When are hometown dates on Season 19 of 'The Bachelorette'?

After the Aug. 8 episode, only 11 suitors remain on the dating show; five remain for Rachel, and six remain for Gabby. With that said, it's safe to say that the Aug. 15 episode will see Rachel saying goodbye to one man and Gabby bidding farewell to two.

Therefore, fans can expect to see hometown dates on the Aug. 22 episode of The Bachelorette.

Now, when it comes to the treasured hometown dates, 26-year-old flight instructor Rachel follows the traditional route by participating in four of them. Gabby, on the other hand, only has three hometown dates.
