Jonathon Johnson from 'The Bachelorette': Instagram, work, what you need to know

“The Bachelorette” season 21 contestant Jonathon Johnson has come a long way since his memorable entrance on night one.

Jonathan, 27, caught Jenn Tran’s attention when he arrived on a gurney, wearing a hospital gown and his face covered in bandages. His self-proclaimed diagnosis? Heartbreak.

Since then, Jonathan and Jenn’s relationship has only grown stronger, leading to a helicopter date in New Zealand in week five. Over dinner, they connect on an emotional level as Jonathon opens up about his experience with a toxic ex.

“We have had very similar experiences and now I feel like we can really build a great future together,” Jenn says.

Jonathon and Jenn’s date ends with a romantic kissing session in the rain.

“Today was like a romantic movie, and I couldn’t be happier that she’s the one to do it with,” Jonathon says. “The right person will make sure this romantic comedy stays alive for as long as possible.”

In a questionnaire for BachelorNation.com, Jonathan shared that his ideal date is a mix of fun and health.

To break the ice, he would start the date with an activity like an arcade, mini-golf or go-karting. The “second step” would involve dinner, to have an “honest and vulnerable conversation where we both got to know each other better.” The outing would end with a walk or drinks on the beach.

He is a proud “average king” and a “hopeless romantic”

At 5’10”, Jonathon identifies as an “average king.”

“We don’t have the personality of little kings. We don’t have the sex appeal of big kings; that’s not in our vocabulary,” he said in an Instagram video. “What we have is very moderate personalities, very average height and above-average potential.”

Although Jonathan has been burned before, he’s eager to see if he can give Jenn the “fierce love” she’s looking for.

“It destroyed me and it took this kid who grew up as a hopeless romantic, wanting this rom-com love, and it completely destroyed me to my core,” he told Jenn of his past relationship.

According to his ABC BiographyJonathon doesn’t think chivalry is dead.

“I treat every girl the same way I would want my mother and sister to be treated,” he said.
