The Bachelor's Joey Graziadei and Kelsey Anderson have just kicked off another new year together, but they appear to be in no hurry to set a wedding date. Their season started filming in September 2023, which is when 28-year-old Joey met 26-year-old Kelsey on night one of the unscripted reality competition. Kelsey was one of the 32 women who had traveled from all over the United States for a chance to win Joey's heart. The tennis pro from Hawaii was Charity Lawson's runner-up during The Bachelorette season 20, so the women already knew he was.
Joey and Kelsey connected early and often during The Bachelorette season 1. By the time he was handing out his final rose, it was such a foregone conclusion that Joey would pick Kelsey that his runner-up, 26-year-old Daisy Kent, essentially withdrew from the competition. Joey and Kelsey have a lot of chemistry, and their relationship seems to have flourished since they got engaged on the show. Despite appearing to be in a happy relationship, Joey and Kelsey don't seem to be in any hurry to set a wedding date.
Joey's New Contract Will Keep Him Busy
He'll Keep Dancing With The Stars
Joey has stayed busy since proposing to Kelsey during The Bachelor season 28 final rose ceremony. He appeared as a contestant on Dancing With The Stars season 33 and even won. Since winning, he signed a contract agreeing to appear on the DWTS live show which tours all over the country. If Joey's going to be touring with a live show, he won't be in any position to plan a wedding anytime soon.
Joey & Kelsey Moved To Los Angeles
They're Settling Into Their New Lives
When Joey signed on to compete on Dancing With The Stars season 33, he and Kelsey moved to Los Angeles, where the show films in front of a live audience. Kelsey was there in the audience cheering Joey on every night, and often her father, Mark Anderson from The Golden Bachelorette season 1, was there with her. After Joey won the show, he and Kelsey decided to stay in Los Angeles. Chances are, they'll want to fully settle into their new lives before they focus on wedding planning.
Will Joey & Kelsey Set A Date Soon?
Any Day Now
In August 2024, Kelsey and Joey posted an Instagram sponsorship with the convenience store chain, Wawa. In the clip, when fans ask about a wedding date, Kelsey replied, "definitely within the next two years." She went on to say that they'd pick a date "within the next six months." Since that was about four months ago, The Bachelor couple could make an announcement any day now. Though they have yet to announce a date, Joey and Kelsey shared their engagement film shoot, so they're excited about their wedding.
The Bachelor seasons 1-28 can be streamed on Hulu.
