The Bachelor’s Kelsey Anderson Reveals What She Thinks Will Finally Take The Spotlight Off Her & Joey Graziadei Amid Relationship Backlash & A New Living Situation

The Bachelorstar Kelsey Anderson revealed something that could finally take the spotlight off of her and Joey Graziadei amid relationship backlash and a brand-new living situation. Kelsey, who met Joey during The Bachelor season 28 and fell in love over the course of the season, has been keeping Bachelor Nation updated on their relationship through social media after the show. Making it clear that the couple are happy despite the rumors that often make it seem like otherwise, Joey and Kelsey have been open about their relationship in good times and bad to remain authentic to Bachelor Nation viewers.

In a recent TikTok, Kelseyshared her take on the upcoming season of The Bachelor, revealing why she’s excited for the show to get started. “The feeling of a new season of The Bachelor coming out and now you can watch without cringing at your man making out with your friends," she typed over a clip of her lip-synching to a cover of "Hallelujah". Kelsey’s funny assertion may be true, but it’s also clear that she and Joey are aware that the pressure surrounding their relationship will likely fade with Grant Ellis’ new season of The Bachelor underway.

As Kelsey and Joey have moved through their time with The Bachelor franchise, there’s been serious backlash surrounding their relationship and how open they are with Bachelor Nation. While Joey and Kelsey do keep some things to themselves, the couple are open on social media about what they’re doing, where they’re going, and what’s next for them. As Joey and Kelsey get ready for the next season of The Bachelor, though, it’s clear they’re ready to move forward. With The Bachelor season 29 bringing Grant into the fold, Kelsey’s ready to spend some time with Joey away from the spotlight.

While Joey and Kelsey’s relationship has been something they’ve felt comfortable sharing, the backlash against them hasn’t been anything like what they’ve expected. Joey’s decision to take on Dancing With The Stars season 33, for example, wouldn’t have been so heavily criticized if Bachelor Nation weren’t watching Joey and Kelsey so closely. Throughout the time after The Bachelor season 28 finished airing, it’s been clear that Joey and Kelsey haven’t been interested in the way the media has treated them. The negativity from Bachelor Nation has been tough, so Grant being a bigger focus will be a positive.

Our Take On Kelsey’s Theory About Grant’s Upcoming Season

It’s Likely True That She & Joey Will Be Less Scrutinized

Although it’s not certain, it’s likely that Grant becoming The Bachelor and taking the spotlight for Bachelor Nation will draw some of the attention away from Joey and Kelsey, which will give them room to breathe. While Kelsey was sharing an interesting truth about watching the show without cringe now that it won’t be featuring her, she was also letting Bachelor Nation in on the truth about her relationship with Joey and their part in the franchise. As The Bachelor moves forward with a new lead, Joey and Kelsey may finally get the privacy they’ve been craving.

The Bachelor season 29 premieres Monday, January 27 at 8 p.m. EST on ABC.
