Fans first met Underwood on Becca Kufrin’s season of “The Bachelorette,” where he revealed that he was a virgin at age 26. He was later named “The Bachelor” and his virginity was an ongoing theme. He ended his season in a relationship with Cassie Randolph, but they split in 2020.
Several years before that Underwood’s first real dating relationship came after college when he dated Olympic gymnast Aly Raisman in 2016.
When Underwood came out as gay on “Good Morning America,” he revealed that he had secret hookups with men before starring as ABC’s leading man. The former NFL player, who is filming a new TV series about his coming out journey, also spoke out in a Variety cover story titled “Controversial Confessional.”
“I’ll say this: I was ‘the Virgin Bachelor,’ but I did experiment with men prior to being on ‘The Bachelorette,'” Underwood admitted to the magazine.
He added that he did remain a virgin while experimenting with men.
“When I say ‘hookups,’ not sex,” Underwood told Variety. “I want to make that very clear that I did not have sex with a man, prior to that.”
The reality star added that the guilt he felt from hooking up with men is what drove him to apply to be a suitor on “The Bachelorette.”
“I was like, ‘I need The Bachelorette in my life, so I could be straight,'” he said.
Underwood’s coming out was referenced on the most recent season of “Bachelor in Paradise” when his ex, Tia Booth, lamented over the fact that the last time she was in “Paradise” she fell for a gay man.
