'Bachelor' Jason Mesnick is Engaged

Jason Mesnick is a "Bachelor" no more! The single dad has found love on ABC's reality dating series "The Bachelor" and he's talking about it.

"I'm engaged," he tells People. "I found exactly what I was hoping for, what I was looking for. I’m completely in love."

The 32-year-old Seattle native returns to reality television on Jan. 5 as the newest bachelor-- he was previously on "The Bachelorette" with DeAnna Pappas where she chose snowboarder Jesse Csincsak over him.

"I don’t want to be by myself," Mesnick says. "I’m ready for a relationship and a family."

Mesnick talks about his intentions for going on the show. "I was not looking for a mom,” he says. “I was looking for a partner for me and a mentor and a friend to [my son]."

Mesnick got his wish! "I just really believed this can happen to me,” he says. “I cannot believe it’s this great!"
