What Happened To Zoe McGrady After The Bachelor Season 29?

Zoe McGrady made it to Grant Ellis' final three on The Bachelor season 29, but where has she been ever since? Zoe, a 27-year-old model and tech engineer, made her television debut as one of the 25 women dating Grant this season. She had a unique Bachelor Nation journey, as she was the only one among the final four women who never received a solo date. For whatever reason, she and Grant never seemed to connect during the season, so it was a surprise when she got one of his hometown dates.

It would have been impossible for Grant not to notice the stunning Zoe the moment they met on night one of The Bachelor season 29. They even had minor moments during group dates, like when they played basketball together. Unlike some of the more aggressive women, Zoe was more laid back and quiet. She waited for Grant to come to her, which is a bold choice on a reality television show where attention is currency. Zoe's style worked for her. She got one of Grant's final three roses. Read on to find out where she's been ever since.

Zoe's Journey On The Bachelor

Grant Barely Seemed To Notice Her

Though he barely seemed to notice her during most of the season, Grant kept The Bachelor season 29's Zoe until the final three. Maybe it was just the editing, but he seemed to have little connection to Zoe. In addition to never getting a solo date, Zoe didn't get much individual attention from Grant at all. It was easy to forget Zoe was even there most of the time, so it was pretty surprising when she received a hometown date and when she made it to the final three. He eliminated her before the final two.

Zoe Has Become Close With Several Women From Her Season

She's A Girl's Girl

Unlike some of the women from The Bachelor season 29, Zoe seemed to get along with everyone. She seemed to get close to the final women, including 31-year-old Dina Lupanco. Dina got sent home after her hometown date in a shocking elimination. She appeared to be one of Grant's favorites, but he was turned off by her parents not wanting to meet him. After his failed attempt to meet them in Chicago, he had to settle for meeting her friends. He sent Dina home and gave Zoe one of his final three roses.

Zoe posted Instagram photos of herself hanging out with several of the women from her season, including Dina. Several other familiar faces are recognizable in the photos, like 27-year-old Alexe Godin, 29-year-old Sarafiena Watkins, and 31-year-old Litia Garr. Some women had drama during The Bachelor season 29, but everyone seemed to like Zoe.

Zoe Will Appear On Bachelor In Paradise

She Was Named As The Season's First Contestant

During The Bachelor season 29 finale, host Jesse Palmer announced Bachelor In Paradise season 10 would premiere in the summer. He also announced Zoe was the season's first contestant. Now that Zoe will be on BIP, it's less likely that she'll ever be The Bachelorette. Jesse then announced the season's big twist. In addition to casting former contestants from The Bachelor and The Bachelorette, this season will also include contestants from The Golden Bachelor and The Golden Bachelorette. It isn't clear how this will work, like if there will be two rose ceremonies.

In addition to Zoe from The Bachelor 29, two of the Golden cast members were also announced. Leslie Fhima and Gary Levingston will also be making their franchise return during Bachelor In Paradise season 10. Gary, a 65-year-old retired finance executive from California, was eliminated early during The Golden Bachelorette. Leslie Fhima. Leslie, a 65-year-old fitness instructor from Minnesota, was one of Gerry Turner's final two women during The Golden Bachelor season 1.
