GA native joins groundbreaking new season of The Bachelorette. What we know about him

Get ready, Bachelor Nation. A new season of your favorite show is coming.

The upcoming season of “The Bachelorette” is going to be record breaking and of course, filled with drama.

After Clayton Echard’s season of “The Bachelor,” which is dubbed the most dramatic season in Bachelor history, Clayton’s two final girls have been chosen for the next season of “The Bachelorette.”

But wait, two women?

That’s right, two women will be on “The Bachelorette,” at the same time.

After Gabby and Rachel were the two to get the absolute shortest end of the stick during Clayton’s season, they now both have a chance at finding love again, as they go on the journey together.

So, could a Georgia boy be the one to accept Gabby’s or Rachel’s rose?

His name is Jordan Vandergriff, he’s 27, he’s from Alpharetta, Georgia, and he is one of the 36 men competing for Gabby’s and Rachel’s love.

Jordan isn’t your typical country boy, but he is sure to get your heart racing.

He is currently a professional drag racer for his dad’s company called Bob Vandergriff Racing. According to the National Hot Rod Association, Jordan competed in his first season during 2019. In the same year, he raced to runner-up in a competition in Dallas and advanced to three semifinal rounds after that.

It’s clear that Jordan has a competitive side, but will he be able to race away with Gabby’s or Rachel’s heart?

Tune into the new season of “The Bachelorette” July 11 on ABC.

The upcoming season of The Bachelorette features a contestant from Georgia. Meet Jordan Vandergriff. He’s 27 and from Alpharetta, GA.
