By the time "hometown" dates rolled around, Tayshia was worried Brendan may not be ready to propose marriage by the end of the process or get married in the near future.

Brendan, however, assured the cameras that he was crazy about Tayshia and said, "[She] is a really unique woman, for sure. She is sweet and genuine, and I do feel Tayshia and I have a real connection."

Brendan later added, "I could definitely see Tayshia as the mother of my kids. I really do see something real here... If I could have molded a Bachelorette, it would be Tayshia."

And Tayshia admitted she's "enamored" and "all in" with Brendan but found him hard to read at times.

After meeting his family, Tayshia gushed in a confessional, "It's like 'game over' in a sense. I truly feel like Brendan could be my husband, and I could really see him standing next to me at the end of all this."

Brendan, however, only wants to propose marriage one more time and make that marriage last forever. So will he and Tayshia end up together and be happy?

Until viewers can watch what happens next between Tayshia and Brendan, let's learn some things to know about The Bachelorette suitor right now.
