‘Bachelor’ Host Jesse Palmer Prepares To Be A First-Time Dad
Bachelor host Jesse Palmer and his wife, Emely Fardo, are just two months away from welcoming their first child. How is he preparing for fatherhood? Keep reading for all the details.
What Happened To Jesse Palmer’s Final Rose Pick From Bachelor Season 5?
Long before Jesse Palmer replaced Chris Harrison as host of the Bachelor Nation shows, he was part of the franchise himself. The former professional football player was the lead for Season 5 of The Bachelor back in 2004.
He made one of the most memorable blunders when he gave a rose to the wrong contestant. At the end of the season, he chose Jessica Bowlin as the winner, giving her a plane ticket to New York, where he was playing for the New York Giants.
It’s doubtful she ever used the ticket, as they broke up about a month after the season finale aired. Where is Bowlin now?
According to Distractify, she’s now Jessica Bowlin Rawi after marrying Omar Rawi in 2013. The outlet reports that she lives in California with her husband and two children.
As for Palmer, he started dating Emely Fardo in 2017 and got engaged in 2019. They originally planned to wed in France in 2020 but opted for a small ceremony in New York City instead of pushing back their wedding.
In August 2023, the couple announced they were expecting their first child together in early 2024.
Jesse Palmer Prepares To Be A First-Time Dad
Jesse Palmer and Fardo will welcome a daughter in January. The Bachelor host was a guest on Live With Kelly and Mark on Monday, November 20.
While there, he gave his thoughts on the Bachelor Nation franchise possibly expanding. But Kelly Ripa and Mark Consuelos were also interested in more personal matters.

They asked Palmer how he was preparing to become a first-time dad. He said that he’s been watching a lot of online videos about swaddling and diaper-changing.
Jesse Palmer couldn’t stop gushing over the impending bundle of joy. “I’m so excited,” he told the talk show hosts. He revealed that his daughter would be the first girl in the family, as his brothers only have sons. He joked that she already has everyone “wrapped around her finger” already.
The ESPN college football analyst revealed that they already have the baby’s nursery done, and his wife is in nesting mode.
There’s one part of parenthood Jesse Palmer isn’t ready for – the birds and the bees talk. During a recent episode of Golden Bachelor, he had a talk with Gerry Turner that had him wondering how he was going to tell his kids about where babies come from.
