Zach had one of the first one-on-one dates with Rachel on this season of The Bachelorette. As the season progressed, Rachel had a successful meeting with Zach’s family, and he told her that he was in love with her. Unfortunately, things took a turn when the two were spending time off-camera during their fantasy suite date. Zach, who was 25 at the time, revealed that Rachel started questioning whether or not he was ready for an engagement. He assured her that he was ready to commit, but said that things were “off” between them during their overnight.
