The Truth About The Bachelorette's Garrett Schwartz

Katie Thurston has had one heck of a ride. She quickly gained attention on Matt James' "Bachelor" season when she greeted him wielding a rather (ahem) personal item. Jokes aside, Katie quickly became a fan-favorite for her outspoken defense of others and the frank, candid way she was able to communicate with her peers. While she may have never stood a chance on "The Bachelor," Katie is taking the reins as the next Bachelorette, followed by Michelle Young. So we get not one, but two seasons of "The Bachelorette" with these amazing women.

There are already some notable things coming out about Katie's season. For starters, one of the contestants is going to be a familiar face. We're getting Blake Moynes back, who wooed both Clare Crawley and Tayshia Adams to no avail. Third time's a charm, Blake! As if that's not exciting enough, we also found out that Katie's season ended early. As Us Weekly reported, Katie wrapped up her season a week ahead of schedule.

"Katie was in control and made sure the men she wanted were there and the men she wasn't interested in, she sent packing," a source told the outlet. How are we not surprised? And while there's so much to talk about when it comes to Katie, we're dying to know more about the men on her season, especially Garrett Schwartz. Here's his story.
