Katie already seems smitten with Thomas, as she admitted on Episode 2 that she couldn't stop thinking about him and could envision their future together.

And Thomas, in turn, said his chemistry with Katie was "spectacular" and he could feel "a tunnel-vision connection" between the two of them that was flat out magical.

Not only did the couple have a steamy makeout session in which Katie hopped onto the bachelor's lap, but Thomas also won himself a group-date rose.

However, ABC released a promo showing Thomas being accused of going on The Bachelorette to hopefully become the next The Bachelor star for Season 22. Thomas will apparently be accused of dating Katie for the wrong reasons and not having pure intentions.

"Have you ever thought, 'Maybe, I could end up being the Bachelor?'" Hunter Montgomery asks in the promo.

And Thomas replies, "That was a thought that was on my mind."

In another clip, Thomas admits, "I'm willing to do anything it takes, including throwing out the 'love' word."

So will Thomas break Katie's heart or will he truly fall for The Bachelorette star and alter his way of thinking? Until viewers find out what happens next between the pair, let's learn some things about Thomas right now.

Below is a list of five facts Reality TV World has compiled about Thomas Jacobs.
