Jenn’s ‘Bachelorette’ contestant Marcus has a military background and was a student at Harvard
The Army Ranger veteran raised eyebrows as the first one out of the limo when Jenn’s Bachelorette season premiered.
“I wanted to tell you about my three big dreams. Growing up, I wanted to serve my country and go to outer space and to find my person,” Marcus told Jenn during their first meeting. “I’ve been lucky enough that some of those dreams have already become true.”Marcus shared a deeply personal story with viewers during his intro package about his time in the Army Rangers.
“When you can genuinely appreciate that you woke up in the morning and that you have breath in your lungs, that’s a beautiful thing,” he shared. “I would never have been able to appreciate those types of things without that type of experience.”During his intro package, Marcus revealed to viewers that he “enlisted and left for training two weeks” after graduating high school.
Marcus admitted to having a lapse in memory after a grenade went off near him and his team while in combat. He woke up “at a hospital in Washington D.C.”His time on The Bachelorette marks five years since Marcus dated seriously. “I think I’m ready to open myself back up to being in a relationship and the possibility of love,” he told viewers. “I’m here to see if there’s a connection between Jenn and I. I hope love is the next mission for me.”Following his time in the Army Rangers, Marcus went to Harvard University. While at the school, he worked with the Harvard Undergraduates Veterans Organization.
