Jordan Rodgers was a man whom JoJo Fletcher came to respect and admire on The Bachelorette, regardless of what was being said about him in the real world.

Fletcher was made aware of Aaron's estrangement from the family with little-to-no explanation from Jordan, and what caused the fallout is still a mystery to everyone watching the show at home.
"Pulling up to my date and seeing Jordan standing waiting for me, I lit up. I was so excited and ready to see where he grew up and what has made him the man that he is today," Fletcher wrote in her People blog.
After getting a tour of Jordan's high school and seeing old adorable pictures of him on the walls, Fletcher got ready to meet the people he loves most.
"Watching back, I have no memory of that moment Jordan and I took on the steps before walking in. I was so nervous! But as soon as I stepped into their house, I was welcomed with an overwhelming about of love that made me feel right at home," Fletcher explained.
"It was just last week that Jordan had opened up to me about his brother [Aaron], and I knew that this was a sensitive subject."
Fletcher couldn't help but gush about Jordan in her blog, especially because she was almost ready to say, "I love you," to him after the hometown date.
"I know how many misconceptions there are out there about Jordan, but that night I couldn't wait to tell his parents just how much I admire their son for the man that I know he really is," Fletcher said.
"Watching back the bond between Jordan and his parents, and hearing him tell them how confident he was in our relationship was really heartwarming. And to be honest, made me feel silly when I watched myself still question him at the end of our amazing evening."
Besides Jordan, Robby Hayes, Luke Pell and Chase McNary are also still in the running for JoJo's heart.
