With the first rose ceremony out of the way, the pressure is on for the participants of 'The Bachelorette' as they all try to wiggle their way into Michelle's heart. The men who've made the cut now live to see an other day and they all believe they have what it takes to make it to the end. However, that's a choice for Michelle to make.

Seeing that Ryan Fox thought he had a whole play book ready and yet got sent home while Joe Coleman's DM drama had him nervous, there is no telling what can happen next. At best, the men can hype themselves up and give it all they've got. And looks like no one can beat Chris G. when it comes to a good pep talk!

Who is Chris Gallant?

Chis Gallant, or Chris G., as he is known on Season 18 of 'The Bachelorette' is a 28-year-old Motivational Speaker from Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada. He made quite an impression on Michelle during their first meeting, belting out a heartfelt monologue of sorts. As per his official website, he does a number of events and even dished out some advice on how to conquer crowds -- “Your audience, they want to like you, they want you to succeed. They want to hear something memorable, interesting, thought-provoking, engaging… so when you’re nervous, when you’re unsure about stepping on to that stage, remember they’re rooting for you too.” he wrote.

We wonder if the other contestants are taking notes! He currently works for Skills Canada - Nova Scotia as the Lead Content Producer prior to which he was the Promotions Coordinator, a role which allowed him to interact with youth from grade 7-12. Looks like Michelle and he have something interesting to bond over!



 

What does his ABC bio say?

As per his official bio -- "For Chris G., commitment is the name of the game. As kindhearted as you would expect any Canadian man to be, Chris G. says he is looking for a genuine connection and for someone who is all in on him the way he is on her.

His ideal woman is active, vulnerable and a good person on the inside. Chris is looking for his best friend, someone who he can bring home to his family, and someone that he just absolutely adores. When he says he's looking for love, he is looking for the right soul and someone his energy bonds to. Will there be that instant spark when Chris meets Michelle?" Chris G. is also a fan of escape rooms and has two cats -- named Cat and one named Small Cat. He's also big on spoken word poetry -- you can check out his performances here.
