The women who will compete for the heart of Mel Owens on the second season of "The Golden Bachelor" have been revealed.
On Thursday, ABC announced the 23 women hoping to receive a rose from Owens, a 66-year-old retired NFL player and attorney from Orange County, California.
Ranging in age from 58 to 77, the contestants include a longevity nurse, librarian, retired biomedical engineer, retired elementary school teacher, flight attendant, full-time mom and more.
"Twenty-three incredible women are stepping into the spotlight, ready to capture hearts across the nation as they pursue a chance at love with 'Golden Bachelor' Mel Owens," the network said in a press release. "These vibrant women, each radiating elegance, strength and a zest for life, are proof that love stories don't end with age, they only get better."
Season 2 of "The Golden Bachelor" premieres Wednesday, Sept. 24, on ABC and streams the next day on Hulu.
A Detroit native from a close-knit Midwestern family, Owens moved to Orange County after his playing career to practice law, focusing on sports-related injuries, according to the release.
He is a father of two sons from his first marriage.
After focusing on raising his sons, Owens is now ready to look for love again. He is searching for the "simple joys of companionship - sharing life's everyday moments, making plans for the future, and growing stronger together as a couple," according to the release.
