“The Bachelor” alum Lexi Young spoke exclusively to Us Weekly about her former co-star, Daisy Kent, and her new boyfriend, Thor Herbst. Young revealed that Kent is very happy in her new relationship, and the couple met in college at San Diego State University before reconnecting after Kent’s time on the reality show. Kent and Herbst have been traveling together and attending events with Bachelor Nation friends, but Kent has not yet publicly shared him on social media. During an appearance on a podcast, Kent mentioned that her relationship with Herbst has evolved since they first met, and she is happy with how things have turned out.
Young, who also appeared on “The Bachelor,” has recently put herself back in the dating pool. She shared that she is looking for the right person but has met some great individuals along the way. Despite her newfound exposure from reality TV, Young is trying to navigate the dating world and find someone with serious intentions. She also discussed her advocacy work for endometriosis awareness, which she revealed during her time on the show. Young has received positive feedback from women who have been encouraged to seek medical help for their endometriosis after hearing her story.
At the Endometriosis Foundation of America’s Blossom Ball, Young talked about the importance of raising awareness about endometriosis, a condition that affects one in ten women. She revealed that it took her ten years to get a diagnosis and emphasized the need for women to speak up about their health issues. Young’s openness about her endometriosis diagnosis has led to thousands of women reaching out to her and seeking medical help. She expressed gratitude for having the platform to spread awareness about the condition and help other women who may be struggling to get a diagnosis and proper treatment.
Despite her newfound advocacy work, Young is also focused on her personal life and the challenges of dating after being on a reality TV show. She acknowledged feeling unsure about people’s intentions and the difficulties of balancing a private life with public exposure. However, she remains positive about the opportunity to meet new people and potentially find the right partner. Young’s experience on “The Bachelor” has opened up new opportunities for her to connect with others and share her story, both in terms of her personal life and her advocacy work for endometriosis awareness.
Young’s story serves as an inspiration to other women struggling with similar health issues and the stigma surrounding them. Her openness about her diagnosis and her advocacy work have made a significant impact in raising awareness about endometriosis and encouraging women to seek help. Through her platform, Young continues to empower and support women who may be facing similar challenges in getting a diagnosis and treatment for their health conditions. Her journey from reality TV to advocacy work showcases the power of sharing personal stories and experiences to create positive change and support others in their struggles.
