Daisy Kent was a popular contestant from Joey Graziadei’s season of The Bachelor. But some of her choices since her time on the reality show have turned some fans off. Now they’re accusing her of theft. Keep reading to find out what she allegedly stole.
Bachelor Runner-Up Living Her Best Life
Daisy Kent was a frontrunner for Joey Graziadei’s final rose. In fact, she made it through elimination after elimination to the final rose ceremony. Viewers praised Daisy and the other finalist, Kelsey Anderson, for bucking franchise tradition and riding to the ceremony together in the same car. Traditionally, the loser arrives first and is sent home so the other can get engaged while the sun is in the perfect position.
But Daisy continued to throw tradition aside. Instead of waiting for Joey Graziadei to dump her, she broke up with him. She told him that it was clear to her that he was going to choose Kelsey. She graciously stepped aside.
“The last couple days, I realized that, you know, you’re not my person and I know that you know I’m not. And as much as that hurts, I know you said you want the best for me, so I’m going to do what’s best for me and I’m going to go,” she said at the time.
She reconnected with a flame from college after leaving the show. While fans hoped to see her as the next Bachelorette or on Bachelor In Paradise, she left L.A. to move in with her boyfriend, Thor Herbst, in Las Vegas, Nevada.
And she was right about Joey Graziadei. He was going to choose Kelsey. The two are engaged and eyeing a 2027 wedding.
Daisy Kent: Reality Star, Influencer, Poet?
Daisy Kent had a social media following before she joined the ABC dating show. She became popular on TikTok for sharing stories about her hearing loss and living with a cochlear implant. She got the implant as a teenager after suffering from progressive hearing loss.
Since her time on the show, she’s gained more followers and became a social media influencer. She recently had a huge opportunity at the Grand Ole Opry in Nashville. She’s also featured in a commercial for the Daisy brand of sour cream.
According to some on the internet, Daisy Kent is also the author of a motivational quote that she said on the After The Final Rose special after breaking up with Joey.
She said, “If I can love the wrong person that much, imagine how much I can love the right person.”
The quote is often used on social media platforms and attributed to the Bachelor contestant. But she didn’t write it.
Fans Disgusted Over Her ‘Theft’
An annoyed fan took to social media to call out people who credit the quote to Daisy Kent. According to them, the quote has been used on social media platforms Tumblr and Pinterest for a decade.
One fan agreed that the quote has been around for a while. They wrote, “I was scribbling this in my diary while Daisy was learning the ABCs.”
Another fan took major issue with the quote being credited to Daisy. “If I were the person who had actually created this quote over a decade ago, I would sue,” they said.
While the original author of the quote probably won’t take such drastic action, the majority of Bachelor fans agreed it was wrong to attribute the quote to Daisy Kent.
