'The Bachelor' Season 28: Who is Rachel Nance? ICU Nurse of mixed heritage makes it to Joey Graziadei's Top 3
HONOLULU, HAWAII: Reality Steve, Bachelor Nation's own lord and savior, was already on the case with some deets—including Joey Graziadei's final four—while 'The Bachelor' Season 28 was filming in November. While Maria Georgas was apparently ousted at the final four-rose ceremony, Joey's three surviving contestants are Daisy Kent, Kelsey Anderson, and our very own Rachel Nance.
Rachel is a member of Season 28 of 'The Bachelor' and one of the front-runners. According to Steve, Rachel, Daisy, and Kelsey had success with the main men in their hometowns, propelling them to the top three of the competition.
Despite the fact that Rachel is from Honolulu, Hawaii, she appears to live in Olympia, Washington.
Nothing beats a Hawaiian Christmas, according to Rachel. Rachel is afraid of frogs.
Rachel's distinctive outfit as a kid was Bermuda shorts and feather earrings.
Rachel is extremely proud of her Hawaiian heritage and wishes to bond with Joey through her love of Hawaiian food and culture. She hails from a large, close-knit family and is really thrilled to start her own family.

Who are 'The Bachelor' Season 28 star Rachel Nance's parents?
Given that hometown dates are all about meeting the family and loved ones, it's a no-brainer that we should find out who Rachel's parents are. Rachel is the daughter of Hakim and Noela Nance.
Hakim works at DePuy Synthes Companies as an Orthopedic Trauma Consultant. Her father is a native of New Orleans, Louisiana.
Noela is the late Vincent Yanuaria Andres Sr and Lorie Lorenza's daughter. Vincent Sr was born to Anselmo and Cristina Andres in Bacarra, Ilocos Norte, Philippines. Vincent Sr heroically volunteered in the Guerilla Philippine Force during World War II and served in the artillery unit before being sent to Honolulu, Hawaii, in the United States.
Vincent Sr was patriotic and well-versed in current affairs as well as world history. Before retirement, he worked in the hotel industry.
He was a hardworking family man with a strong work ethic.
Nester Jane, Nellie Clifford Arnold, Margie Allen Alejandro, Vilorie Albert Valencia, and Vincent Jr LaVonne are Rachel's mother's other siblings. Rachel has only one sister, Amanda Nance. As a result, Rachel and her sister are of mixed ancestry.
Her father is of African-American descent, while her mother is of Filipino-American descent.
What does 'The Bachelor' Season 28 star Rachel Nance do for work?
Rachel studied nursing at the University of Maine at Fort Kent; therefore, she was likely to work as a nurse. However, as of this writing, her LinkedIn profile contains no information.
In 2020, she graduated from college. She played women's volleyball for the UMFMK Bengals as an outsider in college.
Rachel also attended Taft College. In 2017, she received an associate's degree in liberal arts and communications.
What is Rachel Nance looking for in 'The Bachelor'?
Wave "aloha" to the lovely Rachel! This ICU nurse has worked hard to attain her professional ambitions, but she is now looking for someone to share her life's journey with.
Rachel is seeking a partner who is honest, compassionate, and supportive, with whom she can establish a life. Rachel enjoys watching "Friends," reading Jane Austen books, and spending time with her family when she is not working at the hospital.
Rachel is perfect for a wife. Let's see if Joey agrees.
'The Bachelor' Season 28 will premiere on ABC on Monday, January 22, 2024, at 8 pm ET.
