Kim Kardashian’s name has been in headlines more than usual lately due to her relationship status with estranged husband Kanye West. Despite filing for divorce from the rapper earlier this year, the duo has been spotted together recently, sparking rumors of a reconciliation.
But during her turn as SNL hostess, Kim Kardashian put herself out there for love. In a hilarious spoof of ABC’s The Bachelorette, the veteran reality star handed out tokens to her possible suitors.
Among the fictional suitors was a former real-life contestant from The Bachelorette – Tyler Cameron. He was the runner-up on Season 15 featuring Hannah Brown as the lead.

But that’s not all.
Amy Schumer appeared as a producer of the fictional dating competition.
