It’s that time again, Bachelor Nation! The Bachelor Season 27 is right around the corner, with Zach Shallcross as the leading man. Even though he didn’t find love as a contestant on The Bachelorette, he is now getting another chance to find love in his season.
Zach will meet thirty single women on his journey to find true love. He already met five contestants during the After the Final Rose show, which concluded Rachel Recchia’s and Gabby Windey’s season of The Bachelorette. With that in mind, let’s get to know the women on Zach’s season of The Bachelor, starting with Christina Mandrell.
Christina Mandrell Age
Christina is 27 years old, only a year older than The Bachelor. She hails from Hendersonville, Tennessee. Christina is seeking a fairytale ending to her love story after recently going through a divorce. She also brings along her five-year-old daughter, Blakely, who she lives to make happy. Christina stays active, listing CrossFit as her favorite sport in her bio.
She is looking for a partner with whom she can have unconditional trust and is willing to do whatever life throws at them, like Hulu dancing, which Christina has always wanted to learn. Zach got his first look at Christina during the After the Final Rose show to conclude The Bachelorette Season 19. Although she didn’t win America’s vote for the first impression rose, Christina already has a leg up on the competition.
Christina Mandrell Instagram
Some may see divorce and daughter and start to paint a picture of Christina. Well, they would be wrong. This fun-loving The Bachelor contestant juggles taking care of her daughter while caring for herself. She has 43 thousand followers on Instagram, where she posts about her lifestyle habits, family, and modeling career. She often posts funny videos about co-parenting, which she seems to be doing successfully with her ex-husband and his new girlfriend.
Fun fact, Christina is the niece of country music singer Barbara Mandrell mostly known for her song “I Was Country When Country Wasn’t Cool.” Christina has some ties back to this with her posts on Instagram. This past June, she posted a picture in a music studio with the caption, “Big things coming your way.” She also posted a clip of her appearance in the music video for Cole Swindell’s “She Had Me At Heads Carolina.” But of course, the cutest photos on her page of that with her daughter Blakely. Here is one below celebrating her school achievements.
