Everything you ever wanted to know about Nick Viall.

Never fear, I have been watching all of his live Instagram posts. All for you. All very important. All mostly of him cooking very basic meals.

Name: Nick Viall

Age: 36 (Birthday Sept 29, 1980)

Height: 6′ 2”

Hometown: Milwaukee, Wisconsin (was living in Chicago, IL)

Occupation: Was in software sales at Salesforce

Where you know him from: This will be his 4th season with The Bachelor franchise. The true question is where don’t you know him from? He’s been all over the land of The Bachelorette and Bachelor in Paradise. He first appeared on Andi Dorfman’s season of The Bachelorette and lost to Josh (Josh met Amanda on Bachelor in Paradise, moved in with her and her two girls and now is rumored to be split). Nick is best known for his broken-hearted line on After The Final Rose, “If you didn’t love me, why did you make love to me?” unveiling everything about the Fantasy Suite. He was The Bachelor villain when he came back for round 2 on Kaitlyn Bristowe’s season (She’s still happily in love and soaking up those speaking engagements with live-in bf Shawn Booth). Finally, we were exposed to a softer side of Nick when he stood up for Amanda against bully Josh, and befriended the twins, coming close to finding love with Jen (don’t worry no one remembers who she was). From can’t ever have him around to now to his rise to fame as The Bachelor that fans can’t get enough of.
