Peter Kraus is one of only six bachelors remaining on Season 13 of The Bachelorette starring Rachel Lindsay.

Peter is a 31-year-old personal trainer and business owner from Madison, WI, who tends to sweep Rachel off her feet every time they're together.

Peter was a frontrunner early on because he enjoyed an amazing one-on-one date with Rachel in Los Angeles. He never appeared to lose his placement in Rachel's heart since then, but he has grown more hesitant and worried on the show since he's always fighting for her time on group dates and at cocktail parties.

However, if Peter can survive one more week of dates, he will bring Rachel home to meet his family in Wisconsin, which is ironically where the Bachelorette's ex, Nick Viall, is from. If Peter can keep up the momentum, he definitely has a chance to end up with Rachel.
