Marikh is a 27-year-old restaurant owner from Salt Lake City, UT.

The brunette beauty will be vying for Bachelor Arie's heart when the show premieres Monday, January 1 at 8PM ET/PT on ABC.

Arie will be looking for love after failing to win Emily Maynard's heart on The Bachelorette's eighth season back in 2012. Emily had picked Jef Holm instead.

Marikh has showstopping good looks, so it will be a surprise if Arie's jaw doesn't drop when they first meet. But we'll see if Marikh is just as beautiful on the inside and wins Arie over with her personality. To learn about Arie's other 28 bachelorettes in the meantime, click here.
