The Bachelor’s Lexi Young Thanks Joey for ‘Setting the Bar High’ After She Dumps Him and Leaves Show

Even though Lexi Young dumped Joey Graziadei and left ‘The Bachelor,’ she still gave him a shoutout after her exit and thanked him for showing her ‘kind love.’

“Thank you to Joey for showing me that a safe, non-judgmental, and kind love exists and is possible, and for setting the bar so high for my next relationship,” Lexi, 30, wrote on Instagram after the episode aired. “Every message I receive from a girl who has endo symptoms, an invisible illness, chronic pain, or infertility that I have been able to touch and help in even the smallest ways has made everything worth it.” In addition to Lexi sending herself home, this week’s episode of The Bachelor also featured Joey eliminating Jess Edwards, Lea Cayanan and Katelyn DeBacker.
