Hill’s death, which occurred after the show had wrapped filming, was acknowledged by ABC at the start of the premiere, with Chris Harrison noting his love of traveling and adventure and dedicating the season to him. The 32-year-old contestant received a rose from Bachelorette Andi Dorfman during the first rose ceremony and reportedly advanced further on in the show.
