The Bachelor's Joey Graziadei Teams Up With An Ex On New Project After Kelsey Anderson Relationship Backlash

   

Joey Graziadei and one of his exes from The Bachelor are about to team up on national TV. Joey met and fell in love with his now-fiancé, Kelsey Anderson, during The Bachelor season 28. Their relationship has been one of the highlights of Bachelor Nation in recent months after various breakups, including from The Golden Bachelor's Gerry Turner and Theresa Nist, and The Bachelorette's Jenn Tran and Devin Strader. Their critics have tried to break them up, to no avail, even as Kelsey cheers Joey on while he competes in Dancing With The Stars season 33.

The Bachelor’s Kelsey Anderson looks suspiciously at a mystery figure, and Joey Graziadei looks down, somber.

The Bachelor 's Joey Graziadei will be working closely with one of his exes after social media backlash over his relationship with Kelsey Anderson.

Jenn took to Instagram to reveal that she and her Bachelor ex, Joey, are working together on the team dance that will be featured in the next episode of Dancing With The Stars. She posted a video of her, Joey and everyone else on their team dancing for the camera, with the caption, "We might be team goofs but we’re not goofin around with this team dance," and two zany face emojis. Kelsey left a comment with no words but instead posted four fire emojis to express her approval of the team dance.

In the next episode of DWTS, the remaining celebrities and their professional dance partners will perform on Disney Night. Aside from regular performances seen every week, the team dance competition is also making a comeback. Both teams will perform a freestyle routine. Joey and Jenna are on Team Goofs with Chandler Kinney and Ilona Maher, while Team Roar consists of Danny Amendola, Dwight Howard, Phaedra Parks and Stephen Nedoroscik.

In the comments section of Jenn's Instagram post, there were some people wondering if this team dance will be awkward since Joey and Jenn dated on The Bachelor, and he rejected her in fifth place and proposed to Kelsey instead. Others defended the reality stars by pointing out that Joey is in a secure and healthy relationship with Kelsey. Despite what their critics may believe, it's true that Joey and Kelsey are secure enough in their relationship that it doesn't matter if one of Joey's Bachelor exes is dancing with him as part of the team dance competition on DWTS.

Ever since Joey and Kelsey got engaged at the end of The Bachelor season 28, it has become clear that he made the right decision in choosing her. Over the past several months, they have had each other's backs when their critics tried to tear them apart. Their chemistry together is unmatched, which is always on full display on their social media pages.

Kelsey has even hung out with other women from The Bachelor whom Joey rejected, including Daisy Kent and Maria Georgas. So Joey dancing with Jenn won't bother Kelsey. She is confident and mature enough that she doesn't need haters telling her otherwise. Even when Joey's dance partner Jenna Johnson was criticized for having her hands on Joey in a photo shoot, Kelsey defended the action because she knows that's a normal pose on DWTS. Despite what social media critics say, Kelsey is just going to keep being herself and supporting her fiancé, even if he's dancing with an ex.

Dancing With The Stars airs Tuesdays at 8 p.m. EDT on ABC and Disney Plus.
