Bachelor In Paradise 2019: Meet Connor, The New Hottie In Paradise
“I’m Connor, I’m 26 and I’m from Becca’s season of The Bachelorette USA. I am probably best known for throwing one of the cast member’s picture frames into the pool.”
And just like that, we welcomed Connor J. Obrochta into Paradise and our hearts.
Explaining that one of the guys he was living with in the Bachelorette mansion “kept putting [the picture] in front of the cameras, showing it off, kissing it” in front of everyone, Connor quickly decided he’d had enough.
“Long story short, I just said ‘I’m getting rid of this thing,” he shared.
Nowadays, however, he looks back on the incident as “the only regret” from his time on the show.

“I was embarrassed,” he explained, “so coming into Paradise, I would just like people to know my true side. How kind I am, how genuine I am, and just get to know me for me.”
So who exactly IS Connor?
A fitness coach from St. Petersburg in Florida, Connor’s original Bachelorette profile described him as “a risk-taker, whose health and fitness is his #1 priority”. One look at his Instagram can also confirm this for anyone in doubt.
