Former The Golden Bachelorette season 1 contestant Mark Anderson is rumored to have a new girlfriend, One Tree Hill actress Barbara Alyn Woods, and now his future son-in-law, The Bachelor's Joey Graziadei is speaking out about the possible new romance. The Golden Bachelorette season 1 star Joan Vassos broke up with Mark after he seemed to not be as ready as she was for a new relationship after the deaths of their spouses. The week after his elimination, Barbara posted a photograph from a Halloween party, in which she was dressed as Cinderella, and Mark was Prince Charming.
Joey didn't seem to have any information about the possible new couple.
In an interview with Access Hollywood after his Dancing With The Stars season 33 Halloween dance, Joey discussed his fiancée Kelsey's dad Mark's rumored new romance with Barbara. When asked to confirm or deny if Mark was about to hard launch his relationship with Barbara, Joey didn't seem to have any information about the possible new couple. He replied, "I have no idea what's going on. All I know is I saw pictures like everyone else did for Halloween, and he went to a party, and she was there. And they were wearing similar outfits. That's all I know."
Whether or not Joey knows the truth about Mark and Barbara's relationship, he wishes his future father-in-law nothing but the best in the future. He said, "Mark deserves the world. I've said it every single time, and I think, honestly, he's got so much of that experience. And I'm just rooting for him moving forward in whatever it's going to be."

What Joey Graziadei’s Reaction Means For Mark Anderson’s Rumored GF
It Doesn't Seem Possible That Mark Would Reveal His Relationship Before Telling Kelsey & Joey
Joey's comments appear to imply that Mark and Barbara's Halloween costumes were a coincidence. It seems impossible that Barbara would reveal their new relationship online before Mark told Kelsey and Joey about it. Joey said that he saw the pictures of them like everyone else did, and he had no idea what was going on. Therefore, it seems that Joey is telling the truth, and Mark and Barbara just happened to be wearing matching costumes at a party.
Our Take On Mark Anderson’s Rumored New Relationship
Mark & Barbara Could Be In The Very Early Stages Of Getting To Know Each Other
Joey is a very sincere person, and it would be hard to imagine him lying about Mark and Barbara's relationship. However, if he was asked to keep it quiet, then perhaps that's why he said that he didn't know about it. It's also possible that Mark and Barbara are in the very early stages of getting to know each other, and they don't want to do it in the public eye. Then again, Barbara probably wouldn't have posted about it if that were true.
Whatever Mark and Barbara's relationship turns out to be, like Joey, I wish Mark nothing but the best. He deserves to find love after the loss of his wife, which obviously affected him very deeply. Although it would be fantastic to see him in a relationship now, I'd also love for him to be the star of The Golden Bachelor season 2 in the future. Hopefully, whatever path Mark takes, this Prince Charming will live happily ever after.
