Who exactly is Luke Parker, you ask? Well, he’s the Bachelorette contestant who started out with the same vibes as a golden retriever puppy but very quickly became the villain of the cast. Most of this season has revolved around drama that Luke P. has started, TBH. Here’s what you need to know about the guy who is singlehandedly delivering Chris Harrison’s promise that this is “the most dramatic season yet.” This content is imported from {embed-name}.

ABC Also: Don’t read any further if you don’t traffic in spoilers. Also, forget you! Spoilers rule! He’s a Georgia peach The 24-year-old is from Atlanta, Georgia, which means he might be a nice match for the former Miss Alabama. Southern charm, y’all! He’s athletic Luke went to Faulkner University, where he played baseball and studied sports management. He’s a “current entrepreneur” and his part-time job is CrossFit His LinkedIn page is magnificent and needs to be seen to be believed. Or mainly just to read “Current Entrepreneur. My part time job is CrossFit!” You must love a man who uses an exclamation point in his LinkedIn intro. He was (allegedly) crushing on Hannah before the season According to the gossip site SoapDirt, Luke was lusting after Hannah before the season. They report that her friends and family say he “admired her faith and beauty” and she’s the only one he wanted. Intense. He made quite the first impression (rose) Luke received the first-impression rose from Hannah. Luke and Hannah majorly hit it off almost immediately and she rewarded him for his service (to her ego) by giving him that coveted thorny flower. ABC But then, he pulled a major Bachelorette faux pas. Luke P. did the unthinkable by telling Hannah that he’s falling in love with her in the SECOND EPISODE! That’s way too soon, my dude! Hannah was into it...but all the other contestants viewed it as a cheap shot. Plus, it was during a talent competition where he decided to just drop the L-bomb instead of showcase an actual skill, which somehow makes it even worse. He straight-up slut-shamed Hannah. Hannah went bungee jumping during a one-on-one date with Garrett. The catch was...they were both fully buck naked. Luke had a huge problem with this and freaked out. He totally slut-shamed Hannah, and thankfully, the rest of the guys had a serious problem with it. Not cool, Luke! He basically gave us a master class in gaslighting At this point, the dictionary needs to just throw a streaming link to this season of The Bachelorette under the definition of “gaslighting.” Luke has lied, blamed his actions on Hannah, and done tons of other shady stuff that is textbook manipulation. It’s super difficult to watch! He’s a sweet, sweet fantasy, baby Rumor has it that Hannah invited him into her fantasy suite (vagina) (JK, I don’t know if they did it) when the two were in Santorini, Greece, together. He’s in the promo for Hannah’s season And in it, he admits to really, really liking her. Hannah’s response? Same. Luke def looks like the one to beat. This content is imported from Instagram.

Luke P. rubs almost all his fellow contestants the wrong way, but this isn’t just a case of clashing personalities. He gets super aggressive with the other guys, and during a group date, a physical altercation with Luke S. turns into a long, drawn-out fight. Ugh. This fully opens the gossip floodgates with the rest of the men and suddenly, everyone’s talking about how much they hate Luke P. But we kinda knew this was coming. The season preview gave us a heads-up. This content is imported from YouTube. You may be able to find the same content in another format, or you may be able to find more information, at their web site. Luke is also totally aware of the fact that he’s coming across as super unlikable, so he took to Instagram to address it and try to convince us that he’s not so bad. In a caption, he wrote, “My behavior in all situations has been and will continue to be exposed,” so...let’s see how bad this actually gets.

Viewers actually got to meet Luke during Hannah's appearance on Colton Underwood's Bachelor finale, and spoilers suggest that this contestant be one to watch this spring. According to his ABC bio, Parker is 24-years-old and hails from Gainesville, Georgia. Prior to filming, Luke's bio noted that he worked as an import and export manager. Spoiler guru Reality Steve shares that Luke went to Faulkner University in Alabama where he played basketball. Parker's LinkedIn page details that he is currently an entrepreneur, and he quips that CrossFit is his part-time job. Luke lists volunteering at a Presbyterian church on his page and notes he received an associate of arts degree from Polk State College and a bachelor's degree in communications and sports management from High Point University. At Faulkner University, he studied sports management. The Times out of Gainesville notes that Luke grew up in Ponte Vedra Beach, Florida. He played baseball throughout his youth as well as at Polk State in Winter Haven, Florida. Apparently, Luke continued to play baseball at both High Point in North Carolina as well as Faulkner in Alabama. Parker's import and export managerial experience comes from working in the family business, a business that has been around for 45 years. It sounds as if Luke is close to his family. ABC | John Fleenor Luke's sister-in-law Hannah Parker says that The Bachelorette star went through a bad breakup about a year ago, and she secretly submitted him as a contestant for this season. Apparently, Luke was only interested in doing the show if Hannah was the one handing out roses. Religion is also important to Luke, who attends Christ Place Church. The Bachelorette contender helps with the college ministry and has previously taught Sunday school classes. Apparently, Hannah and Luke even went to the same church via different campuses during their Alabama college days. Mike Robertson, a friend of Luke's from church, describes his buddy as outgoing with a great personality and says that Parker is very genuine. However, as The Inquisitr has noted, some previews for The Bachelorette have signaled that many of the other guys didn't care much for Parker. Luke's family and friends seem to be bracing themselves for a potentially troublesome edit, notes The Times, and they are apparently trying to help Parker himself prepare for some rocky times ahead. They noted they are glad to have him back home and say they support him all the way. The Inquisitr has revealed some juicy Bachelorette spoilers detailing what Reality Steve has shared about Luke's journey this spring. Will Luke Parker be the one to capture Hannah Brown's heart?

Will Hannah Brown find love on the upcoming season of The Bachelorette? Hopefully, yes! We know you want to find out what happens, so if you’re inpatient, keep scrolling for more information on who wins Hannah’s heart this season. SPOILER ALERT: Don’t continue to read if you don’t want to know what happens! THE VILLAIN Red flag alert! According to the trailer, it appears that Luke Parker, a.k.a. Luke P, will be the most hated guy in the house this season, and the blonde bombshell even called him out. “Why does every single guy here dislike you?” she asked him. Mike J. shared some insight into the situation in his confessional. “We all know that Luke P. is an evil, pathological liar,” he said. Oh, and he even told him how he really felt to his face. “You’re violent, you’re aggressive, you are a psychopath,” he fumed. However, according to Luke’s biography on ABC, the 24-year-old bad boy described himself as “being able to get along with anyone” and “’for better or for worse’ means unconditional love.” Yeah, OK. John Fleenor / Getty Images THE FIRST IMPRESSION ROSE Unfortunately, Luke lands the first impression rose, according to Reality Steve. “This could mean something. Or not. However, last four guys who received the first impression rose on The Bachelorette went on to get the final rose,” he wrote on Twitter on March 18. “Hannah B. gave her first impression rose to Luke Parker. He was the first of the five guys she met on the After the Final Rose.” Hopefully, the former beauty pageant queen, 24, finds out that he is trouble before the end! “Ultimately, I want at the end of this to know that they know me and know every part of me, not just some version of myself that I packaged together and was like, ‘Do you like this?’ I think I’ve done that in the past, the good and the bad, and I want that in return,” she told Ellen DeGeneres about what type of man she’s looking for on March 18. THE TOP FOUR Drumroll, please. Luke Parker, Tyler Cameron, Jed Wyatt and Peter Weber are Hannah’s top four men, according to Reality Steve. However, the TV guru thinks that Peter will be eliminated next. “Anything can happen but from what I’ve heard all season Jed, Luke and Tyler were going to be her final three for a while now,” he wrote on his website. “I guess we’ll see for sure come Saturday, but don’t be surprised if that’s your final three.” THE WINNER Well, we aren’t too sure who wins right now, but Reality Steve seems to think Luke and Tyler are definitely in the final three. One thing is for sure — the Alabama native is ready to find her Prince Charming, and she’s actually here for the right reasons. “Hannah is so ready for an engagement,” a source exclusively told Life & Style. “She went into The Bachelor ready to find love and even more so now she’s ready to open up, be vulnerable and find her ‘one.’” The insider added, “Hannah is a hopeless romantic, and she’s looking for her perfect love story … She really wants to get married and start a family.” Craig Sjodin / Getty Images Who will the lucky guy be? Only time will tell!
