Brandon Andreen from The Bachelorette -- Well, it's understandable to ask, "Who is Brandon Andreen?"

The handsome bachelor from Minnesota competed on the ninth season of The Bachelorette starring Desiree Hartsock.
Although he caught Desiree's attention at first, Brandon got extremely emotional early on and confessed he was falling in love with the Bachelorette before even going on a one-on-one date with her.
He also opened up too soon about his abandonment issues and mother's string of unsuccessful boyfriend attempts. Brandon, who cried a lot in his confessionals, got sent home in Week 3 of the show.
Brandon will be appearing on Bachelor in Paradise's third season, so it will be interesting to see if he falls hard and fast again for a woman.
