The Bachelorette Season 2: Meredith Phillips

After being sent home early on The Bachelor Season 4 by Bob Guiney, Meredith was selected to be the lead on The Bachelorette Season 2. The then 30-year-old makeup artist had 25 contestants lined up waiting to meet her. In seven short weeks, Meredith chose Ian McKee, the 29-year-old equity research salesman from New York City. The two were engaged at the end of the show but broke it off in 2005.

In between relationships Meredith resumed her passion for cooking and authored a cookbook, The Date Night Cookbook. Six years after calling it off with Ian Meredith married her high school sweetheart Michael Brody. She has a small catalog of photos on Instagram. What we can tell is that she loves to cook and loves her dog, Marion. Since her time on The Bachelorette, Meredith has seemed to slip out of the spotlight.
