You won’t believe how much Bachelor contestants make for appearing on the show, and you’ll be surprised how they make it.

I’d always thought how much Bachelor contestants make depends on the number of episodes they manage to hang in there. But AT&T’s All Home Connections reveals that I’ve been so wrong! The real bucks come from social media influencer earnings. And I was overwhelmed by how much they make!

For example, Hannah Brown now has 2.6 million followers, and gets a whopping $5,260–$8,767… per post! Holy crap! Granted, she went on to become The Bachorlette and win Dancing With the Stars, but even Victoria Paul, who is estimated to make the least amount of money per post of contestants from Season 24, makes $751–$1,252 per post.

It seems that on average, contestants of the show see an 11,403% increase in followers. That’s wild!

More fascinating facts about how much Bachelor contestants make:

• Madison and Hannah Ann, the final two contestants on The Bachelor season twenty-four, may have been neck-and-neck for Peter’s heart, but Madison’s average likes count of 211,096 was more than double Hannah Ann’s (100,274).

• By the end of the season, almost every contestant on The Bachelor season twenty-four had over 3,000 Instagram followers, qualifying them as micro influencers (typically someone with anywhere from 3,000 to 50,000 followers). Small creators, as they’re dubbed, can earn anywhere from $100 to $2,000 per post, plus brand products and swag.

• Victoria Fuller, a contestant on season twenty-four, currently has the highest estimated engagement rate of any contestant from either season (13.8%). She has a higher engagement rate than Madison Prewett (11.73%), even though Madison was the favorite to win and Victoria was the season’s villain.
