Rachel Lindsay Advises Grant Ellis on Prenuptial Agreements Ahead of His Bachelor Journey
- Rachel Lindsay advises 'Bachelor' Grant Ellis before his wedding.
- The advice comes amidst Grant Ellis finding his new wife during the show.
- Lindsay warns Ellis to 'lawyer up' before his marriage due to her own messy divorce.
Former Bachelorette star Rachel Lindsay has shared crucial advice with Grant Ellis, the newly announced Bachelor, urging him to consider a prenuptial agreement as he embarks on his quest for love. In a recent interview with TMZ, Lindsay emphasized the importance of protecting oneself in the unpredictable landscape of reality television romance, particularly if Ellis decides to propose during the show. Lindsay's insights stem from her own experiences during her tumultuous divorce from Bryan Abasolo, whom she married after her season of The Bachelorette in 2017. She revealed that she was ordered to pay $20,000 in legal fees to Abasolo, a situation she believes could have been mitigated with a prenup. Reflecting on her past decisions, Lindsay admitted that she and Abasolo were not aligned on the necessity of a prenuptial agreement at the time of their marriage. In her candid remarks on the Hidden Gems with Natasha Parker podcast, Lindsay noted the significant changes in her life and financial situation since her marriage. She stressed that individuals evolve over time, making it essential to safeguard one's interests in the event of a divorce. “I think every person should have a prenup because I could have never predicted that in 2024, I would be getting a divorce,” she stated. As Ellis prepares to take on the role of the second Black lead in The Bachelor franchise, Lindsay's advice serves as a reminder of the complexities that can arise in relationships formed under the public eye.
