Can we expect a “ick”-free reality series?
Hanna Friberg hosts “Bachelor in paradise”.
– I’m looking forward to wearing all the incredible dresses, she says.
“Bachelor in paradise” where singles from previous seasons of “Bachelor” and “Bachelorette” dating returns on TV4.
Now it is clear that the influencer Hanna Friberg31, will host next season.
– I have never done anything like this before. So I was shocked that they asked me, she says.
– I had other TV jobs to do during the period we were recording. So I was like, “if you want me, it’s fast pucks”. It went really fast and felt completely unreal when I got the call that “TV4 wants you and now you will host the program”. It’s absolutely incredible.
The recording has started
Friberg is in Greece to start filming the season.
– It’s so warm and nice. We have just been out for an evening walk. Now we have gone a second time to the buffet to eat some snacks.
– We look forward to following all the participants about what happens. I look forward to wearing all the incredible dresses. Everything will be great fun.
Denying the speculation
In social media, it has been hinted that Hanna Friberg will lead the program. The hint has also fueled speculation that Friberg would be the new bachelorette.
It’s not like that – but it could have been like that several years ago.
– I was actually asked the first season they did “Bachelorette”. When they then chose Julia Franzen. So then I was at the final casting. I think they chose between me and Julia.
– But now I feel that I want to do this. This feels so much more fun, she says about the new presenter assignment.
Cryptic words about love
Hanna Friberg has spoken openly about her own dating life and has previously told that she “loves to date”.
When Aftonbladet asks how things are going with love, Friberg gives a cryptic answer.
– It feels tingly and wonderful. I feel very happy.
Are you meeting someone?
– No. Or, no. It just feels edgy. So that’s just the general feeling right now.
But you don’t meet anyone?
I don’t know that. No, so like this. No, I don’t. It’s just edgy and summery and lovely.
“Bachelor in paradise” premieres on TV4 Play this autumn.
