The Bachelorette's next star will reportedly be one of Ben Higgins' Final 4 women from The Bachelor.

According to a source, producers will be selecting either Lauren Bushnell, Joelle "JoJo" Fletcher, Caila Quinn or Amanda Stanton as its Season 12 star, Us Weekly reported.

Bushnell, a 25-year-old flight attendant from Marina Del Rey, CA, and Fletcher, a 24-year-old real estate developer from Dallas, TX, are still in the running for Higgins' heart on Season 20 of The Bachelor. The show is heading into its Women Tell All special followed by the much-anticipated finale in which Higgins will propose to one lucky woman.

Quinn, a 24-year-old software sales representative from Hudson, OH, was eliminated after her Fantasy Suite date with Higgins in Jamaica during the most recent episode. She was blindsided and devastated because she felt so ready to get engaged and spend the rest of her life with Higgins.

Higgins sent Stanton, a 25-year-old esthetician from Rancho Santa Margarita, CA, home the week prior after he enjoyed a date in her hometown. Higgins' decision was a bit shocking because Stanton, a single mom, introduced him not only to her family, but to her two young daughters.

Higgins' Final 4 women being the contenders for the upcoming Bachelorette may not come as a surprise to fans, however, it would mean other fan-favorites -- including Becca Tilley and Jubilee Sharpe -- are not being considered for the role.

If producers continue to follow a pattern, Quinn will become the next Bachelorette because ABC had selected Andi Dorfman and Kaitlyn Bristowe for the franchise's Season 10 and 11 stars. Both Dorfman and Bristowe finished as the second runner-up on their seasons of The Bachelor starring Juan Pablo Galavis and Chris Soules respectively.

Soules and Higgins, the two most recent Bachelors, also finished in third place on their respective seasons of The Bachelorette. Soules initially competed for Dorfman, while Higgins failed to win Bristowe's heart.
