The rumors that Ryan Lochte may be ABC’s next Bachelor aren’t going away, but it’s certainly going to cost the network. According to Radaronline, the gold medal-winning Olympian “wants at least $750,000” to appear on the show. “Ryan is acutely aware that he has attached himself to the right projects and endorsements that won’t do damage to his all-American image,” said a source. “As much as he’d like to do it, Ryan does have some reservations about the Bachelor because he wouldn’t have any control on how he is portrayed on the show.”
