The Bachelorette viewers didn't see much of Derek in the show's premiere, but according to ABC, he'll have a one-on-one date with JoJo in the second episode that airs Monday, May 30.
The tall, dark and handsome bachelor might be one to watch out for this season, especially with those bright, baby-blue eyes.
Below is a list of nine facts Reality TV World compiled about the suitor:
- Derek graduated from Waverly-Shell Rock High School and attended Warburg College.
- He was a three-time NCAA All-American in track and field.
- Hopefully JoJo is a dog-person, because Derek apparently has a serious fear of fluffy kittens.
- The suitor was the spitting image of Harry Potter as a kid, glasses and all.
- While he currently lives in New York, he previously touched base in Florida.
- Derek enjoys singing and playing the guitar, especially as he walks along the beach.
- The bachelor is 6'3" and has no tattoos.
- Derek's all-time favorite movies are Hook, Field of Dreams and Star Wars.

- The person he admires most in history? Ben Franklin because he "viewed the world with childlike wonder to feed his creative/inventive side" and balanced that with "a work ethic that produced massive shifts for the greater good."
