Things are heating up on Grant Ellis’nseason of The Bachelor!

As more roses are handed out and more tears are shed, Grant’s roster of eligible bachelorettes keeps getting smaller and smaller.

The former basketball phenom might be excited to find his future wife, but he’s been forced to acquaint himself with the messy side of the process as he thins the herd and says farewell to potential future wives.

Who Got Sent Home on ‘The Bachelor’ Week 2?

In week two, Grant parted ways with another four women.

Allyshia, Ella, Rebekah, and Vicky all got sent home following a very emotional rose ceremony.

Ella, a luxury travel host from Los Angeles, seemed to take the news the hardest.

After reassuring herself that she would get a rose, she seemed genuinely shocked when Grant chose to go in a different direction.

The rest of the cast probably would’ve preferred to see Zoe pack her bags. But hey, this wouldn’t be a season of The Bachelor without a good villain!

Let’s take a look back at how we got to this point:

Who Got Sent Home on ‘The Bachelor’ Week 1?

In week one, the casualties included at least one cast member whom X commenters predicted would make it through to the final rounds.

But it wouldn’t be a season of The Bachelor without a whole bunch of surprises.

And even the No-Drama Llama couldn’t save these 25 women from the pain of being left roseless at the end of the night.

It was a cocktail party with consequences as Grant’s journey to the altar got underway in frantic fashion.

As usual, the women lobbied for one-on-one time, and some first impressions just weren’t strong enough to earn a ticket to night two.

So without further ado, let’s check out the full list of women who did not receive roses on Grant’s first night as Bachelor.

Kyleigh is a Retail Manager from Wilmington, N.C. who loves line dancing.

Sadly, she wasn’t able to dance her way into Grant’s heart.

She left the show with grace and dignity, however, wishing the new Bachelor luck on her way out the door.

Savannah is a Wedding Planner from Charlottesville, Virginia. who loves a competitive game of charades.

She brought a wedding cake to night one, and she fought hard for Grant’s attention.

Alas, it seems Grant just couldn’t imagine himself picking out a wedding cake with Savannah. And that’s gotta sting. No matter how you slice it.

Kelsey is an Interior Designer from Brooklyn, New York who wants to study “empire building” under the queen of all momagers, Kris Jenner.

Unfortunately, Kelsey won’t be building an empire with Grant.

She was able to score some one-on-one time with him at the cocktail party, but she still wound up empty-handed at the end of the night.

Next up is Neicey, a pediatrician from Blythewood, South Carolina.

She arrived in a lab coat and pointed out that her medical degree is a sign that she’s not afraid of commitment.

Sadly, it seems this doctor just couldn’t find her way to Grant’s heart.

Bachelor fans on X picked Neicey as an early frontrunner. But it wasn’t meant to be.

Radhika is an Attorney from New York City who is a self-proclaimed Harry Potter nerd.

She may one day receive a letter from Hogwarts, but she did not get a rose from Grant on night one.

And that’s a shame, as we were looking forward to seeing more of her Bollywood-inspired dance moves.

Next we have J’Nae, an Account Coordinator from Colorado Springs, Colorado who says her love language is FaceTime.

Alas, J’Nae wasn’t able to score much facetime with Grant on night one.

As a result, she climbed right back into the limo at the end of the evening.

Finally, there’s Christina, a Marketing Director from Fargo, North Dakota who says her biggest career goal is to start a clothing line inspired by her grandparents.

We suppose the silver lining is that she’ll have more time to devote to that project after not receiving a rose from Grant on night one.

So there you have it, folks. The pool of contestants has already been winnowed down from 25 to 18.

And if all goes according to plan, Grant will be popping the question to one lucky lady in his season finale.

Keep it locked on THG as we continue to update you on all of this season’s triumphs and tears.
