Where Are 'Bachelor' Contestants Now? We Check In With 12 Of Our Favorite 'Bachelor' Women

Another season of ABC's The Bachelor, another crew of bodacious ladies looking to find love. And while we can all spend time bickering about whether Jade or Britt have what it takes to make it to the final rose, it's all just a little premature at this point. Instead, lets check in with our favorite Bachelor contestants of the past: where are the lovely ladies of the Bachelor-verse now?

Emily Maynard

This Southern beauty came to her season on The Bachelorette with one lady on her mind: Her daughter, Ricki. Maynard married husband Tyler Johnson in 2014, and they’re expecting a child later this year.

Michelle Money

Model, stylist, and actress Money is a staple for The Bachelor franchise: She’s appeared on Bachelor Pad, Bachelor Pad 2, and Bachelor in Paradise. Money finds love… on every show, but what’s notable is her very large following on social media. She’s a real influencer in The Bachelor community.

Courtney Robertson

Robertson and Season 16 Bachelor Ben Flajnik seemed like a perfect match, but the couple broke up soon after the show’s finale. Last year, Robertson wrote a tell-all book last year about her experience on The Bachelor, dubbed I Didn’t Come Here to Make Friends.

Melissa Rycroft

Rycroft is the reason that The Bachelor needs a “no-backsies” rule: Jason Mesnick chose her as his love on the finale of his season of The Bachelor, only to say, “just kidding, nevermind” in the same episode and choose Molly Malaney instead. Awk-ward. However, things are looking pretty bright for Rycroft: she has two kids with hunky husband Tye Strickland.

Catherine Giudici

Once a contestant on The Bachelor but never a Bachelorette, Giudici found her prince, Sean Lowe, marrying him early in 2014. A lot was made of their decision to wait until marriage to have sex, but hey, if they’re happy, I’m happy.

Ali Fedotowsky

We were all introduced to Fedotowsky on The Bachelor: On The Wings Of Love (aka Jake Pavelka’s season), but she nabbed her own season of The Bachelorette, choosing Roberto Martinez as her beau. Martinez and Fedotowsky soon split, but it’s not all bad: She’s now a correspondent on the E! Network.

Andi Dorfman

The most recent of the Bachelorettes, Dorfman left a job as an Assistant District Attorney in Atlanta, Georgia, to find love with Juan-Pablo Galavis. It seemed as though she found it on her own season of the show with Josh Murray, but news just broke of the pair’s split! Dorfman is back on the market.

Jen Schefft

Best known for her engagement to Andrew Firestone on Season 3 of The Bachelor and her own stint on The Bachelorette, Schefft married trader Joe Waterman in 2009. They have two beautiful babies together.

Desiree Hartsock

Hartsock chose Chris Siegfried as her mate during her 2013 season of The Bachelorette, and guess what — the two are still together! The pair lives together in Seattle and are set to wed this year.

Clare Crawley

A contestant on the much-maligned Juan Pablo Galavis season of The Bachelor (during which she wasn’t allowed to speak Spanish to her Spanish-speaking lover), Crawley went on to appear on Bachelor in Paradise. Word’s out on if she’s found love yet, though.

Jillian Harris

Both a contestant on The Bachelor and The Bachelorette, Canadian babe (the show’s first!) Harris parlayed her heartbreak into an exciting career in hosting and interior design. To date, Harris has made appearances on Extreme Makeover: Home Edition and Love It Or List It Vancouver, among others.

Trista (Rehn) Sutter

The runner-up on the inaugural season of The Bachelor, Sutter became the first bachelorette, choosing hunky fireman Ryan Sutter as her love. Today, the pair have been married for a decade and are raising two adorable children in Colorado. Time really does fly when you’re having fun.
