How did Flajnik start his reality show career?
Flajnik initially entered the public eye during Ashley Hebert's season of 'The Bachelorette,' where he did not succeed in winning her over.
He later returned for his own season of 'The Bachelor,' and by the season's conclusion, he had proposed to Courtney Robinson.
However, the two initially concluded their brief relationship but later reconciled.
Flajnik stated at the time, "We're engaged. We're in a good place. Now that the main part of the show, and all the negativity are gone, it can only get better... The root of the problem was us not being able to be with each other and talk about these things."
Flajnik revealed on the 'She's All Bach' podcast that he had dated actress Jennifer Love Hewitt before making his appearance on 'The Bachelor.'
"I was like, 'Well, there's not much I can do here now.' We were dating for a couple of weeks — I wasn't going to not do 'The Bachelor,'" he explained.

Flajnik was also involved with Kris Jenner during the time of the show and maintained contact afterward.
"They kept inviting me to things, and I'm a friendly guy. We just — they'd come up here. Kanye [West] played a show in Oakland. My buddy and I were just, like, on the stage with Kanye. The normal things that one would do," he shared.
He added, "They were very gracious and very nice to me, so I have nothing but kind things to say about that family."
