Notary and blogger Kristyna Hnyak has officially confirmed her participation in the 15th season of the popular romantic reality show The Bachelor. In the new television season, several bright participants will compete for the heart of the main character, famous Ukrainian basketball player Vyacheslav Kravtsov, including the former wife of well-known TV presenter Volodymyr Ostapchuk. Hnyak's appearance in the official promo video of the STB TV channel put an end to numerous rumors that had been actively circulating in the media space since the summer.
In the published video materials, Kristyna openly touched upon the topic of her previous marriage, describing that period of life as "very scary." Recall that Hnyak and Ostapchuk's marriage was concluded in 2020 and ended in 2022, after which prolonged property disputes arose between the ex-spouses over a country house near Kyiv. Despite her difficult past, the first impression of meeting the new Bachelor Vyacheslav Kravtsov turned out to be positive: the participant noted his charming smile and ability to listen attentively.
Season Premiere and Digital Release
The long-awaited premiere of the 15th season of The Bachelor romantic show is scheduled for October 16, 2026, and will traditionally take place on the STB TV channel. In addition, the creators of the project took care of the modern audience by announcing that new episodes of the show will be available for viewing on the Netflix streaming platform in Ukraine, which will significantly expand the audience reach and raise the project's popularity to a new level.
Contradictory Data
It is worth noting that information about Kristyna Hnyak's participation in the new season leaked to the network long before the official premiere. As early as summer, unofficial lists of participants appeared in the public space, which were actively distributed in Telegram channels and secular chronicle websites. At that time, the management of the STB TV channel and the project's press service refrained from direct confirmations, calling the publications rumors and speculations. Kristyna herself also maintained intrigue, fueling public interest in her persona. Only with the release of the official promo video were all contradictions resolved, and the rumors received one hundred percent confirmation.
