MIAMI, FLORIDA: 'The Bachelor' alum Juan Pablo's daughter Camila Galavis would soon make her singing debut by auditioning in 'American Idol' Season 22. Camila is 15 years old and was born on February 14, 2009, to her parents Juan and his former girlfriend, Venezuelan actress Carla Rodríguez.

The aspiring singer resides in Florida and appears to have a strong bond with both of her parents. Juan and Carla never got married but continued their amicable co-parenting, Camila, since their split in 2010. Juan and Camila often flaunt their father-daughter relationship on social media.

Camila often jams with her father in the car on her favorite songs including, 'For the rest of your life'.

She followed in the footsteps of her father as Juan previously worked with recording artist Daniel Morales aka Danny Moon in 2016. The former reality television star found success after Daniel's song 'Me Rehúso' became a massive hit.

Camila recently celebrated her 15th birthday and her dad paid a sweet tribute. Juan shared a series of throwback photos and videos and wrote on Instagram, "15 years have flown by my Chiquiturri @camila_galavis you've already GROWN and I didn't even COUNT. I LOVE you with all my being and you are and ALWAYS will be the one in the LAST video... 'My Favorite Person.'"

When was Juan Pablo Galavis on 'The Bachelor'?

Juan Pablo Galavis appeared on 'The Bachelor' Season 18 in 2014. At the time, Juan's daughter Camila Galavis was just four years old. He was previously given a shot to love on 'The Bachelorette' Season 9 in 2013.

After he was eliminated by Desiree Hartsock during week six, Juan tried his luck in another ABC show.

Juan awarded his final rose to Nikki Ferrell but didn't propose to her because he wasn't '100 percent' sure he was ready for an engagement.
