Our Take On Kelsey & Joey Spending Christmas With Family

Joey Seems To Fit Right In With The Andersons

Joey always seems so comfortable around Kelsey’s family, which is a great sign that their engagement will lead to marriage. In pastBachelorfranchise show seasons, skeptical family members have torn relationships apart, but Mark welcomed Joey into his home during Kelsey’s hometown date with open arms. Kelsey’s mom, Denise, passed away due to breast cancer in 2018, so Mark has had the responsibility of helping Kelsey navigate her relationship with Joey. He and her siblings seem very supportive of them, which is a good sign that they’re a solid couple.

Kelsey and Joey are one ofBachelorNation’s strongest couples. This was their second Christmas together, after they got engaged on June 18, 2025, and they appear to be more in love than ever before.
