The Bachelorette host Chris Harrison believes Robby Hayes is a big threat to win JoJo Fletcher's love despite the fact he seemed to come out of nowhere.

During the latest The Bachelorette episode, both Hayes and Jordan Rodgers had their first one-on-one dates of the season with Fletcher. She appeared to save both guys for the first set of extremely romantic dates in a different country, so that alone could be very telling when it comes to where her heart was leading her.

"Jordan got the first one-on-one date. After getting the First Impression Rose, he had really been waiting a long time to get that quality time with JoJo. The date to the island of the seals was out of this world... You can see they have an undeniable chemistry," Harrison wrote in his Yahoo! TV blog.

However, Fletcher felt the need to confront Rodgers about claims his ex-girlfriend had made before The Bachelorette began filming. Fletcher bumped into this woman -- presumably Brittany Farrar, who blasted Rodgers on social media as being a cheater and fame-seeker when the show premiered -- and learned that the ex had trust issues with the former pro quarterback and he allegedly didn't treat her well.

"They discussed some of the underlying fears that JoJo had. JoJo had been warned that Jordan wasn't great in a previous relationship, and I think it's really important that JoJo addresses these fears she has instead of working them all through in her head," Harrison said.

"Communication is key to all relationships and Jordan and JoJo have a head start on honesty and openness."

While Fletcher admitted her solo date with Rodgers was one of the best days she had throughout her entire The Bachelorette journey, her date with Hayes was also golden.

"The last one-on-one date of the week went to Robby. Robby is the first guy to tell JoJo that he is in love with her. It may seem fast, but their connection was instantaneous and Robby, as evidenced by his story about his best friend, lives life to the fullest and goes after every moment," Harrison wrote.

"Their relationship is easy and it's clear that Robby is a frontrunner that nobody saw coming. JoJo always says she needs words of affirmation and Robby definitely has no problem providing them."
