Who is ‘The Bachelor’ star Joey Graziadei
Joey is a tennis pro from Collegeville, Pennsylvania, who we originally saw in Season 20 of The Bachelorette, with Charity Lawson.
Joey is looking for a woman who is “outgoing” and “caring,” and loves having an outdoor adventure. Some of his hobbies include hiking and surfing, and “watching the sunset.” He’s also inspired by the love that his grandparents had for each other.
While he’s been through the process before, but on the receiving end, Joey told People that having to choose who to give a rose to “sucks.”
“It’s not fun to be that guy. The rose ceremonies are the hardest part, especially on night one, because you don’t even get the chance to talk to everyone. It’s not a fun position to be in,” he told the outlet. “There’s no way someone enjoys that part.”

Who are the three Canadian contestants on ‘The Bachelor’ Season 28
Teased as a “worldwide adventure,” that also extends to the women on The Bachelor Season 28, which includes three women from Canada.
Maria is a 29-year-old executive assistant from Kleinburg, Ont., who’s ready to move on from short flings and settle down. Apparently, a psychic reading told her that Joey could be her future husband. She “loves a good disposable camera photo shoot,” loves horror movies and “dreams” of eating sushi in Japan.

What happened in the first episode of ‘The Bachelor’ Season 28
While we’ve only seen the first episode, Joey seems to already have some strong feelings about a few of the women he met.
As we head to the mansion and we see each woman’s first impression on Joey, a couple of standouts are sisters, 28-year-old Lauren and 26-year-old Allison from Philadelphia, Penn. We’ll let the viewers decide if it’s a bit weird for sisters to try to find love with the same guy.

Taylor and Jess got into a bit of a spat. Taylor wasn’t a big fan of Jess telling the rest of the women about kissing Joey, and she also wasn’t pleased when Jess interrupted her conversation with the Bachelor.
