For those who need a refresher, we first met Grant as he fought for the heart of former Bachelorette an oh-so teary Spencer Conley).

Although he did not find love with the leading lady, according to his biography for the beloved competition series, “It’s easy to see what makes Grant such a catch,” delving into the details:

“His smile lights up every room he walks into and is followed by his positive attitude. Grant is a mama’s boy who loves poetry and reading, and says he’s here to find the love of his life. The former pro basketball player is ionate about his new career as a day trader and hopes to be able to provide for his future family. When Grant isn’t hustling at his job, he loves watching the Lakers, going bowling, and singing his heart out at karaoke.”

Based on his biography for The Bachelorette season 21, Grant is seemingly the perfect partner, now he just needs to find the woman to be his other half. Luckily, as the new Bachelor, he will have dozens of girlfriends to choose from!

Jenn served her stint as the first Asian-American lead, with fans of the franchise praising The Bachelor and The Bachelorette for expanding in the diversity department as of late.

Nevertheless, today (December 16), we got our first glimpse into Grant’s new gig, introducing himself as the new Bachelor and sharing some fun facts about himself in a reel shared to The Bachelor‘s official Instagram . Here’s what he had to say:

“I’m Grant, and I’m your new Bachelor,” the 31-year-old prefaced, prior to sharing some fun facts about himself, as well as what he is looking to get out of this journey:

“I’m a New Jersey boy, mama’s boy. I’m a day trader. I’m an athlete. I’m really a goofball.”

“I’m looking for love. I want a wife. I’m searching for that happiness. To get what you want out of life, you have to take a chance. Love is a choice. Love is hard, but ultimately, the hardest things have the biggest reward.”

“Let the journey begin!” he concluded, expressing his excitement to be the new Bachelor.

Needless to say, fans of the franchise are equally as excited, taking to the comment section of the reel to express their enthusiasm as well:

“I will be glued to my Tv!!! Let’s go!! 😍”

“We love a goofball that looks this good 😍”

“Calendar marked! This man is fine fine 😍”

“I love a goofball!!! Hope you found your person.”

In said reel, it was also revealed when The Bachelor season 29 will premiere, gracing our television screens on January 27. Mark your calendars and start planning your premiere parties, because in the wise words of host Jesse Palmer, this might just be “the most dramatic season” to date
