Daisy Kent Shares Lengthy List of Reasons Why She Turned Down ‘The Bachelorette’ Offer

Bachelor Nation was ready to turn their roses into daisies with Daisy Kent as the next Bachelorette, but there was a list of reasons why she declined the role.

Daisy, 25, told host Nick Viall that she was very “honest” and “transparent” with production about her concerns over the role and decided to respectfully decline the offer “two weeks before” After the Final Rose. Daisy joined the cast and her love story with Joey Graziadei, who is now engaged to fiancée Kelsey Anderson, later that year and shared her health journey on the show. After Daisy said no to the gig, Bachelor Nation host Jesse Palmer and Bachelorette alum Charity Lawson announced Jenn Tran as the next lead during After the Final Rose.
