Kelsey Anderson Shuts Down Rumors
Joey Graziadei is competing on Season 33 of Dancing With The Stars. That requires him to get up close and personal with his pro partner, Jenna Johnson. But some viewers think Joey and Jenna are getting a little too close for comfort. They’ve been warning Joey’s fiance, Kelsey Anderson, to keep a close eye on Jenna.
Kelsey got sick of the constant comments on her social media posts. She posted a video to remind people that she met Joey while he was dating 30+ other women. So, him dancing with Jenna, who is married with a baby, isn’t a threat to her at all.
Joey Graziadei Made One DWTS Request To Protect Fiance
Joey Graziadei was a guest on the Almost Famous podcast this week. He addressed all the chatter about his connection with his DWTS partner. The Bachelor star revealed that he expected some chatter and had one request before joining the ABC show.
He requested to be paired with someone who was married and in a healthy relationship. “I wanted to be in a situation where I was comfortable that I didn’t have to worry about a lot of this noise. So, I asked when I got on the show to be paired with someone that was in a successful and healthy relationship.”
Joey added that he made sure Kelsey was okay with him joining DWTS. “I think it’s understandable that people are paying attention to my relationship always, and it was something that Kelsey and I talked about. I made sure before doing this that she was comfortable with putting that into the world again.”
Bachelor Nation Fans Praise Him
Joey Graziadei is the most popular Bachelor in a long time. Fans adore his thoughtfulness and wholesome behavior. Bachelor Nation fans took to Reddit to react to Joey’s request before joining the ABC dance show.
- “This just seems like a guy who cares and wanted to lessen any potential noise that could be annoying or frustrating for him and Kelsey so good for him.”
- “I don’t see an issue with this. Of course anyone in any relationship can cheat . I think he meant he preferred to be paired with someone who also had a partner so there would be weird rumors.”
- “My interpretation of the “noise” he is referring to is people trying to ship him and his dance partner and spreading ugly rumors about them having an affair or being romantically interested in each other.”
- “Honestly, how refreshing. It shows that Joeys priority is Kelsey and he doesn’t want her to deal with the giant DWTS fanbase creating rumors about his dance partnership being more than it is. And he was right about that.”
- “He’s wonderful and so rare in this franchise.”
- “He seems like a thoughtful partner. In a franchise full of unserious and disgusting men he’s refreshing.”
- “This was a smart and valid request from Joey. Other couples have said doing dwts really strained their relationship. I think Chris Soules was one that the show hurt and others have said how it is difficult.”
