Joey Graziadei and Kelsey Anderson’s behavior since finding love on The Bachelor hasn’t gone unnoticed. Keep reading to find out why the reality TV stars are facing serious backlash.
Bachelor Couple Under Scrutiny Since Engagement
Even before they announced their engagement, Bachelor Nation fans had all eyes on Kelsey Anderson and Joey Graziadei’s social media. That’s how fans discovered that blogger Reality Steve’s initial spoiler that Joey chose Daisy Kent was incorrect.
Joey and Kelsey inadvertently spoiled Season 28 by posting separate videos from the same house. Eagle-eyed fans spotted similarities in the background features in the video and put it together that Joey and Kelsey were the ones engaged.
The online speculation was confirmed in late March when the season finale aired. Millions of viewers watched Joey propose to Kelsey. Now, thousands of social media eyes continue to watch the couple’s every move.
Joey Graziadei & Kelsey Anderson Face Backlash For Behavior
Some of Joey and Kelsey’s social media activity has sparked rumors that the relationship is doomed. But there’s another issue fans have with the couple’s behavior.
The newly engaged couple has spent the last few months vacationing or attending huge events like the Stagecoach Festival in April and the CMA Fest last month. They’ve vacationed in locations such as Hawaii, Italy, and, most recently, Saint Martin.
Kelsey took to Instagram to share photos of a trip she took with Joey to Nashville in late June. The post sparked rumors that the couple were already married, but another issue came up in the comments.
How do they afford all their vacations? One follower wrote, “Serious question… do bachelor/bachelorette “winners” have jobs? All I see are pics of Joey and Kelsey on all of these trips. Same with previous couples and even a lot of the more famous non-winning contestants (hate the term “win”).”
Another wrote, “Kelsey do you still work? Genuine question no shade.”
The questions came after Joey and Kelsey appeared on Jason Tartick’s podcast about money. Joey confessed to living with Kelsey and her roommates. She admitted that she relies on her fiance for money. Neither of them has returned to the jobs they had before the show.
How Can They Afford Jetsetting Lifestyle?
Despite what he said on the podcast, Joey Graziadei recently clarified that he’s not broke. So, how do they afford their extravagant lifestyle?
They haven’t explicitly said, but several of Joey and Kelsey’s social media content is paid promotions, including a recent collab with Amazon for Prime Day. It seems the couple has leaned into being social media influencers, at least for now.
What do you think about fans constantly asking Joey and Kelsey if they work? Is the question rude or justified? Sound off in the comments.
