After Chris Soules was announced on Good Morning America as the newest Bachelor on Wednesday, one person who was super happy for him was his former love Andi Dorfman.

Fans React On Twitter To Chris Soules Being The Bachelor

Soules was one of the final three from Dorfman's season of The Bachelorette. Dorfman (who chose Josh Murray) tweeted her congratulations to Soules today. "Congrats to the new Bachelor, C_Soules! So excited for you!!! Some woman is going to be very lucky if she wins that heart of yours!"

Juan Pablo Galavis also congratulated Soules. "CONGRATS to the NEW Bachelor @C_Soules... Make YOUR decisions, follow your HEART, have FUN and ALWAYS stay true to YOURSELF #NotNegotiable".

Soules was a front-runner for the job, although fans didn't know until Wednesday that he was picked. "At the end of the day, Chris is everything the show is based on," Harrison told TV Guide. "He's that diamond in the rough from middle America who more than ever needs the show to find his wife. It reminds me of Aaron Buerge in Missouri. He needed the show to expand his horizons. So, it takes us back to where the show began."

"He's very smart, articulate and he's professional," Harrison continued. "Like Andi, he'll approach 'the job' the same way. I don't know if we would've had that same attitude with anybody else at the top of our list."

Harrison also called Soules "sincere" and said that he's "looking for love."

"If there was ever guy we'd say will walk away with someone, it's Chris. So, for those who are worried, you just haven't seen what you'll see during the show."
