He reportedly went on a date with Jennifer Love Hewitt, but nothing came of it, which was for the best because he then starred on The Bachelor. His season gained a lot of attention when he chose the seasons’ ‘villian’ Courtney Robertson. The two never ended up getting married and today Ben’s doing just fine with a new girlfriend in the mix. His $800 thousand net worth is a result of being on the seventh season of The Bachelor and co-owning the business, Evolve Winery.
