4. Jacqueline Trumbull

Admittedly, Bachelor contestant Jacqueline Trumbull hasn’t  received a ton of fanfare. Trust me, though, she’s impossible not to love.

Jacqueline first came on the scene during Arie Luyendyk’s season of The Bachelor. She was immediately likeable, coming off as incredibly genuine. Think of her as the Grocery Store Joe of lady contestants: she seemed very honest and very sweet, but ended up departing from the show before the season lead realized what they were really missing out on.

Jacqueline was a serious scholar working toward getting her PhD. She ultimately left the show because Arie couldn’t match her lifestyle. Our girl knew what her priorities were and defended them, even if that meant that her chances for televised love were cut short. It was incredibly easy to admire her attitude and Jacqueline quickly became known as a sort of reality feminist icon.

Luckily for us, we got to see a bit more of Jacqueline when she appeared on Bachelor in Paradise. Unfortunately, she didn’t find love there either. However, she did end up dating fellow series alum Jordan Mauger for a brief time, but things didn’t pan out in the end.

Ah, Jacqueline. You were too pure for any Bachelor man to steal you up!

These days, it’s easy to keep up with our girl crush online. Jacqueline has been known to hit up Reddit and she has a very active Twitter account. And, yes, she still come off looking like one of the most intelligent babes to ever walk the mansion halls.
