that's real.

We appreciate it. Grant. So I'll make you some background here.
Speaker 1 (00:42):
He's a played basketball in college and he played professionally
for a little while.
Speaker 2 (00:45):
And you like music? How you make music?
Speaker 1 (00:46):
Right? Oh?
Speaker 2 (00:48):
My free time? I'm not really something I do serious
is an interest of mine, you know. So I really
enjoy anything creative, poetry, music. I think that stimulates creation.
Speaker 1 (00:55):
I like that's cool. Born in December not a Capricorn
but almost okay, almost Sagittarius.
Speaker 2 (01:03):
And what does that mean?
Speaker 1 (01:04):
So what does that mean?
Speaker 2 (01:05):
What is what? What is Sagitarius?
Speaker 1 (01:06):
Like time?
Speaker 2 (01:07):
So interesting as Sagittarius can kind of morph to their partner,
like they can kind of adapt to whatever their partners like.
Is that kind of like you? Yes? I actually that
actually is very true. I am adventurous, but I like
in a relationship, I tend to adapt to my partner's
interests a lot, you know, So I'm not I'm not
just saying that's like really true. So so what happened?
Speaker 1 (01:29):
You were in a seven year relationship, right, yes, sir?
And you adapted as well as you could. I adapted
as well as I could. But you know, over time
or too much, and people grow apart. We actually were
together in college and for most of my professional career
we were long distance and our lives just took different paths,
and that's something that happened. But I will say I
(01:50):
learned a lot from that relationship. Mostly did you learn?
Speaker 2 (01:53):
What did you like?
Speaker 1 (01:54):
What are the things? Because I do you know tany
and sicany both I don't know. They have different outlooks
on once you break up with somebody and leave a relationship,
you know, But I do believe that you can gain
and glean so much from that person that they are
should be cherished in a way.
Speaker 2 (02:08):
Yeah, one hundred percent. Like I I've moved on, but
I will always cherish that relationship. It taught me number
one too. When you are mad with your partner, you
can't Number one, you can't say things you don't mean.
And number two, you can't go to sleep anger. You
have to fix. I mean you can, but it's snowball.
So that's something that really I learned from that. Also,
I learned that a lot of times because you know me,
(02:30):
I like to work so much. You have to incorporate
time to put your partner's interest first. Like something that
in my past relationship, not to not to bring it up,
but she liked to go to Target and look at
rugs and I didn't really have an interest to do that,
but it's my favorite thing. To what you guys love
Target marshals, I'm in there for ten minutes and I'm
(02:52):
ready to leave, but just marking stress. Yeah he hates
it too, But over time, you have to, you know,
you have to. So there's gonna be some things that
your partner likes to do that you don't have to do.
But that's where sacrifice comes in. So that's something I learned.
And just thinking about the little things, you know that,
that's something I learned. So I learned a lot of
things and I've grown from that. So now I was
an old man with bad knees.
Speaker 1 (03:13):
I'm ready to my grant Elis the Bachelor. So what
are you doing for work?
Speaker 2 (03:17):
Every day? So I trade the markets. I work for
the proprietary firm called top Step and they fund me
with capital and I trade and I take a split.
Are you up early?
Speaker 1 (03:27):
Up early?
Speaker 2 (03:27):
When I'm in La, I'm up at six am. When
I'm in Houston up at eight, And when I'm in
New York, I'm up at nine.
Speaker 1 (03:32):
So you're you're working all the time. He's the Batchel.
All right, we're gonna come back. Grant Ellis is here.
I'm falling for him.
Speaker 2 (03:38):
I like your glasses right here. You look shock.
Speaker 1 (03:47):
He reminds me of me in a way. December fifteenth,
nineteen ninety three in Newark, New Jersey. The world was
changed when Grant Ellis was born and lives in Houston
in Texas. Now he's on the Bachelor.
Speaker 2 (04:01):
So here's the question.
Speaker 1 (04:02):
Always good looking guy like yourself, charming, smart, professional basketball player,
played in college, went to school.
Speaker 2 (04:08):
Why I did a.
Speaker 1 (04:10):
Bachelor Yeah, honestly, so Bachelorette first, honestly Gen trans season.
Speaker 2 (04:18):
Yeah. So coming out of that seven year relationship, I
was really hurt because I put a lot into it
and I just took a lot of time to myself
and I that's when I was moving out to Houston.
I was spend a lot of time with my grandparents
and my mom, and I was really digging into my faith.
And my mom signed me up for the show because
a lot of her friends were asking about man. I
was just pushing, pushing them off and just working, and
(04:41):
she signed me up. And it kind of just happened
that way where I was coming out of that relationship,
I was really open, and I just got cast to
be on GEN season and then I got dumped and
then they asked me to be a Bachelor. So things
just happened like that, and it was at the perfect
time in my healing process where things just were put
together that way.
Speaker 1 (04:58):
I mean, look, the bill or the promo photo is
worth the whole thing. You holding the rows with the
drimming smile. It's saying ABC and Hulu on the bottom
of it. Mondays it's worth it. It's all worth it.
So you want what do you want? Like, what do
you want?
Speaker 2 (05:11):
Yeah? I genuinely want a long term commit relationship. I
think there's nothing better. Like it's easy to go and
find a connection, but to have somebody that's your best
friend and that you could really have loyalty and commitment
and it shows discipline and it's the honestly, in my opinion,
is the best way to live life.
Speaker 1 (05:29):
I'm just thinking, I don't know what happens or where
you are because you did it all or what is
going to go? But does that does that look like
marriage or just commitment without marriage?
Speaker 2 (05:36):
So when when you're ready, marriage is it's a goal
of mind, you know, when you're ready marriages goal of mine.
And everybody has different opinions, there are different things that
come with it. But uh, marriage is commitment and it's
you know, it's putting your mind to something and committing
to somebody and it's a symbol of that. So yeah,
marriage ultimately, do you like to date? No, I'm telling
you I was in a I was in a seven
year relationship and after that, I don't have much experience
(05:58):
for dating. So being thrown into a pool with twenty
five amazing women. I was kind of confused that I.
Speaker 1 (06:03):
Saw you with the watch.
Speaker 2 (06:05):
I was like, you broke your watch at the beginning
this thing. You were so nervous. I was like, what
is going on?
Speaker 1 (06:10):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (06:10):
It was a lot. And did you get in a
little more comfortable as the season went on? Yeah, I
definitely got comfortable. You know, it's weird when the cameras
are there, But I grew into the comfort, and I
grew into the role of the bachelor, and you know,
trying to figure out who was going to be the
person that was best for me. And her name is Yes, Yeah, ABC,
(06:32):
Next Day, Hulu, Well Grant, good luck man, it's so
