Former Bachelorette star Ali Fedotwosky and her new fiance Roberto Martinez are making it clear who they think ABC should pick as the next bachelor.
In an interview with reporters this week the reality star couple both named Bachelorette runner up Chris Lambton as the best choice to give out the roses during the show’s next season. “I think the obvious choice is – I would say it’s Chris,” Roberto said of his friend who found sudden fame and a huge female following on the reality show. Ali echoed Roberto saying, “I think, you know, if Chris chooses to do it, I think it’s his….I just want him to be happy and we wish him the absolute best.”

While Chris says he’s ready to fall in love again and settle down he’s not completely sold on the idea of putting his love life in the national spotlight again. “It’s something that I’ll have to think long and hard about,” Chris admitted. “It was hard watching, you know, so much of my personal life and intimate details of like dating and love on TV. And, you know, it’s hard to share that kind of thing with many millions of people who watch the show.”

Chris went on to admit he’s been getting a lot of attention from women of all ages since The Bachelorette finale aired on Monday. He says love is being thrown his way and other members of his family are feeling it too. “My dad’s probably gotten as many letters and E-mails asking him out as I’ve gotten asking me out,” Chris revealed.
A rep for ABC tells dampfang.com, “We don’t know when we will announce the next Bachelor.”
