ABC names Ben Flajnik as next 'Bachelor'

NEW YORK (AP) - September 6, 2011

The network confirms it has tapped the 28-year-old northern California winemaker to star in the next season of "The Bachelor."

The show will return in January for its 16th season.

On "The Bachelor," single women live in a house together and compete for the affection of a single man. So far, no bachelor has gone on to marry the woman he picked while on the show.

Hebert is now engaged to J.P. Rosenbaum. She chose him in the season finale of "The Bachelorette."
