Fans have been speculating about Joey and Kelsey for months, especially after he joined the ABC competition series, and the scrutiny over their relationship has even led them to admit they have a disagreement over one key area of their future.

Fans also speculated heavily about issues with the pair's relationship when Kelsey suddenly appeared to be absent from social media–and she had to clarify that their relationship was okay when she also missed the Golden Bachelorette The Men Tell All Special, which featured her dad, Mark Anderson.

However, in addition to all the curiosity surrounding their relationship and whether it will survive, some have criticized that Kelsey seems to be making money as an influencer these days–labeling her as an attention-seeker as a result.

After the backlash, she took to TikTok to address those who slammed her.

The clip, which was only seven seconds long, appeared to directly address her critics with her clear and direct message.

Speaking directly to the camera with a glass of wine in her hand, Kelsey mouthed along to a soundtrack- “You’re just posting that for attention, uh yeah, obviously b—h!”

She then danced along and smiled.

The clip amassed a series of comments in reaction to it, with Joey one of the first, simply saying “DAMN” in response.

Others also reacted to Kelsey’s moves in the video, noting not that she was an “attention-seeker” but that she knew how to dance herself, despite Joey being the one on a dancing competition show.

“Ok so confirmed u and joey r gonna hv some dancer kids one day because YALL CAN MOVEE,” one wrote.

“Kelsey for DWTS next season!!!!!!” another said.

“EXCUSE MEEE? Maybe they shouldve invited you on DWTS girlie!!” another declared.

The post comes as Kelsey has faced backlash over her paid partnerships and sponsorship posts.

They include ones with Amazon, Macy’s, Chomps, Little Words Project, and L’Oreal.

Joey has also become an influencer as well since his time as The Bachelor.

Some of his paid partnerships have included Columbia Sportswear, Vitality and Liquid IV.
