Becca Kufrin’s Ex-Boyfriend Ross Jirgl: Everything You Need to Know

We're nearing the finish line of this season of The Bachelor, and Arie Luyendyk Jr. is down to his three final ladies: Becca, Kendall, and Lauren.

Tonight's episode is gearing up to be unusually dramatic for a typical 'overnights' episode. Why? Well, a man we've never met before will turn up, and demand his lady back. The problem is that "his lady" is also one of Arie's final three.

In tonight's episode, Becca's ex-boyfriend, Ross Jirgl, will travel all the way to Peru to win back Becca. He even proposes to her. Obviously, Arie isn't too happy with this, seeing as he could be proposing to Becca in a matter of days.

The official ABC description for tonight reads, "A determined man has flown all the way to Peru to win back his ex-girlfriend. A series of intense confrontations follows, casting doubt on which two women Arie will choose and who will be sent home brokenhearted.”
