Summary

Garrett McNamara from HBO’s 100 Foot Wave, a six-part series intimately capturing the decade-long odyssey of surfing pioneer Garrett McNamara, who, after visiting Nazaré, Portugal in hopes of conquering a 100 foot wave, pushed the sport to ever-greater heights and alongside locals helped transform the small fishing village into the world’s pre-eminent big-wave surfing destination. 

 

Fans were first introduced to Blake Horstmann on The Bachelorette, where he ended up as the runner-up on season 14 with Becca Kufrin. He then appeared on Bachelor in Paradise's sixth season in 2019, during which he quit part-way through after a drama-filled summer with two suitors. He explains what it is like to be a contestant on The Bachelorette and Bachelor in Paradise, and what he thought about the season 7 premiere this week.
