Before ABC's The Bachelor series, Nick competed on two editions of The Bachelorette and got dumped in the runner-up spot both times by Andi Dorfman and Kaitlyn Bristowe. He also failed to find love on Season 3 of Bachelor in Paradise last summer.
Nick is no stranger to cameras and being in the spotlight, but it's been hard work for him to perfect his dance moves. Will he survive another week on Dancing with the Stars?
