People Magazine: The Bachelor's Peter Weber Starred in a Commercial When He Was a Kid for the Sylvan Learning Center

TL;DR

Peter Weber, star of The Bachelor, appeared in a Sylvan Learning commercial as a child. The commercial has resurfaced on social media, with Sylvan Learning's CMO and Vice President of Franchise Development commenting on the unexpected turn of events.

According to People Magazine, this is not The Bachelor’s Peter Weber’s first time on your television. Leave it to the die hard Bachelor fans on Twitter to resurface Weber’s childhood acting days in a Sylvan Learning commercial from 2005. Prior to becoming a pilot, the reality star played a student who found a love for learning as a direct result of the tutoring he received from Sylvan Learning.

"It has been fun seeing this ad gain so much traction recently," said Sylvan Learning CMO Amy Przywara. "We shot this over a decade ago in LA, and Peter was hired as our lovable student actor. It's funny how everything took shape, but we are certainly enjoying watching the organic social and media pick-ups."

The Sylvan Learning commercial has rapidly spread across the internet to outlets including Refinery29, Popsugar and PureWow. Today, Weber is on the hunt for his future fiancé in The Bachelor mansion.

"It's funny the paths that our lives take aren't always as planned,” said Vice President of Franchise Development Georgia Chasen. “We definitely didn't know Peter would one day be on national TV looking for the love of his life, and many of our franchisees come to us not knowing that becoming a Sylvan franchisee and making a difference in their local communities would be their path to both business and personal success, yet it often is."
