"The Bachelor" alums Josh Murray and Chris Soules remain fan-favourite. However, they may not return to lead Season 20 of "The Bachelor." In an interview with E! Online, Chris Harrison confirmed that Josh Murray will not be the next bachelor.

"Sure, he's a great guy, but I know we're not having those discussions," the show host told the aforementioned publication.

Chris Harrison also shut down the rumours claiming that Chris Soules will be back to take the second chance of finding true love after his breakup with Whitney Bischoff. So who will be the next bachelor? According to Chris Harrison, the next star is still on the Kaitlyn Bristowe's season of "The Bachelorette."

"Just off the top of my head I can think of four guys. Those guys are still on the show, so it's not hard to figure out who we're interested in," Chris Harrison said.

The abovementioned entertainment news publication speculates that the recently eliminated Ben Zorn or one of the final three contestants Ben Higgins could be giving away the roses the next season.

As for Kaitlyn Bristowe, she believes Ben Higgins should be leading "The Bachelor" Season 20 (2016). Speaking to the People Now, the 29-year-old dance instructor said that Ben Higgins is a "well-rounded and solid guy who knows what he wants."

"Even though he is only 26 I feel like he's a very mature 26. He is such a gentleman, he's funny...he's a really, really, really, solid guy, and, he's extremely handsome," Kaitlyn Bristowe added to the reasons why she thinks Ben Higgins could be the next bachelor.
