Jenn Tran Has a DWTS Dream Team in Mind — and It Includes a Beloved Bachelor Alum Partnering with Sasha Farber

Jenn Tran is down for Dancing With the Stars partner Sasha Farber to keep it within Bachelor Nation for the next season of the ABC competition series.

“Joan Vassos should go on Dancing With Stars. I love that woman. She’s actually the sweetest and the greatest and I think she would enjoy it,” Jenn, 27, told Us Weekly during an exclusive interview at an event to celebrate her partnership with Clorox Scentiva, adding that the OG Golden Bachelorette, 62, would “absolutely” be in a good match for Sasha, 41.

Jenn met Sasha on season 33 of DWTS. While she finished in 7th place, she found a romantic connection with the pro dancer and considers the series a major highlight of life since she appeared as the season 21 Bachelorette.

When Us pointed out to Jenn that it’s been about a year since she returned from filming the dating show, Jenn described the last 365 days as “nothing that I could have ever imagined.”

“I think you go into [The Bachelorette] thinking, ‘This is gonna happen, that’s gonna happen.’ And nothing happened that I thought was actually gonna happen,” she said. “Instead, better things happened and I’ve been just so surprised. I constantly am and I’m just so grateful. The past year, I’ve really felt a lot of gratitude for what it has brought me.”

Jenn said her “highest high” occurred the first time she stepped onto the Dancing With the Stars ballroom.

“That very first rehearsal was when I was really like, ‘Holy s***. I’m on Dancing With the Stars.’ That show has been a lifetime goal of mine — a delusional goal, or so I thought.”

On the flip side, Jenn’s low point was her finale of The Bachelorette, where fans watched her relive her proposal with then-fiancé Devin Strader despite him already ending things once filming wrapped. “I think everybody saw my lowest of lows, and that’s OK.” she told Us. “I’m glad I got to share it with the world.”

Since wrapping DWTS, Jenn has returned to PA school while also taking on the opportunities that come post-reality TV.

“I live in Miami but I’m just never home. I don’t sleep and I’m just constantly thriving in chaos,” she said. “Things just pop up and I’m traveling here, I’m traveling there, I’m seeing patients here and there. I’m really just trying to take it one day at a time.”

Jenn made it clear that she was “very passionate about medicine” before and after landing her first gig on The Bachelor.

“I spent a lot of my life trying to get into PA school because it’s not an easy master’s program to get into. So it didn’t make sense for me to suddenly — just because I had a really fun year— to give it up and do other things because it is a very hard spot to get,” she explained. “My program was very nice to give me that year break, but I knew that I wanted to go back. I knew that healthcare was something that I wanted to pursue and still do and want to work in and just use my degree to help people. … There’s a lot of specialties that PAs can do and you can switch around. Once I graduate, it’ll be a little bit of trial and error.”

Overall, Jenn describes herself as in a “good” place after all the ups and downs.

“I mean, I feel like I’m running around with my head off because I’m just in five places at once, but I very much feel like I have purpose,” she said. “Being at school grounds me and I feel good about the decisions that I’ve been making.”

Jenn also finds time to work with brands that she believes in, including Clorox and she’s loving the latest scents from the Scentiva line.

“You gotta keep your home clean somehow — and I’ve been using Clorox for so many years. This new scented bleach line is amazing,” she said, referring to Clorox Scentiva bleach, which has a lavender base. “But my favorite are the wipes that you can use on the counter. The Grapefruit and Orange Blossom Wipes make your home smell so nice. “I’m someone that loves scents. I am very cautious or very aware of how people perceive me when they smell me and I think the same thing about your home, what people smell is how they perceive your home.”

Jenn mentioned Sasha when discussing her sensitivity to smells.

“He was teaching me a dance and I was like, ‘Why am I suddenly thinking about Sam from The Bachelor?’” she recalled, referring to her Bachelorette villain. “I was, like, sniffing him and I was like, ‘Oh my God, you’re wearing Sam’s cologne.’ I’m very sensitive to smells. They really do bring back memories. I feel like it transports you. And so I was like, ‘That is crazy. You’re never wearing that cologne.'”
