• The star of season 21 of ABC's "The Bachelorette" will be announced on Monday night.
• She'll likely be one of the women who competed for Joey Graziadei's heart on season 28 of "The Bachelor."
• According to blogger Reality Steve, there are two frontrunners for "The Bachelorette."

Joey Graziadei's journey to find his future wife on "The Bachelor" will come to a dramatic conclusion on Monday night, with him choosing between Kelsey Anderson, a junior project manager based in New Orleans, and Daisy Kent, an account executive from Minnesota.

But while season 28 of "The Bachelor" might soon be over, there's plenty for Bachelor Nation to look forward to when a lucky lady — most likely one of Joey's runners-up — gets a second chance at love on the next season of "The Bachelorette."

Here's everything we know so far about season 21 of "The Bachelorette."

Bachelor Nation blogger Reality Steve says there are two clear frontrunners for the 2024 Bachelorette.

According to Reality Steve, Joey will end the season engaged to Kelsey. The blogger is seldom wrong, but he did admit that his initial reporting about Daisy winning the season was inaccurate.

If Kelsey does end up with Joey, that leaves a few strong contenders for Bachelorette from Joey's final four: Daisy, Rachel Nance, and Maria Georgas.

Daisy's soft-spoken demeanor and openness about her health journey and cochlear implant drew in Joey and fans of "The Bachelor" as the season progressed. Meanwhile, Rachel, an ICU nurse from Hawaii, was one of the contestants who made Joey laugh the most as they got to know each other. Maria, who Joey described as "a firecracker with swagger" that he couldn't ignore, kept the tennis pro and fellow contestants on their toes until her elimination during hometowns.

According to Reality Steve, the decision is down to Maria and Daisy. Both stars have the largest social media followings of all the season 28 contestants, with fan-favorite Maria leading the pack with 545,000 Instagram followers at the time of publication.

Maria has voiced interest in being the next Bachelorette, telling TheWrap that it would be "an opportunity of a lifetime."

"I would be stupid to turn it down," she said. "It's not something that I was thinking about doing — I never even thought I would even get the chance."

The star of "The Bachelorette" is often announced during the "After the Final Rose" segment, but Steve warned that ABC executives may not pick the lead until the very last minute.
