In the premiere episode of Joey Graziadei's The Bachelor season, 25-year-old Jenn Tran appears — not driving a limo, but driving a go-kart to the Bachelor mansion. "I want you to know that every day with me is going to be an adventure," she told Joy. “We’ll always have fun.”
True to her word, the couple ended up going surfing for a one-on-one date on the February 5 episode of The Bachelor , as shown in the trailer for week three.
"When I'm with Jenn, there's something about her that makes me feel really, really giddy," Joy said in the video.
This date bodes well for Jenn's Bachelor journey, which means now is the perfect time to learn more about the Miami contestant.
Bachelor's vacation
Jenn's go-kart arrival might make you think she's a racer like Arie Luyendyk Jr., but it turns out she might just be a Mario Kart enthusiast, writing on Instagram that she'll "run to the end of the rainbow road" For Joey.
What is Jenn’s actual job? She is studying to become a physician assistant and has shared her experiences, including her first scrub surgery, on social media. She also explained how she was able to take a break from school to pursue her Bachelor's program.
“The final deciding factor in putting my career on hold was Joey,” Jenn said on TikTok. She clarified that she was definitely not dropping out, just retaking the two missed rotations later.
In addition to posting about her career, Jenn recently shared that she is the new adoptive mother of a cat named Peter Parker. So she's been keeping busy since filming her solo journey!
Addressing the “elephant in the room”
Recently, Jenn discussed the "elephant in the room," seemingly referring to The Bachelor Instagram reportedly tagging Jenn's photos as photos of her Season 28 castmate Lea Cayanan.
"I'm always confused by different Asian women," Jen said in the video, adding that she was "disappointed but not surprised."
"If we take the time to really look, understand, watch, get to know each other, it won't be hard not to confuse me with someone else," she said. "The problem right now isn't that you can't tell the difference between me and different Asian people, it's that you don't care." (Lea also addressed this mistake in her own video.)
Jen’s Bachelor spoilers say…
Jenn and Joey formed a strong bond early on in their Bachelor journey. But will it stick? There are reports of Joey's end. But of course, spoilers ahead!
According to Bachelor Nation blogger and podcaster Reality Steve, Jenn went a long way during Joey's season and traveled to several international destinations as Joey narrowed down his pool of women. However, she was reportedly eliminated before her hometown competition, Reality Steve writes.
