\"I'm looking for a love that's kind and understanding. Some qualities I'm looking for in a potential partner is somebody who's adventurous, somebody who's affectionate and somebody who's loving,\" he said at the time. \"I can't wait for this incredible journey to get kicked off. It's going to be so fun, and I hope you guys tune in. Peace!\"

\"The Bachelor\" season 29 premieres Jan. 27 on ABC and streams the next day on Hulu.

Disney is the parent company of Hulu, ABC News and \"Good Morning America.\"
