The Bachelor: Kelsey Anderson's Lifelong Dream Comes True (Will It Interfere With Wedding Planning?)

   

Since Kelsey Anderson appeared on The Bachelor season 28, her modeling career has taken off, but will it interfere with wedding planning? 26-year-old Kelsey met 30-year-old Joey Graziadei on night one of his season, along with 31 other women who were hoping to win his heart. The season was historical in that it was the biggest number of contestants to ever compete in a season, so Kelsey had lots of challengers. Joey liked Kelsey right away, and their bond deepened with time. Though the competition was stiff, Kelsey won Joey's heart, his final rose, and a diamond engagement ring.

Kelsey Has Her Own Line Of Swimsuits

She Recently Collaborated With A Major Swimwear Retailer

The life Kelsey lived before joining the cast of The Bachelor season 28 changed completely after her stint on the show. Before reality television fame came calling, she was a junior project manager in New Orleans, Louisiana. Now she's a prominent influencer with a massive social media following, who has been quietly growing an impressive portfolio. Kelsey currently boasts 879K followers on Instagram and 815K followers on TikTok. Joey's no slouch at 440K followers on TikTok and a whopping 1 million Instagram followers.

Kelsey recently announced an exciting new partnership with Cupshe and posted an Instagram video of herself wearing swimsuits she helped the brand design. Partnering with a major swimwear brand must be a dream come true for the beauty influencer. While Kelsey often posts about her relationship with Joey, she also often posts about beauty and fashion, so this is the perfect partnership for The Bachelor season 28 star.

After being engaged for well over a year, Joey and Kelsey recently revealed when they'd be getting married. During a recent interview with Sports Illustrated Swimsuit, Joey and Kelsey revealed they'd like to tie the knot during the summer of 2027. The Bachelor season 28 stars confessed they wanted to do it in 2026, but felt overwhelmed by how soon that felt like it was.
