It takes a special kind of quality for a person to be adored as a blue-eyed innocent who must be protected and someone who’s admired for throwing shade.

If you want to get you a man who can do both, however, look no further than Dean Unglert.

He may have lost his season of The Bachelorette, but Dean Unglert is on this season of Bachelor in Paradise. And he’s even shared a photo:

There he is!

If the photo looks a little odd to you, Dean totally addresses that … sort of … in his caption:

"Even though it looks like I was photoshopped into this picture, I promise I was in Paradise this summer. And I promise I make a complete ass out of myself. Yay! #almostparadise"

Well, as you might recall, it was actually spoiled a while ago that Dean Unglert was spotted in Paradise, thanks to a certain sex scandal that got the show’s production shut down.

But it’s still super exciting, because he’s a real favorite from this season of The Bachelorette.

He wasn’t everyone’s pick to win, by any means, but he has some very endearing qualities that made him a popular guy.

(So popular, in fact, that Men Tell All made it pretty clear that Dean Unglert’s a favorite to star on The Bachelor)

But there are a couple of things in Dean’s captions that we need to discuss.

First, he says that he promises that he makes a real ass out of himself.

That’s not impossible to picture.

Part of what makes Dean so very lovable for countless fans is that, well, he goofs up sometimes.

(He’s young and that kind of goes with the territory, right?)

His dad’s an eccentric guy and just the right amount of that has clearly rubbed off on Dean, even though he and his dad still have some issues to work through.

Dean might have joined bestie Peter Kraus in shading Bryan Abasolo, but Dean is not a hateful person by any stretch of the imagination.

It’s hard to picture him making an ass of himself, though he might embarrass himself once or twice, sure.

Remember, this dude is so lovable that he formed a lasting friendship with one of his biggest competitors and a fellow member of The Bachelorette‘s final four.

But what’s maybe the most interesting is that little hashtag at the end of Dean’s caption.

Maybe he just means that it’s almost time for Bachelor in Paradise.

But maybe he means that not everything was perfect.

Which would indicate that he probably doesn’t meet the love of his life on this season of Bachelor in Paradise.

Which would mean that he will be very free to be the next Bachelor.

The Bachelorette, of course, ends tonight.

If you’ve been following The Bachelorette Spoilers, then you know the results already.

It will be interesting to see how events play out and how these things go down.

We know that this final breakup is going to be hell.

With that in mind, we’re actually pretty glad that Dean didn’t make it this far.

And we’re excited to see where he goes!
