The Bachelor’s Kelsey Anderson felt her late mother’s presence during a photoshoot with fiancé Joey Graziadei.

“Six years ago, my beautiful mom passed away. She wasn’t able to meet my future husband,” Anderson, 26, wrote in an Instagram Reel shared on Tuesday, July 23. “But during my engagement shoot, this orb was all over me in the videos my photographer sent me.”

The clip began with Anderson sitting on a tree trunk in a park with Graziadei, 29, at sunset as the song “Someday I’ll Get It” played. A green orb settled around Anderson as she and Graziadei gazed into each other’s eyes. The orb moved frantically around while the camera focused on the couple.

“I’m not fully sure what it means … but it means a lot to me,” Kelsey Anderson shared.

As the pair changed locations within the park, the same orb was present around Anderson. As she twirled, the orb followed her every movement. When Graziadei and Anderson joined hands to share a dance, the orb settled between them.

“Every time I watch the videos, it gets me emotional,” Anderson captioned the clip. “She is always with me.”

Anderson and Graziadei fell in love during season 28 of The Bachelor. Graziadei proposed in the finale, which aired in March. Since getting engaged, the pair have moved in together with two of Anderson’s friends in New Orleans. During a June appearance on Bachelor Nation alum Jason Tartick’s “Trading Secrets” podcast, the duo joked about their living situation resembling a sitcom.

Anderson and Graziadei have had serious conversations about starting a family. Anderson shared her non-negotiable with Graziadei regarding adoption.

“I really wanted to adopt, and that was a non-negotiable for me,” Anderson said during a June appearance on the “Bachelor Happy Hour: Golden Hour” podcast. “If he wasn’t open to that, then I couldn’t be here.” Anderson added that she is also interested in having biological children but feels she has to adopt at least one kid.
