The Bachelor: The Greatest Seasons Ever went on a blast way to the past for its latest episode, with the first half of the three-hour broadcast devoted to none other than the man who started it all: Alex Michel.
Spoilers ahead for the first half of the July 6 episode of The Bachelor:The Greatest Seasons Ever.
Unlike many who have appeared on various Bachelor shows, however, Alex has never returned or even reappeared for a chat with Chris Harrison.
Longtime Bachelor Nation fans will remember Alex as the very first star of The Bachelor back in 2002, and his search for love launched a franchise that is still going strong nearly 20 years and several spinoffs later.
