Full-Circle Moment! Bachelor Nation’s Nicole Lopez-Alvar Interviews Former Bachelor Lorenzo Borghese
From one Bachelor Nation star to another!
Bachelor Nation fans first met Nicole Lopez-Alvar on Season 23 of “The Bachelor,” and she returned to our screens for Season 6 of “Bachelor in Paradise.”
Nicole was introduced to fans as a social media manager and journalist, and she is still thriving at her career in her hometown of Miami, Florida.
This week, Nicole revealed a full-circle moment where she got to interview former Bachelor Lorenzo Borghese for the Miami New Times, where she is now the outlet’s food editor.
In the article written by Nicole, she says, “What happens when a former star of Bachelor Nation interviews another former star of Bachelor Nation? You get this ‘hoppy’ story about South Beach’s newest taproom.”
In the piece, Nicole interviews Lorenzo about his latest project — opening a brand-new taproom in South Beach.
The taproom opened this week and will feature South Beach Brewing Company beer, a brand Lorenzo founded in 2017.
During their conversation, Lorenzo looked back on his time on “The Bachelor” and how it led him to where he is today.
And when it comes to promoting his company on social media, Lorenzo told Nicole, “When I was filming ‘The Bachelor’ in the late 2000s, I couldn’t even get on Facebook at the time, so I missed out on social media completely.”
The brew he’s created is what he calls a “brunch beer,” so even if you aren’t the biggest beer fan, you might like his fruity, light beverage.
Nicole took to her Stories and wrote, “I’m not a beer lover but Lorenzo invented a ‘brunch beer’ that’s made with real Florida oranges and electrolytes. It’s a fruity, brunchy dream if you’re not into craft beer.”
How exciting!
We’ll have to give it a try next time we’re in the Miami area, but for now, we just love seeing these two Bachelor Nation stars come together for such a fun interview.
