You’re probably familiar with ABC-TV’s The Bachelorette. But how about the Web series, The Mormon Bachelorette? In its third season starting July 1, the online show will feature bachelorette Ashley Chapman of Mesa as she embarks on a series of dates to find her Mormon Mr. Right.
According to a news release, Chapman was chosen over 14 other contestants who submitted homemade videos in hopes of being the next Mormon Bachelorette. She will have 22 men to choose from as each vies to be the one Chapman will introduce to her family in Monticello, Utah at the end of July.
The Mormon Bachelorette was started by best friends Erin Elton and Aubrey Messick Laidlaw in an attempt to find a husband for Aubrey, according to the news release. The first season ended with Messick choosing Matt Laidlaw. The two were engaged two months later and then married last March. They are now expecting a baby.
The second season focused on a Mormon bachelor, Rick Buck, seeking his LDS lady love. He chose Melanie Carney, and the two are dating exclusively.

To think I almost missed this entire event. Are you sure it's not a follow-up to The Book of Mormon?
