The Bachelor Season 25: The Under-The-Radar-Ladies: Part two
#5: Kristin, 27
Hometown: Virginia Beach, Virginia
Profession: Attorney
She reminds me of Rachel Lindsay Abasolo, who was also an attorney coming from Season 21 (Nick Viall) of The Bachelor. She seems very driven and dedicated to what she does, and much like Rachel was in the house, I think Kristin has the potential to make it far with little to no blood and drama on her hands (we can only hope so).
#6: MJ, 23
Hometown: Hudson, Ohio
Profession: Hair Stylist
Her bio states that she tends to (try) see the beauty in life in just about anything and everything that she does (to me, that makes me think she could be a little shy and timid at first, but I could be totally wrong here). Also, MJ is ready to settle down with the right man for her. Could it be Matt!?
#7: Rachael, 24
Hometown: Cumming, Georgia
Profession: Graphic Designer
Upon looking at her picture and without even looking at and reading her bio, I could tell that she was a southern belle. I hope her sweet personality carries her far, and that she doesn’t go too far under the radar because she’s super cute. And just like her bio says, all she wants is someone to be there for her in the toughest things like throws her way, as she hopes to be the same for someone someday in the near, near future (listen up, Matt James).
#8: Sydney, 28
Hometown: Nashville, Tennessee
Profession: Marketing Specialist
Her bio states that while she may not be your typical southern belle (whatever that seems to mean), she’s still that quintessential romantic and hope to find a man to woo her heart right into place. She’s very opinionated though, so she may be moving into the crazies category early on. Uhoh…
