The Bachelor winner Kelsey Anderson has admitted she's "tired" of fans questioning the nature of Joey Graziadei and his pro partner Jenna Johnson's relationship on and off Dancing with the Stars.

Joey and Jenna have posted fun and sexy social media videos, and they had obvious chemistry onstage when they performed for the first time on Dancing with the Stars' Season 33 premiere last week -- but that doesn't mean Kelsey is worried.

"So many people are like, 'Kelsey, why is Jenna touching your man like that?' And honestly, I don't know, maybe because it's her job," Kelsey, 26, quipped in a TikTok video posted on Thursday, September 19.
"Maybe because she's a professional dancer and she has to touch him to dance. I don't know, that's my understanding of it."

Kelsey went on to complain, "I'm just so tired of people being like, 'Kelsey is so strong. I could not do that. I could not watch if I were Kelsey.'"
Kelsey -- who got engaged to Joey on The Bachelor's 28th season, which filmed in late 2023 and aired earlier this year on ABC -- did "a little recap" for the concerned fans out there.
"Do y'all remember how Joey and I met? We met on The Bachelor. He was dating 31 other women while he was dating me and I won the Super Bowl ring," Kelsey continued in her post.
"No, I'm joking. But I have to have a certain level of security to go through all that, and Joey and I [are] still together and strong after a year of all that craziness."
Kelsey shared with her followers that Joey also provides her with the "security" and "reassurance" she needs and deserves to feel content in their relationship.

"We are all good in the hood. If I can survive that, I can survive watching him dance with a married woman with a cute little baby boy -- crushing it," Kelsey noted, referring to how Jenna is married to fellow Dancing with the Stars pro Val Chmerkovskiy.
Kelsey concluded, "I am very proud of Joey, I think that everyone should be. He is killing it. I don't know if y'all saw those hips on Tuesday but you'll see them again this next Tuesday and remember to vote for Joey."
Jenna -- who gave birth to her son Rome in January 2023 -- reacted to Kelsey's post by commenting, "That's my girl right there."
Dancing with the Stars' next episode airs Tuesday, September 24 at 8PM ET/PT on ABC.
On Dancing with the Stars' September 17 premiere, Joey and Jenna tied for third place on the judges' leaderboard at 21 out of 30 possible points with Olympic medalist Stephen Nedoroscik and pro partner Rylee Arnold.

Joey and Jenna danced the cha cha to "Dancin' in the Country" by Tyler Hubbard for his anthem.
Dancing with the Stars judge Derek Hough said it was "fantastic" but Joey could use more finesse when moving to the beat. The other judges, Carrie Ann Inaba and Bruno Tonioli, agreed that Joey has real potential to excel in the competition.
During the performance, Joey flashed his abs, seemingly to earn some bonus home-viewer votes.
