Bachelor host revealed that Matt didn’t know much about the show before being cast as the new lead, and also had to get used to being in front of the camera.

“It was really funny,” Chris shared with Us Weekly. “There were some times where he would just — we’d be talking a thousand miles an hour and he would just stop and say, ‘Guys, I don’t know what you’re saying.’”

Chris also recalled Matt telling him, “I’ve never done [this]. I don’t know what a rose ceremony is. And we’re like, ‘Oh my gosh.’”

“We had to really go back and learn our ABCs and spoon feed this guy,” Chris continued. “But you know, to your point, there was a sense of innocence [and] naivete that was very endearing about that because he was also real.”

He added: “Everything was happening to him for the first time: group dates, two-on-ones, rose ceremonies. His eyes were just like wide open going, ‘Oh, this is crazy.’”

The new season of The Bachelor premieres on Monday, January 4th at 8pm ET on ABC. Meet the 32 women that will be vying for Matt James‘ heart!

ABC just revealed the 32 women who will be competing for Matt James‘ heart on the upcoming season of The Bachelor and there’s one contestant who stands out among the rest.

A 27-year-old woman from Los Angeles named Victoria has her job occupation listed as “queen” and she likes to refer to herself as Queen Victoria.

In a new interview with Extra, host Chris Harrison said, “Well, obviously, I think a lot of people were talking about the queen, Queen Victoria… Look, she’ll make her mark. Will people love her? We’ll see. And you know, she definitely gets embroiled in some royal controversy… There is one controversy in particular… and how it works… is stunning and it is shocking, it is bizarre… and it’s not just with women on night one, there’s 32 women on night one. I can tell you this — that’s not all the women that will be on this season.”

Chris Harrison is giving a little insight of what to expect during Matt James‘ season of The Bachelor.

The longtime host of the franchise spoke to press about the upcoming season, which just kicked off filming days after wrapping production on The Bachelorette.

“I’ve had a lot of time to Zoom with Matt, talk with him. Same thing with producers, we’ve been on a lot of group chats. Even a little fantasy football,” Chris shared with E! “Because of the pandemic I haven’t been able to hang out with him and intimately get to know him, but I know the type of man he is.”

He continued, “I’ve talked a lot about him with Tyler C and he’s a genuine, good man. He’s the kind of guy you want as The Bachelor. He’s the kind of guy that I think women will be fortunate to fall in love with.”

Stay tuned for more details on when The Bachelor will premiere on ABC.

The Bachelorette, with Clare Crawley, will debut on Tuesday, October 13 at 8/7c.

Colton Underwood is not happy with The Bachelor.

The former football player and star of the series revealed why in an episode of the Reality Steve podcast – and it had to do with his ex Cassie Randolph.

During the appearance, Colton said that his ex was taken “advantage” of with her appearance on The Bachelor: The Greatest Seasons Ever.

“Cass stayed extremely professional and extremely quiet about our breakup .What bugged me was the fact that that show took advantage of her. I get very defensive over people I love and I know Cass is a big girl and she can fight her own battles, but I just know her heart and she doesn’t want to rock the boat and she loves people, even if they abuse her or even if they take advantage of her, which they did,” he said.

He went on to say producers convinced her to go on the show to “get to know her” and discuss her latest ventures.

“I was like, ‘That’s not what they’re going to do to you.’ I wasn’t here to tell her what she can and can’t do, that’s just not who I am. I was like, ‘Do it, but I’m just warning you, this is what’s going to happen. They are going to point questions in my direction. I don’t care how long you talk to them, they are only going to air the parts about us or me.’ Which is what they did,” he went on to say.

Host Chris Harrison pressed her for information about the breakup throughout the interview, despite her insistence on keeping it private.

“I was more frustrated for her, because she just got completely taken advantage of and completely manipulated. You have Chris Harrison pointing questions saying, ‘I sense you don’t want to make Colton mad, or you’re afraid you’re going to upset Colton. It’s like, ‘No, Chris. I literally talked to her the morning of that interview. We’re good.’ Stop worrying about me or painting me to be this controlling or angry person. I’m not angry. If there’s anybody I’m upset about or upset with, it’s you guys.”

“The whole thing with the franchise and them interviewing her is what really bugged me and really upset me,” he added.

Colton recently addressed these rumors about his sexuality.

Chris Harrison is stepping down as the host of The Bachelorette for the next two weeks and JoJo Fletcher is filling in for him.

The longtime host of the Bachelor Nation franchise is unable to work on the show right now as he decided to leave set to drop his son off at college this week. Now, he must quarantine for the next 14 days before he can be around the cast and crew again.

“The moment he got back, Chris was told he could not set foot back on the set until he went through another 14-day quarantine,” an insider told Us Weekly. “The show’s contestants and crew all had to quarantine on the property for 14 days prior to the camera’s rolling. But it didn’t dawn on Chris he’d have to do it all over again if he simply left to take his kid to college.”

The upcoming season of The Bachelorette is being filmed at La Quinta Resort & Club in La Quinta, Calif. The entire season is taking place in that small bubble to make sure everyone stays safe amid the pandemic.

Chris posted the below photo on Instagram earlier this week with the caption, “Just like that he’s gone. Thought dropping the big man off at college @texaschristianuniversity today was going to crush me but all I could feel is pride and excitement. Especially now, so grateful that they have this opportunity. Now go take on the world and have the time of your life my boy.”

A former couple from The Bachelorette just broke up last week after two years together.

Chris Harrison is explaining that they hope to get to work on Clare Crawley‘s season of The Bachelorette when they can.

“Until we can do this show and do it safely, we won’t do it,” Chris told People. “Right now we are just on hold and it’s being postponed. But we’re all chomping at the bit to get back to it and to have Clare be our Bachelorette.”

“Like everybody, she’s frustrated,” Chris said of Clare. “She’s safe and she’s doing what she’s supposed to do, but that means she’s sequestered at home and she lives by herself. Bad timing for Clare. It would have been great right after. She could have been quarantined with the man of her dreams, but now she just has to sit and think about being the Bachelorette.”
