Meet Chris Soules, the New Bachelor

You know his name; Chris Soules is the new Bachelor. His episodes began premiering in early January and people are just in love with him. He is a farmer from Iowa that people fell head over heels in love with when he competed for the love and affection of Andi Dorfman when she was the Bachelorette. She did not pick him, sending him back home after visiting his family in Iowa. The farm life simply was not for this Atlanta-based lawyer, and she went with a former baseball player who lived in her neighborhood instead (and they just broke up). Now Chris is back and better than ever, with his choice of 30 women to date and some of them seem like they’d be a great match. Others seem like they would not be a great match. Now that you’re officially up-to-date on all that’s going on in the world of this handsome farmer, here are a few things you didn’t know about him.

Finding a Wife is His Biggest Goal

He’s a simple man with simple wants and desires, and that includes a wife. Soules did not make it any big secret that he’s in the market for a wife and that makes us think that this is a man who might already be engaged and on his way to the alter.

He Wants Kids

Of course he does. He’s a farmer and he loves his family, and they’re most important to him. Once he finds the love of his life and moves on so that he can finally get married, we expect that he will be having kids any moment following that one. He’s a traditional, old-school kind of guy.

We Already (Allegedly) Know Who Wins

Reality Steve always seems to be right, and we can trust his sources. However, we will not spoil this for you if you spend a lot of time on the internet trying NOT to find out who gets the final rose. Though we can tell you that if it’s true, the match seems to be one made in heaven, and we call this one a winner.
