TULUM, MEXICO: 'The Bachelor' Season 28 Episode 11, the finale, will air next week on Monday, March 25 at 8 pm ET, exclusively on ABC. The upcoming episode marks the finale of one of the most loved and followed seasons in the franchise's history. 

The trailer of the finale hinted at an unprecedented and shocking ending, described as a first in 'Bachelor' history. The voice-over suggested that the big surprise revolves around Daisy realizing she is not "the one" chosen by Joey.

In a unique turn of events, Daisy approaches Kelsey before the final rose ceremony to express her support, also revealing that she might not be the perfect match for Joey, a departure from the norm of the franchise as the final two contestants typically do not see or speak with each other during the finale. 

Adding to this, Joey can also be seen saying, "That was crazy. I didn’t expect that at all. I can’t think that’s happened before. I don’t even know what to say, I know I gave as much as I could. I’m sick of feeling like this. It feels wrong, but I don’t know what to do."
