The Bachelor: Indicators That Joey Graziadei and Kelsey Anderson Are Not Prepared for Parenthood (Their New Living Situation Reveals All)

The Bachelor Season 28 contestants, Joey Graziadei and Kelsey Anderson, are envisioning a future as parents, but they have differing perspectives on when to start their family. At 28, Joey and 26-year-old Kelsey acknowledge that they are still young and are not yet ready to take on the responsibilities of parenthood. Although they got engaged during the finale of the show, their immediate focus is on nurturing their relationship and establishing their careers rather than parenting.

Kelsey recently opened up about their family planning discussions during an appearance on the Bachelor Happy Hour: Golden Hour podcast, hosted by Kathy Swarts and Susan Noles from The Golden Bachelor Season 1. She expressed that both she and Joey have the desire for children, but they differ significantly on the number. Kelsey dreams of a large family and even hopes to adopt at least one child, while Joey envisions having two or three children at most. Clearly, a compromise will be necessary for their future.

Wedding Date Yet to Be Determined

Since their engagement during the finale of Season 28, Joey and Kelsey have found themselves increasingly busy, balancing their burgeoning careers as lifestyle influencers. Recently, Joey took on the exciting challenge of competing in Dancing With The Stars Season 33. After securing the Len Goodman Mirrorball Trophy with his dance partner, Jenna Johnson, his schedule has become even more hectic, as he’ll soon be touring with the DWTS live show. With such packed agendas, planning a wedding—as well as adding children—seems to be on the back burner.

Their City Choice is Not Ideal for Raising Kids

When Joey joined DWTS, he and Kelsey transitioned to Los Angeles, the show’s live filming location. After the competition, they chose to remain in this vibrant city for the foreseeable future. However, Los Angeles, while bustling and dynamic, is not regarded as one of the most family-friendly places for raising children.

At present, The Bachelor stars Joey and Kelsey are reveling in their youth and cherished time together. Coming from large families, it is understandable that they desire a significant family of their own. Hopefully, they can reach a mutual understanding regarding their family size and eventually embark on the journey of parenthood. It would be delightful to watch their family grow over the years.
