Bachelor star Nick Viall was spotted out and about in Chicago after filming the show. He returned from shooting Season 7 just last week and spent Thanksgiving weekend with his family in Waukesha, Wisconsin. The 35-year-old uploaded a photo of him posing with his mother and wishing her a happy birthday.

According to the Chicago Tribune, an onlooker noticed Nick Viall focused on his phone for a great deal of time at Siena Tavern in Chicago. He wasn’t socializing much with anyone other than a familiar face from Bachelor in Paradise and two other guys. Nick hung out with Evan Bass from BiP, who later took his kids and fiancee, Carly Waddell, to a Bears game against the Tennessee Titans.

Did Nick give any hints as to who he was communicating with on his phone, or who he picked on his season of The Bachelor?

Page Six reports on what the “spy” had to say about Nick Viall being spotted at the tavern.

“Two female fans came up to the table, but Viall kept his distance and was on his phone the majority of the time [texting],” said the witness. “It seemed to be a boys’ night out.”

Reality Steve did spoil how the ending shapes up for Nick, which can be read in another Inquisitr article here.

Before becoming the lead of the next season, Nick lost at love three times — twice on The Bachelorette and again on BiP. Will he find love this time around? Fans have several months before they see for themselves what unfolds in the final Bachelor episode, which was filmed on November 17 in Finland.

Viall currently lives in Los Angeles, and it’s anticipated that’s where he plans to stay. Reality Steve blogged that Nick is involved in modeling and has taken acting classes. He supposedly has his sights set on appearing as a contestant on another ABC reality show, Dancing with the Stars. There’s already questions revolving around whether Viall agreed to do the show for the right reasons or if he did it to promote his career, a common obstacle brought up almost every year on the show.

Steve mentioned in his blog that sources close to production claim Nick Viall wants to be the greatest Bachelor star that the franchise has had. He wants to make great television in his journey to find love. It’s also been revealed that Nick is allegedly obsessed with winning mass approval and is highly aware of what’s said about him on social media.

Nick may have found his true love on his season of The Bachelor and all of what’s been reported will be contradicted. The media and some of the fans can be quick to predict how things will turn out for couples in the franchise. Bachelorette JoJo Fletcher and Jordan Rodgers have been heavily scrutinized for their relationship, with many alleging they’re only together the money fame brings. Us Weekly reports that the engaged couple posted photos on Instagram of them buying their first Christmas tree together.

Rodgers responded to break up rumors.

“Anyone can look at our social media and see how happy we are. We don’t let it bother us,” Rodgers told Us.

Speaking of break ups, BiP couple Lace Morris and Grant Kemp confirmed their split on Monday. The reason given was an inability to give each other what they needed. While the two complimented one another in their statements, they mutually agreed to end their engagement.

The Bachelor 2017 with Nick Viall premieres on Monday, January 2, on ABC at 8 p.m., ET/PT.
