Who Does Joey Pick on The Bachelor 2024? Is He Engaged? Season 28 Winner

Who Does Joey Pick as The Bachelor 2024 Winner?

Who does Joey Pick as The Bachelor 2024 winner? Joey’s Bachelor 2024 winner is Kelsey Anderson, a 25-year-old Junior Project Manager from Leesville, Louisiana, according to Reality Steve. His runner-up was Daisy Kent, a 25-year-old Account Executive from Becker, Minnesota. 

Joey and Kelsey A. are engaged and still together after The Bachelor Season 28, according to Reality Steve. Joey gave his final rose to Daisy at the Final Rose Ceremony in The Bachelor Season 28 finale in Tulum, Mexico, and proposed to her, which she accepted and they got engaged.

Reality Steve confirmed that Joey picked Kelsey A. as his winner in February 2024. He originally reported that Daisy was Joey’s winner in January 2024, however, he later corrected himself when fans discovered that Joey and Kelsey A. were at what looked like the same house for what was believed to be a “Safe House Visit,” a term also known as a “Happy Couple Weekend” to describe a secret date set up by producers between the Bachelor and his winner before the finale airs. According to a Reddit thread by user @sandbetweenhertoes, TikToks that Joey and Kelsey A. posted showed them in houses with the exact same microwave, cabinets, and backyard, which fans believed was confirmation that they were on a “Happy Couple Weekend.”

According to Reality Steve, Daisy realizes that she wasn’t Joey’s winner during their last date on The Bachelor Season 28 and goes to Kelsey’s room to tell her essentially, “It’s not me, it’s you. I’m gonna tell him that tomorrow,” which was a first for Bachelor Nation. “Once the final 3 rose ceremony happens and it’s down to two people, those two never interact with each other, whether it’s Bachelor or Bachelorette season. They don’t want them chatting each other up and what not. So Daisy must’ve made a plea to producers (or producers thought it’d be a ‘first’ for a storyline) to let a girl who thinks she’s not getting picked to go talk to the other girl,” Reality Steve wrote. “And that’s what they did.”

Reality Steve described Daisy and Kelsey A.’s conversation as “supportive” and “straightforward.” At the Final Rose Ceremony, Daisy arrives first and tells Joey what she told Kelsey A. and they had a positive breakup. The scene after his breakup with Daisy was shown in the first two minutes of The Bachelor Season 28 premiere, which showed Joey taking off his jacket and talking to producers before Kelsey A. arrives to decompress what Daisy told him.

For Joey’s engagement, it’s almost certain the ring was designed by Neil Lane, a celebrity jeweler, who has created engagement rings for The Bachelor, The Bachelorette and Bachelor in Paradise since 2008. In a 2016 interview with Entertainment Weekly, former host Chris Harrison revealed that Bachelor Nation couples have to stay together for a certain amount of time, otherwise they have to return the free engagement ring to Neil Lane. “There’s some rule, after a certain number of years, you get to keep it anyway,” he said. “But after months… it goes back.”

Lane told StyleCaster in 2016 that he doesn’t know where the rings go, but that he designs them with the hope that the couple stays together. “I make rings hoping that people stay together forever, but after they get the ring, I don’t have a say in it, and what happens after that, I don’t know,” he said. “Where the ring goes, I have to say, I don’t really know. I just say it goes to ring heaven.”
