What Happened to John Henry on ‘The Bachelorette’?
John didn’t have too much camera time while getting to know Charity in the Bachelor mansion and he was sent home during week 2.
After his elimination, John admitted he kept his first and only rose he was offered during the season. Since he didn’t form a bond with Charity, John’s favorite part about being on the show was “meeting the guys.”
“I was expecting only to be a couple that I would be cool with. But I was totally blown away by the quality of men brought on the show,” he told Bachelor Insider in July 2023. “Relationships that will last the rest of my life.”
John also shared that his time on The Bachelorette taught him to “live life to the fullest.” “Don’t be afraid to take risks, and getting out of your comfort zone is a great thing. You won’t get these amazing opportunities playing it safe,” he shared.

Will John become a shirtless knight in shining armor for a special Bachelor Nation single lady? The reality star was not a part of the day 1 cast of BiP season 9, but it’s clear he’s going to turn heads and steal hearts when he finally joins the cast.
John and Bachelorette costar Brayden Bowers will seemingly go head-to-head as Reality Steve reported on July 17 that John and Kat Izzo get engaged on the show. However, fans saw a hot romance transpire between the Bachelor season 27 star and Brayden during the first teaser of the season.
In the clip that was released in August, Kat and Brayden were seen smooching and gushing over one another in their solo confessional clips.
“It’s not just that he’s hot. He has like, depth, and that’s honestly few and far between that you can find these days in men. He’s like a golden retriever. And I love it,” she said of the traveling nurse.
As for Brayden, he admitted he “can see spending” his “life” with Kat.
That being said, the Bachelor Nation villain’s vision was short-lived as John and Kat reportedly become one of the few engaged couples to leave the beach this season.
Reality Steve shared a video of John and Kat together in public after filming on X (formerly known as Twitter), writing, “Onlookers said they were holding hands and were an obvious couple.”
It’s unknown if the couple is still together as of publication.
