“The Bachelorette” television show could be filming at the La Quinta Resort & Club in La Quinta, rather than the Ritz-Carlton in Rancho Mirage as was previously reported by blogger Stephen Carbone last month.
Carbone, who runs the website RealitySteve.com, tweeted in June that the hit ABC reality television show might use the Ritz-Carlton as the main location for filming its upcoming 16th season with bachelorette Clare Crawley. But on Wednesday Carbone backtracked, saying that filming would instead reportedly take place at the La Quinta Resort.
"Right area, wrong resort," he wrote. "Clare and her guys will be filming her season exclusively at the La Quinta Resort & Club in La Quinta, CA, not the Ritz Carlton Rancho Mirage in Palm Springs. The guys are arriving today."
The resort is still closed to the public due to coronavirus, with an estimated reopening date of Sept. 3. A representative for the hotel could not immediately be reached for comment.
If true, this won't be the first time the La Quinta Resort has played host to a reality show. Contestants in an episode of Bravo's "Top Chef" also stayed at the resort in 2015. To learn more about this, click here:
