One of Florida's hottest stars is putting a national spotlight on his hometown this month.

USA TODAY's Florida Network talked to "Bachelorette" and "Special Forces" star Tyler Cameron about his most personal project yet — Amazon Prime's "Going Home with Tyler Cameron."

Set to debut on April 18, Cameron talked about learning while on the job and how viewers could "grow up with him" as he increased his skills. He also shared what it means to put Jupiter in the limelight and how the show will show him renovating his late mother's home.

"It was tough. It was hard but we still made it to what she would have wanted it to be...  It was very bittersweet in the sense that I would love to give her those keys," Cameron said about building his mother's dream home.

Throughout the season, Cameron quickly rose up in both Brown's and Bachelor Nation's rankings. He ended up making it to the final two spots. But shockwaves were felt around the reality television universe when Cameron exited the limo on the final episode and Brown turned down his proposal.

However, his popularity didn't end with Brown's season. He has since appeared in several shows over the years and even wrote his own book "You Deserve Better: What Life Has Taught Me About Love, Relationships, and Becoming Your Best Self" in 2021.

"Going Home with Tyler Cameron" follows the reality television star as he follows his dream of starting his own construction and home renovation company.

"After the sudden loss of his mother, Tyler moved back to his hometown, Jupiter, Florida, to reunite with his family and finally achieve his goal of launching his business, Image One," Amazon Prime's description says. "With the help of his team members - house-flipping expert, Robb Ritch, and Miami-based interior designer, Jessica Quintero - Tyler builds his company from the ground up, exceeding his clients’ expectations one home renovation at a time."

The series features appearances by Bachelor Nation stars Matt James, Rachael Kirkconnell, Jason Tartick and even Cameron’s former flame and "The Bachelorette" of his season, Hannah Brown.

The season ends with the most important renovation project of them all – turning the house that Tyler’s late mom left behind into the family home that she always dreamed of. In 2020, Tyler Cameron’s mom, Andrea Cameron, suddenly passed away due to a brain aneurysm.

Cameron told the USA TODAY Network-Florida about seeing the home completed in the final episode.

"My mom's house, having everyone together, the true raw emotions … I bawled my eyes (out). I cried a bunch and it was special. It was something that I think people are going to, be able to see, relate to, understand and feel what I went through and what THAT house means to all of us. I think it's a special, special moment and I'm so glad that I get to share this with everybody."
