Jason Tartick says 'never say never' to being the next 'Bachelor' on this week's 'Playing The Field'

You may remember Jason Tartick from his stint on "The Bachelorette" years ago.
He was vying for Becca Kufrin's heart on season 14 of the show back in 2018. He came in third.

But, following that he actually got engaged to a different "Bachelorette," Kaitlyn Bristowe, a couple of years after her season ended. Their engagement was broken off in 2023.
Since his time on reality television, Tartick, went back to his financial roots and has been helping couples navigate love and the role money plays in relationships.
He's written two books called "Restart Roadmap Rewire and Reset Your Career" and "Talk Money to Me: The 8 Essential Financial Questions to Discuss with Your Partner."

Tartick said that he's been watching this season of "Bachelor in Paradise," and he has some advice for whoever wins the show's $500,000 prize.
"Now with Paradise we have this money pool, $500,000 on the line. I think it's great because you are kind of forcing these conversations, really important conversations that we should be having anyway," Tartick said. "So for whoever does win it, I think the biggest thing is you can't decide what you are going to do with the money or how you are going to do it, or what percentage goes where until you understand everyone, and each individual's relationship with money."
When it comes to whether or not he'd do reality television again, possibly being the next "Bachelor," he didn't rule it out.
"I always say like, you never say never, but I will say since like I don't know what was it, like the last two years there have been five different shows that have approached me to go on and my desire to go back on reality tv is quite low right now, so never say never, but I'd prefer if I was going to go back in for it to be a competition like show but you never know," Tartick said.

There's a growing social media buzz calling for him to be the next "Bachelor," but he said he didn't realize that.

"That's news to me! Some people have sent me these articles that are like these rumors but, yeah, I don't know where all that stuff comes from," he said.
In fact, he said his mom started to joke that he was getting too old for the regular "Bachelor" series.
"My mom was joking around saying, 'Bachelor! You're 36! They have a Golden Bachelor, maybe they'll have a Silver Bachelor, I thought that was pretty funny," Tartick said.
