The Bachelor Winter Games is here, bringing the alum of Bachelor Nation from all over the world together to compete in winter sports and possibly fall in love. One of the competitors this season is Ben Higgins, who is a fan favorite.

Higgins was on The Bachelor Season 20. He made headlines because he told JoJo Fletcher that he loved her only to send her home and propose to Lauren Bushnell. He and Bushnell tried to make it work and starred on the reality show, Ben & Lauren: Happily Ever After? before eventually calling it quits.

But has he finally found love on the new spinoff show? Here are seven things we know about his time on The Bachelor Winter Games.

1. Higgins admits he has struggled to date after his breakup

The former reality star hasn’t totally recovered from his public breakup with Bushnell. So we will probably see some of that on the show.

He told People:

It did affect the way I interacted with women [on the show] and it does that in real life. Coming off of a breakup, it’s smart to take time to process through things but also to make sure you do know what you’re looking for. I knew that what I was looking for was somebody very similar to what I had before and just a partner, somebody who was patient and kind and willing to go out there and tackle the world side-by-side.

Next: He will go deeper into his breakup with this person.
