Welp.
That didn’t last long.
About a week after she was officially named the next Bachelorette, Charity Lawson says she has found love.
Potentially, that is. He found it potential for love.
The former Bachelor suitor – who took Zach Shallcross home to meet her family this spring, only to be dumped by a tech executive – recently finished shooting the very first night of her season The Bachelorette.
You know one, right?

“It was great,” Charity told Entertainment Tonight about this unusual experience. “I’m a little dizzy. It’s definitely terrifying. I had a great group of boys… I laughed all night.”

“I took the time to work on myself and was even more prepared for what I wanted to do, so I was ready.”
