Twenty-seven year-old Matt Grant, a global financier from London and the first international Bachelor ever, has been selected to star in the 12th edition of ABC’s popular romance reality series when it returns on Monday, March 17. The 6’5″, blue-eyed business manager was on “Dance War: Bruno vs. Carrie Ann” on Monday night.

More on Matt Grant:

This “totally charming and witty English gentleman” works with millionaire businessmen, but he wants to find the love of his life and to start a family as soon as possible (red flag!). Matt is the youngest of five brothers, the rest of which are all married. Matt’s life revolves around his family and friends.

Matt, born to an “older” father, wants to have his own kids at a young age so he could be an active participant in his kids’ lives. He’s looking for a woman who is adventurous, playful and fun, who loves to travel, and enjoys the outdoors. His future wife will be funny, self-deprecating and outgoing. I bet she will be beautiful, too!

Matt is attracted to American women, whom he finds extroverted and gregarious and he adores their accents. He’s actually had an American girlfriend in the past. He frankly can’t wait to fall in love again, having been bitten twice before once it was even love at first sight.

A native of Bishop’s Stortford, a short distance from London, this Renaissance man received his B.A. in modern history and politics from Anglia Ruskin University in Cambridge. Matt was captain of the university’s rowing team and plays rugby, cricket, tennis and skis. A workout buff, his other passion is current events.

However Matt yearns to share stories and a laugh at the end of the day with someone special. I guess we will get to see if any of the 25 lucky Bachelorettes fit the bill!
