Blake Moynes Reveals His Bachelor Nation Crushes After Breakup with Tayshia Adams
After reigning Bachelorette Tayshia Adams broke up with Blake Moynes during this week’s two-part installment of "The Bachelorette," the Season 16 contestant said he’s already crushing on other Bachelor Nation stars.
Blake recently appeared on Ben Higgins and Ashley Iaconetti’s "Almost Famous" podcast, during which he spoke about the possibility of joining a future cast of "Bachelor in Paradise" — and revealed which ladies within the franchise he’d like to date if he does indeed make it to the beach.
"I came into this experience fully invested and looking for something. I’m at a place in my life where I’m not here to play around anymore," Blake said. "So, if someone comes around and connects all the dots and checks all the boxes for me, then you won’t see me in ‘Paradise’ by the time that comes about in the summer."
But if the handsome Canadian still hasn’t found The One, he said he will definitely consider. "If I’m single by that time, then there’s probably a good chance you’ll see me there. But I’m actively looking for my person, so I’m not setting things aside or changing my life," he continued. "I’m living normally again and looking for somebody. So, it’s probably 50/50."
Blake went on to say that he would love to meet "someone who’s like-minded" and in the "same part of their life where they’re ready for something." When Ashley pressed him for names, he mentioned three women in particular.
"I like that Kendall Long has an interest in animals and loves that kind of thing," the wildlife manager said of the gorgeous taxidermy enthusiast. "We could connect in that way. And she’s cute."
Next on Blake’s list was former Bachelorette Andi Dorfman. "She’s got her s--t together," he said. "She’s got it all figured out."
He also noted that Kristina Schulman is "really good-looking," although he admitted, "I don’t know anything about her."
Added Blake, "There are girls that I definitely have an eye on, in a way, but I don’t know if we’ll ever see them in 'Paradise,' so who knows?"
The "Bachelorette" Season 16 finale airs in two parts next week on Monday and Tuesday at 8 p.m. on ABC.
