Grant Ellis is the newest lead featured in the ABC reality show, The Bachelor, and viewers are amped up to see what he’ll bring to the small screen. The dating program has been beloved for years due to its fantasy romance scenes, intriguing date adventures and has even developed a fandom of people shipping potential couples from home, known as “Bachelor Nation.” This season Ellis, a day trader and former professional basketball player, will be the center of the attention while dating over two dozen women in the hopes of finding the one.
