Trista Sutter Shares Heartfelt Message to Kaitlyn Bristowe & Andi Dorfman
Trista Sutter is known as the "Fairy Godmother" of the "Bachelorette" franchise, and she loves supporting the women who followed in her iconic footsteps.
Bachelorettes have gone on to create their own businesses and thrive in their respective careers, and Trista couldn’t be prouder. She shared that love in an Instagram post earlier in the week when she posted a selfie alongside Andi Dorfman and Kaitlyn Bristowe.
She wrote in the caption, "Sandwiched between two badass goal-achievers who are crushing life...and as someone humbly bestowed with the title of Fairy Godmother 🌹, I am so proud!! And they’re just 2 of the gems in the Bachelorette girl gang...ALL making this OG smile from ear to ear."

Trista gave a shout-out to Kaitlyn’s recent achievement on "Dancing with the Stars" in which she scored perfect 10s across the board. Plus, Andi is also working on a major project of her own that she’s been keeping under wraps for now.
In July, the Season 1 Bachelorette joined Rachel Lindsay and Becca Kufrin on "Bachelor Happy Hour" and opened up about why she feels so "protective" of her successors.
She shared, "The show is part of me. It’s my history. It’s the reason that I have my family."
Trista continued, "I definitely get offended, and a lot of the times, I try to be real and speak my mind, but at the same time, I feel like all of you are my little babies. I’m protective not only over the show and treating the show right and being invested and being there for truly the right reasons — for the love."
Trista explained she will proudly "take ownership" of being known as the "Fairy Godmother."
She expressed, "I love this part of my story and who I am."
