Maria Georgas was signed, sealed, and ready to become the next Bachelorette.
“I was offered the role. It was mine until I said it wasn’t,” Georgas said during her Call Her Daddy podcast appearance on Wednesday. “It became very overwhelming to the point where I had to decline.”
Georgas said that she’s “been trying my hardest to stay silent” about what happened in order to support Jenn Tran, but wanted to “be honest” going forward.
It got so far along, she told Alex Cooper, that she was “doing fittings” for the show.
“It was set in stone. I was in it,” Georgas said. “When everyone around me was so supportive of me being in this position and everyone wanted this for me, I took a second. I’m like, why am I not happy? Why am I not excited about this? It took me realizing that it’s just not my time where I was like, respectfully, I need to decline. I need to take a step back.”
Georgas said she was “not in the right headspace” to be The Bachelorette star.
“I know the extensive process it was to be on the show. So having a bunch of guys do the exact same thing — and they’re there for me — I didn’t want to waste anyone’s time,” Maria added. “It was hard for me to kind of jump right back into it, honestly.”
Georgas was a fan favorite during Joey Graziadei’s season of The Bachelor, which ended earlier this year. She made it to the final four and was eliminated following hometown dates.
Cooper said that Georgas was scheduled to make an appearance on the podcast in March to announce herself as the Bachelorette.
“Everyone was so excited, and I know what this season could have been like, and it would’ve been great,” Georgas said. “I just was not ready.”
The next season of The Bachelorette bows on ABC in July.
