Eliminations are inevitable for the game and this is a reality TV show. While Stanton knew what she was signing up for, it was very hard to watch. According to Bustle, Stanton's love story is unfinished and that it is a key reason she should be the next Bachelorette.

The timing for Stanton's rejection was difficult since she had just introduced Higgins to her two daughters. A different report from the same publication unveiled that Stanton made it clear that Higgins meeting her daughters was a big deal and that she would not allow it unless she was certain it was the right move. The last episode was difficult to see her come out, leaving her life, and doing what she could to be there with Higgins and then being sent packing.

Here are seven reasons why Stanton deserves a redo on the reality show as the next Bachelorette.

1. Wonderful Mother

Stanton is a great mother who is committed to her girls, and she is in for a man to love both her and the daughters. It would be compelling to see such a storyline on the next season of "The Bachelorette."

2. Committed Fan of "The Bachelor"

While Stanton knew this season would not favor her, she still watched the show and supported it. She is not only a contestant but also a loyal viewer, which would be fair for her as the star of "The Bachelorette."

3. Open-mindedness

Stanton does not allow anyone to look down on her. When Olivia Caridi commented negatively about Stanton being a young mother, the latter stood up for herself and explained her point of view to Higgins.

4. A Good Sport

Stanton had no poor attitude when other girls on the show got one-on-one dates or special attention from Higgins. Besides, she ended up becoming good friends with other contestants. Stanton and Lauren Bushnell were besties throughout their experience on "The Bachelor."

5. Balancing It All

Stanton is good at managing her priorities. She can have a fantastic relationship with friends, be a reliable parent for her girls, and do well in her career as an esthetician. It is clear that Stanton knows how to manage her time and relationships.
