Kaitlyn Bristowe is looking for some golden wisdom.
The Bachelorette alum might have plenty of experience in Bachelor Nation, but she’s not planning to give Golden Bachelorette Joan Vassos tips anytime soon.
“I want her advice!” Kaitlyn gushed about Joan in an exclusive interview with E! News’ Keltie Knight at the 2024 People's Choice Country Awards. “Like, ‘What Botox lady are you going to? What skincare routine are you on? You give me advice. You look amazing.’”
And while she’s a big fan of Joan and is excited to see her journey to love on The Golden Bachelorette, Kaitlyn admitted there was an unexpected hitch in her viewing plans.
“I just started. There was a storm in Nashville as there always is,” she explained. “It took out my power while I was starting to watch it. So I have it recorded.”
As for Kaitlyn, she wasn’t the only member of Bachelor Nation on-hand at the PCCAs. After all, her ex-fiancé Jason Tartick also attended. In fact, at one point the former couple, who split in August 2023 after four years together, was just feet away. But it wasn’t hard for Kaitlyn to keep cool about the possible run-in.
"This isn't the first time we've been in the same room, so it's really not weird," Kaitlyn said of the event, which was hosted by Shania Twain at Nashville's Grand Ole Opry House. "Maybe six months ago, my heart would have been in my butt—but we're chilling."
The 39-year-old continued, "At this point in my life, I just want everybody to happy. I'm in a good place."
And while Jason is now dating TikToker Kat Stickler, the Off the Vine podcast host told E! News that these days she's "privately mingling."
