Joey Graziadei and Jenn Tran dance together on Dancing With the Stars after he rejected her on The Bachelor

It’s happily-ever-after on the dance floor. Sorta.

In a moment of happenstance, The Bachelor franchise alums Joey Graziadei and Jenn Tran, who starred as the titular bachelor and bachelorette on 2024’s renditions of the dating show, ended up sharing a dance in the Dancing With the Stars ballroom.

The two were both members of Team Goofs on Disney Night’s team dance segment, dancing to “I 2 I” from A Goofy Movie. Graziadei was the only male celebrity in the group, and as such, he ended up doing a lift with Tran during the section of the dance only meant to feature the celebrity contestants.

However, Tran and Graziadei have a history. She was a contestant on his season of The Bachelor, ultimately finishing in fifth place, with Graziadei sending her home just prior to the hometown dates. Tran then went on to become the first Asian American bachelorette in the franchise’s history.

“Joey may not have given me a rose, but he’s giving me a lift up,” Tran quipped with good humor.

Throughout season 33, there has appeared to be nothing but well wishes and support between the two former paramours. Back before the season started, Graziadei spoke about Tran’s casting on a press line, saying “It’s amazing. I’m just going to support Jenn fully. I know a lot of things have come from all this, and I think she’s just really excited for her next opportunity, and I’m going to support her fully.”

The two have both remained strong contenders throughout this season of Dancing With the Stars, with Graziadei and partner Jenna Johnson consistently earning high scores and praise from the judges and Tran and partner Sasha Farber earning raves for their chemistry and lyricism. Both couples were safe at the end of Disney Night and will continue on in the competition for the show’s Halloween Nightmares Night.
