He’s Admitted He’s Not Spending As Much Time With Her
Although Joey has been doing his best to focus on his relationship and the competition, his time on Dancing With The Stars season 33 has been monopolizing his time, keeping him away from Kelsey and allowing rumors to swirl about his life outside his relationship. While Joey, who was a tennis instructor prior to his time on The Bachelor, has been doing well in the competition with partner Jenna Johnson, the rumors about the nature of their relationship have been causing issues with Kelsey. While most don’t necessarily believe Joey and Jenna have a non-professional relationship, the rumors are difficult.
Although both have been working to combat the rumors, things have been more difficult with the couple speaking out against them rather than ignoring them. Joey, who has openly stated he hasn’t spent as much time with Kelsey as he has in the past during the DWTS season, shared that he’s been having a hard time with the balancing act. Admitting publicly that he’s struggling to keep things balanced, Bachelor Nation’s having a hard time believing the couple is actually doing okay.
