Hilary Duff and Ziwe step in to help Clayton on his group dates on The Bachelor Season 26, Episode 2. Don’t miss a beat of the all-new episode.

Sometimes, a little help from a friend is needed in the dating world. Clayton is going to get some help for a couple of celebrity women instead.

Hilary Duff is the first, and she’ll show up during the first group date. She’s actually there to help the women throw a big Beverly Hills party. Who better than Lizzie Maguire to throw a party?

The second group day will see Ziwe show up. This is a chance for Clayton to learn about red flags to look out for. He’ll need them to help him narrow down his choices.

What about the one-on-one dates on The Bachelor Season 26, Episode 2?

There is going to be a one-on-one date during the episode. Clayton will take one lucky woman out, and she’ll get a chance to form a connection with the man she’s hoping to become her husband. We don’t get to know who that is just yet.

The promo for the episode was a look what’s to come in the season overall. This season is going to see a lot of tears, and as usual, a lot of drama. We’ll see the women come with their own agendas, and it doesn’t seem to be about falling in love. Are they reacting because they’re being caught out or because they are genuinely there for love? Maybe Ziwe can help figure that out tonight.

Check out the promo and synopsis for The Bachelor Season 26, Episode 2:

"In the group date, Hilary Duff enlists the help of the ladies to throw a dream Beverly Hills birthday party; Amanda Jordan performs for Clayton and his one-on-one date; Ziwe stops by the second group date to help Clayton spot potential red flags."
