Season 28 of The Bachelor is currently airing and fans, as always, can’t wait to know who will be the lucky lady who gets engaged to lead Joey Graziadei. The tennis pro, who was introduced on last season of The Bachelorette, has enchanted fans since the beginning, and now he has another chance at love.
In an interview with People Magazine, the lead confessed: “My biggest worry is just, truthfully, not making the right decision or finding the right person, or possibly just ending in a way that doesn’t end with my forever person. Truthfully, that’s a real fear of mine.”
However, by judging how the season is going, it seems like there are several women whom Joey has strong connections with. One of them is Daisy Kent, who got the first one-on-one of the Season. So, here’s what to know about her.
Who is The Bachelor contestant Daisy Kent?
Daisy Kent is 25 years old. She is an account executive from Becker, Minnesota. Despite being young, she told ABC that she is ready to “find the one,” inspired by her parents’ 30-plus-year marriage.
As per a CBS 8 interview, Daisy established the nonprofit Hear Your Heart in 2020. The organization is dedicated to assisting children with autoimmune disorders or hearing loss by providing medical aid, financial support for future education, and raising awareness about mental health for both children and their families.
What disease does Daisy Kent have?
During the second episode of the season, Joey had a one-on-one date night with Daisy, which included a helicopter ride and a musical festival. The pair had great chemistry, and Daisy confessed to Joey that she had a cochlear implant. She was diagnosed from Ménière disease when she was 17 and with Lyme disease at 21, which could have also contributed to her hearing loss.
According to the National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders, Ménière’s is a disorder of the inner ear that usually affects one ear. Common symptoms include dizziness, ringing in the ears, hearing loss, and a sensation of fullness or congestion in the affected ear.
Meanwhile, Lyme disease comes from tick bites and can give you symptoms like fever, headache, fatigue, and a specific rash. If not treated, it can affect joints, the heart, and the nervous system.
While she was worried about how he would react to the news, he acted with class and was impressed by her. “It takes a special type of person to be able to go through all these challenges in life and turn them into a positive,” he said.
What book did Daisy Kent write?
Apart from working on her non-profit organization, Kent wrote a children’s book titled “Daisy Doo: All The Books She Knew,” which follows a little girl who discovers her favorite sounds once again, thanks to a cochlear implant.
In a TikTok video, Kent explained that she loved to read the book to kids because it is important for them “to see these kinds of things (referring to her implant) and have conversations about it.”
Daisy Kent starred in a music video
Before gaining popularity on The Bachelor, Daisy appeared in a song by Abe$ titled “Sundown” in 2021. She also starred in the music video for the song, alongside the artist. Sadly, the video is now private.
