"The Bachelor" star also shares his thoughts on Linda the llama, reconnecting with his father, and kissing seven (!) women on night one.

"My experience on 'The Bachelor' taught me that it's really, really plausible to fall in love on one date if you're open and if the trust is there," Grant, 31, told Business Insid

"People are going to see my character onscreen and how I handle situations, and hopefully that’s what makes them proud regardless of what color I am," says the star of season 29, which premiered Monday.
