Catherine Giudici Lowe Celebrates Lesley Murphy's Birthday with Cute Throwbacks
"The Bachelor" and "The Bachelorette" create more than just romantic relationships. Lifelong friendships are forged between the men and women on the show despite vying for the same person’s affection.
Catherine Giudici Lowe and Lesley Murphy are a perfect example of this phenomenon.
They met on Season 17 of "The Bachelor," and despite Lesley and Sean marking a Guinness World Record for longest on-screen kiss and Catherine ending up with the Bachelor, they’re still best friends.
Catherine celebrated Lesley’s birthday from afar Wednesday evening by posting several throwbacks on her Instagram Story from their time together on the show. She shared pictures from their time in tropical St. Croix to their first stop in Montana. Catherine added a picture from the trip to Alberta, Canada, and wrote, "Love you to the moon and back! Crazy thankful for your friendship."
She added, "To anyone thinking the show doesn't work - I loved this lady before I loved Sean Lowe."

There you have it!
Lesley was a bridesmaid in Catherine and Sean’s wedding, and perhaps it will all come full circle, because Lesley is in the planning process for her own nuptials.
