Kelsey Anderson Shares Sweet Childhood Photos for ‘The Golden Bachelorette’ Premiere: ‘I Love You So Much Dad’
So sweet!
Bachelor Nation met Kelsey Anderson’s dad, Mark, and the rest of her family during her Hometown date on Season 28 of “The Bachelor.”
Kelsey has been open about how her father cared for her late mother before she passed away and after seeing him on-screen, fans instantly fell in love with him.
Bachelor Nation fans quickly called for Kelsey’s dad to be cast on “The Golden Bachelorette” to hopefully find love the way his daughter did with Joey Graziadei.
Now, Mark has officially started his search for love with Golden Bachelorette Joan Vassos, and Kelsey took to Instagram to cheer him on ahead of the premiere.
Alongside a collection of childhood photos, recent pictures, and one photo of her parents when they were younger, Kelsey wrote, “I am SO excited to watch my dad on The Golden Bachelorette premiere TONIGHT!”
She went on to say, “Can’t wait for y’all to see more of the amazing man that raised me!!! I love you so much Dad.”
Kelsey also added the song “Yours” by Post Malone to her post for an extra sentimental touch.
Fans loved the supportive post and fellow Bachelor Nation stars commented on their excitement for Mark’s new journey.
Charity Lawson wrote, “Baby Kelsey and sweet Mr. Mark! we can’t wait to see!”
Susie Evans chimed in, “Cannot wait!”
And Maria Georgas added her feelings with two emojis, “🥹🌹”
The Bachelor Nation fan favorite has been very supportive of her dad throughout this journey, and even joined him on the first night to surprise Joan.
Kelsey also gathered Jason Tartick, Tanner Courtad, Justin Glaze, and her fiancé Joey to watch the premiere with her and cheer on her dad. She captioned her Instagram Story, “My emotional support group for tonight.”
We love all the love for Mark and all the Golden guys appearing on Joan’s season and can’t get enough of this father-daughter duo being so supportive of one another.
We can’t wait to watch how all the Golden guys’ journeys unfold on “The Golden Bachelorette”!
