Despite there being several walking/talking red flags on Charity Lawson’s season of The Bachelorette, ABC’s casting department actually came through for once and found her some pretty decent prospective husbands. Including Aaron Bryant, who immediately made an impression on Charity and is poised to go pretty far in the competition. Actually...we know exactly how far, so keep reading for spoilers—right after some important intel on Aaron!

Aaron Is a Software Salesman

Twenty-nine-year-old Aaron sells software for a living in California, but his Insta profile also implies he’s a realtor...? So maybe he does both! Either way, he—to quote the folks at ABC— “lights up every room he walks into, and he wears his heart on his sleeve.”

This Isn’t His First ABC Rodeo

Turns out, he was on The Final Straw with his family!

When It Comes to Dating...

Aaron knows what he wants. He’s a “self-proclaimed hopeless romantic” and “says he’s truly ready to find his perfect match and hopes his future wife is outgoing, emotionally intelligent and thoughtful.” Which Charity is, so he’s in luck!

He Has a Relationship History

Unlike some of the less experienced men on this season, Aaron has been in a long-term relationship and it did not work out. But as ABC put it, “after his last long-term relationship didn’t work out, Aaron B. is excited for the chance to fall in love again and can’t wait for his Bachelorette journey to begin.”

Aaron’s Parents Set a Great Example for Him in ’Ships

I mean, it’s right there in the caption:

He also told Charity that his parents taught him to prioritize unconditional love and communication.

Some Fun Facts About Aaron?

Where to even start:

  • He loves Tyler the Creator.
  • He loves James Patterson novels.
  • He loves Cajun food.
  • He taught himself how to play violin AND piano (as you know, since he straight-up performed for Charity night one).
  • He’s into hiking and photography.
  • He eats peanut butter straight from the jar
  • He’s scared of wasps (so you KNOW ABC will force him on some kinda beekeeper date).

’Kay, enough fun for now, time for Aaron Bachelorette SPOILERS.

Aaron Got the First One-On-One Date

Aaron secured the first one-on-one date of the season, joining Charity for a trip to the Hollywood sign (classic) before heading back to Los Angeles and checking out a concert.

Though he didn't get a second one ahead of Hometowns, there's still the fact that...

He Made It to the Final Four!

Aaron introduced Charity to his family in Texas on April 15 but sadly he didn't made it to her final three, which we now know consists of Dotun Olubeko, Xavier Bonner, and Joey Graziadei.

In fact, according to Reality Steve, apparently once Charity has her overnight Fantasy Suite dates (Xavier is first, then Joey, and then Dotun), Aaron shows up between the second and third and "asks for more time with Charity." However, even though they wind up talking, Charity "does not take him back."

So does Aaron win? Answer: hard no. And while we won't give you the ~official~ spoiler, you can see how it all goes down in Reality Steve's latest post here:

And obvi in our spoiler story as well:

Aaron Went on Bachelor in Paradise

According to Reality Steve, Aaron is very much a contestant on this season of Bachelor in Paradise, meaning he did not propose to Charity! Can’t wait to see him at the beach.
