Joey Graziadei Reveals Kelsey Anderson Visited Him in a Dream and How It Was Sign She Was ‘The One’
The voodoo doll worked!
Bachelor Nation fans saw Joey Graziadei and Kelsey Anderson get engaged on Season 28 of “The Bachelor” and the two couldn’t be more in love.
Now, the newly engaged couple stopped by the “Bachelor Happy Hour” podcast where they opened up about their first night together.
Joey discusses the moment Kelsey came out of the limo on night one, saying, “I was blown away. The limo entrances are always at different times and she was actually the last one out of the limo… So after 32 women, I was getting to the point where I was kind of ready to go inside and give this toast and ready to get this thing going.”
He went on, sharing, “But she walked out and I was like, ‘Holy sh*t, this is amazing. This was worth it for 32 because she is the last one.’ I was really blown away right away. We always joke about our first conversation on night one, she was so nervous. I think she was kind of upset I had kissed other women and had heard it through the house.”
And while Joey was really excited about Kelsey, Kelsey was a bit more reserved on night one.
She said, “I wasn’t upset that you were kissing other women, but I was like, you’re not going to kiss me on night one. I was like this boy better not come in for a kiss because he’s going to kiss ten girls.”
Co-host Joe Amabile said it’s smart to play a little hard to get. Joey agreed, saying, “She did well.”
Joey also shared a special story from after night one and how it was a sign Kelsey could be the one for him.
He explained, “One of the producers brought it up that you’re going to have an idea of everyone after night one and then you’re going to go to bed and wake up and someone is going to be on your mind. You’re going to have a dream about her or there’s going to be someone you aren’t going to be able to get out of your head… I went to bed and I woke up the next morning having had a full on dream about her.”
Joey continued on, saying, “She was the only person on my mind when I woke up the next day and I told everyone the next day that this Kelsey girl is on my mind and I think the voodoo doll worked. That was the weirdest thing and I couldn’t wait for our date because she was the one that I couldn’t get out of my head… I didn’t think I was going to dream about anybody but she was the one I dreamed about.”
How sweet!
