‘The Bachelor’ Alum Daisy Kent and Boyfriend Thor Herbst’s Relationship Timeline

Daisy Kent may not have found The One in Joey Graziadei , but she handed out her final rose to boyfriend Thor Herbst .

Kent and Herbst initially began dating after meeting at San Diego State University four years before her stint on The Bachelor . While their romance didn’t work out the first time around, the pair reconnected after she exited season 28 of the ABC reality show, which aired in 2024.

Us Weekly broke the news in April 2024 that Kent and Herbst were dating, with a source exclusively sharing that the twosome had “been traveling all over recently,” including a stop in Indio, California, for Stagecoach.

“It wasn’t until after the show that we decided to try to give it a go,” Kent explained on a May 2024 episode of the “Scrubbing In” podcast. “And we’re giving it a go and it’s going good.”

Bachelor Nation met Daisy when she vied for the affections of Joey during season 28 of The Bachelor . Daisy ultimately self-eliminated, and Joey popped the question to Kelsey Anderson .

But if you ever feel uncomfortable, just say that’s between me and him,’” she said during the May 2024 episode of the “Scrubbing In” podcast. “So he’s very supportive of what I want to do and all of this too, but he never ever thought this would happen.”
