Sean Lowe’s Season 17 of ‘The Bachelor’: Where Are They Now?

In January 2013, ABC declared nice guys “finish first” as Sean Lowe’s journey to find love began. Sean became a fan-favorite during Emily Maynard’s season of The Bachelorette. And while season 17 of The Bachelor had its fair share of drama — ahem, Tierra LiCausi — the Texas native ultimately proposed to Catherine Giudici during the finale … but not before he had to send runner-up Lindsay Yenter packing. “I didn’t see our relationship coming. … You blow me away, you really do,” Sean told Lindsay. “I want to give you my heart, but my heart is leading me somewhere else.” He subsequently proposed to Catherine. “I miss you every time we have to say goodbye,” Sean said before he got down on one knee. “I don’t want to say goodbye anymore. Catherine, I want to spend the rest of my life telling you that I love you.” Sean and Catherine wed live on ABC on January 26, 2014. In June 2020, ABC aired a condensed version of Sean’s season in one-night as an episode of The Bachelor: The Greatest Seasons — Ever! The installment of the dating show, hosted by Chris Harrison, came after production on season 16 of The Bachelorette was suspended amid the coronavirus pandemic. [jwplayer GEpdatcJ-zhNYySv2] The day before the special aired, Catherine reflected on her decision to go on the series via Instagram. “When I was originally cast, I was very flattered but somewhat grounded by the fact that I would be one of the faces that represented people of color,” she wrote. “I knew that one of the reasons I was probably chosen was because I was Filipino. I counted myself out to be his fiancée because of what I assumed Sean liked. I thought I was there just to check a box, but I ended up with so much more. I became present with the process and as he started noticing me for who I really was, I allowed this experience to open myself up to the possibility of being fully loved and appreciated for all that I was.” She continued: “I ended up getting to represent a mixed race community, I found Christ (I LOVE my testimony!) and marrying the most amazing man I’ve ever known. I’d say doing this show was one of the best things that ever happened to me. ❤️ (Don’t count yourself out. You are destined to do bigger things than just check a box.)” The Bachelor: The Greatest Seasons — Ever! will air Mondays on ABC at 8 p.m. ET for 10 weeks.

Sean Lowe and Catherine Giudici

The couple, who wed in 2014, share three kids — Samuel, Isaiah and Mia — and live in Dallas, Texas. In addition to their joint furniture line at Wayfair, Catherine runs LoweCo, a greeting card business, and Sean works in real estate development. He released a memoir in 2015. The twosome have also made several reality TV appearances in recent years, including appearances on Celebrity Family Feud, Celebrity Wife Swap, Marriage Boot Camp: Reality Stars, Who Wants to Be A Millionaire and Worst Cooks in America: Celebrity Edition.

“Everything turned out extremely well,” Lowe told Us in July 2019. “Sometimes we have to stop and ask each other, ‘Wait … did we really meet on The Bachelor?’ Because it just doesn’t seem like that’s something either of us would have done! We lead a fairly ordinary life now, so it’s going to be fun to tell our kids one day, ‘This is how we met, believe it or not!’ It’s very crazy.”

After appearing on season 1 of Bachelor in Paradise, AshLee settled down with husband Aaron Williams in 2017. The couple, who share daughter Navy Lee, announced they are expecting baby No. 2 in April 2020.

“In 2013 I had a role on this show called The Bachelor. It was a whirlwind ‘journey’ I wouldn’t trade for anything,” AshLee wrote on her blog. “After the airing of my season, I was inundated with emails from fans asking about my fashion, fitness, beauty tips and — of course — my love life. The only way I felt I could express all this was to start a blog. And that my friends is how ashleefrazier.com was born. I never could have imagined that going on a reality show would put me at the forefront of your lives, and I am overwhelmed and grateful you have welcomed me into your homes and lives.”

Lesley Murphy

In 2017, the travel blogger had a preventative double mastectomy after testing positive for a BRCA2 genetic mutation. She returned to TV for The Bachelor Winter Games in 2018 and began dating Dean Unglert. They split several months after the show wrapped.

“I spent 5 years away from Bachelor Nation as I lived abroad and traveled for work. I came back to Winter Games because I’ve seen this franchise work miracles before,” Lesley wrote in April 2018 via Instagram. “Through The Bachelor and my journey around the world, I have made deep connections, true meaningful intimate relationships with many walks of life. I know it’s imperative to find someone who chooses us and acknowledges our many layers, who can be open and vulnerable, and most importantly, who is ready. To meet someone and be met. To be chosen and to choose. To love and to be loved. This is everything.”

She moved on with Alex Kavanaugh in late 2018. They announced their engagement in February 2020. Murphy and Kavanaugh welcomed daughter Nora in February 2021. They wed in October 2022.

“If @bachelorabc only picked us out now …” Daniella captioned a selfie with Lesley in January 2020. “Oh how the ratings would have gone up! 😂😂 too bad we signed up for the show when we were only 24! Time flys when you live it up. Love hanging with my girl @lesleyannemurphy.”
