Hannah Godwin is apparently expecting -- and low key rooting for -- Daisy Kent to go all the way and ultimately win Joey Graziadei's final rose on The Bachelor's 28th season.

Hannah, 28, shared how she is "really getting into" Joey's The Bachelor season and is "locked in" during the Monday, January 29 episode of Us Weekly's "Here for the Right Reasons" podcast.

Hannah said Daisy has been giving "Bachelorette energy" on the show so far, with Joey acting as if he's competing against other suitors to win her heart.

"She's very confident but so subtly confident where she's just sweet and happy," Hannah gushed of Daisy after watching Joey's first one-on-one date of the season.

"I think she seems amazing, and, I'm going to be shocked if... I'm thinking he's going to choose her. This is pretty early on, but they definitely have amazing chemistry."

In addition to Daisy, Jessica "Jess" Edwards also appears to be an early frontrunner on Joey's The Bachelor season.

Jess received the group-date rose on Monday night's The Bachelor episode after she told Joey that her ex-boyfriend had cheated on her, repeatedly, and she lost herself in the relationship. Jess explained how it took time for her to feel confident and learn to love herself again. 

"She seems spunky," Hannah noted of Jess, who appears to be at the beginning of a villain edit.

"I'm either going to fully fall in love with her because she seems really authentic in herself or she's really going to rub these girls the wrong way."

Hannah elaborated, "She definitely has one of the stronger personalities in the house, and with that, you either go one way or the other."

But Hannah pointed out how Joey clearly liked Jess right off the bat, which probably speaks highly of her.

"I feel like Joey likes her, so in my head, I'm like, 'Maybe we're not seeing all of it.' It seems like Joey has pretty good chemistry with her, and, I think, from what I've watched, Joey is pretty rational and normal. So maybe she's just getting a wild-card edit right now," Hannah reasoned.

The Bachelor episode ended with Lauren Hollinger leaving before the second Rose Ceremony of the season.

It was a surprise to many viewers that Lauren didn't receive the group-date rose considering she had opened up to Joey about the fairly-recent death of her father and how the wedding-themed date was extremely challenging for her.

Hannah said she's hoping Lauren will make an appearance on Bachelor in Paradise this summer, mainly because of her witty one-liners and fearless delivery of her thoughts and feelings.

"She already smashed the cake on the ground and this is the second episode! I'm like, 'Please go to Mexico. I'm dying for you to go to Mexico.' I think she would thrive in Paradise," Hannah said.

"I did wonder -- do you think she was like, 'Hey, by the way, you need to choose my sister [Allison Hollinger]?' You would think she would hook her sister up a little bit before she goes!"

Regardless of whom Joey chooses in the end, Hannah said she's really enjoying Joey as the Bachelor.

"I feel like he's felt really present with a lot of the women," Hannah noted.

"He has wiped every single tear from every single cheek. [If] there's been a tear, he's there to wipe it off. I was wondering, 'Is he just so perfect or is it an act?' But I don't think it's an act! I think it seems like he's really just genuinely a good guy."

Hannah competed for Colton Underwood on The Bachelor's 23rd season before she found love with her now-husband, Dylan Barbour, on Season 6 of Bachelor in Paradise.

After the show, Hannah moved from Birmingham, AL, to California in order to be closer to Dylan and his job.


Hannah and Dylan got married in France in August 2023 after a four-year engagement.

Hannah and Dylan initially decided on an early 2020 wedding, but their planning got derailed due to the global outbreak of coronavirus.
