Jef Holm and 'Bachelorette' Star Emily Maynard Planning New Show (Spoilers)
"The Bachelorette" reality star Emily Maynard has said that she would like to have her own spin off series when the current series of The Bachelorette ends next week.
Maynard has loved the attention she’s received throughout the current series of the hit reality TV show, and is thirsty for more fame. Her plan to keep the gravy train moving and to keep her face out there is to star in a spin off series, which would follow closely her new life with fiancé Jef Holm.
The new reality TV show would feature all the back room antics as the new couple prepares for their wedding, and reveal all the trials and tribulations preparing for the special day.
The current season of The Bachelorette ends with the show's finale on July 22, where fans of the show will see a dramatic romantic proposal.
"Emily wants to do a spin-off show which would include the planning of the wedding. She loves to be in front of the camera, and there are multiple offers on the table for her to do other television shows," a source has said according to Radar Online.
The source added: "Emily can't formally have discussions yet because the finale hasn't aired," the source revealed. "But she's really excited to get the date, location and all of the details set so that she can marry Jef and having it air on TV fits in perfectly with her plans."
This season's The Bachelorette was the first to feature a single-mom as the star, but the show has done fantastically well, and Maynard has been hugely popular as the central figure, drawing sympathy and support at all the right times to keep viewers hooked.
Maynard was previously engaged to NASCAR driver Ricky Hendrick when he tragically died in a plane crash in 2004. He died before their daughter, Ricki, 6, was born.
The show was not filmed in the usual Bachelor pad based in Los Angeles. Rather, it was filmed in Charlotte, where Maynard lives. The single mom did not want to move her daughter for her filming and wanted to keep her daughter's routine as normal as possible. A request which show producers agreed to, and something that immediately won fans over to Maynard, who sympathized with a single mother wanting to put her daughter first despite trying to commit to finding new love.
Also interestingly Maynard previously won the Bachelor season starring Brad Womack, but the two broke up after the show. But it now seems that she has found the perfect love as the star of The Bachelorette.
