Barbara Alyn Woods Celebrates Joey’s DWTS Win Amid Mark Anderson Rumor
Barbara Alyn Woods is popping the champagne for Joey Graziadei after the former Bachelor won the Len Goodman Mirrorball Trophy on Dancing With the Stars.
“CONGRATS @joeygraziadei,” Woods, 62, wrote via her Instagram Story on Tuesday, November 26, alongside a clip of the moment Graziadei, 29, and his partner, Jenna Johnson, were crowned the champions of season 33.
In Woods’ video, shrieks could be heard in the background. Woods tagged her three children, who were seen watching the results with their jaws hanging open. (Woods shares daughters Alyvia, Natalie and Emily with her ex-husband, John Lind.)
The One Tree Hill alum’s public celebration for Graziadei comes one month after she sparked romance rumors with Mark Anderson, the dad of his fiancée, Kelsey Anderson. (Graziadei popped the question to Kelsey, 26, during The Bachelor season 28 finale, which aired earlier this year.)
In October, Woods dressed up as Cinderella while The Golden Bachelorette alum rocked a Prince Charming costume as the pair celebrated Halloween. “When Cinderella and Prince Charming have a baby,” Woods captioned the Instagram post, referring to daughter Natalie, who was dressed as Grogu from The Mandalorian.
The following month, Woods shared a sweet TikTok video of her and Mark, 57, dancing together in front of a Christmas tree. In the clip, Mark smiled at the camera as Woods set up an angle to film the dance. The twosome performed a routine in sync, leaning into each other before ending the dance with an embrace.
Woods captioned the video, “IN GOOD COMPANY.” Kelsey took to the comments section to gush over the clip, writing, “AWE.”
After Bachelor Nation fell in love with Mark during Kelsey’s stint on The Bachelor, he went on to vie for the affections of Joan Vassos on The Golden Bachelorette season 1. While Mark did not find The One in Vassos, fans have been hoping he could be crowned the next lead of the franchise. (Vassos ultimately accepted a proposal from Chock Chapple.)
Kelsey, for her part, is on board with Mark pursuing the opportunity. “If that’s what he wants to do, I would fully support him,” she exclusively told Us Weekly in October. “I think that my dad has grown so much through this journey of The Golden Bachelorette.”
Kelsey said she would “100 percent be excited” if Mark took on the gig. (Kelsey’s mom, Denise, died in 2018 following a battle with breast cancer.)
“I think that he grew a lot from it and I’m just really proud of him,” Kelsey told Us. “I’m also really thankful for Joan in helping my dad through all of this.”
