Golden Bachelor Season 2 lead Mel Owens may not have given Nicolle Kate his first impression rose on Night 1, but three episodes in, it’s clear that the 64-year-old yoga instructor has made one heck of an impression on Mel and her fellow contestants.
In case you need a refresher, Nicolle came in hot on Night 1 by throwing a football to Mel and telling him it just might be the most important pass he’s ever caught. Smooth, girl. Real smooth. Then, during Episode 2, Nicolle shared some serious PDA with Mel every chance she got — when he walked in the mansion, on a group date, in the pool, and so on!
From the looks of the smooch sessions, Nicolle’s ability to take the lead delighted Mel, but it clearly rubbed some of the other Golden Gals at the Bachelor Mansion the wrong way. That said, there’s no denying Nicolle and Mel have some serious chemistry, so it’s time we learn more about the Season 2 contestant.
So who is Nicolle Kate on The Golden Bachelor? Here’s everything we know about Nicolle, including her official Golden Bachelor bio, Instagram, and more.
Per Nicolle’s official Golden Bachelor bio, the 64-year-old yoga instructor from Miami Beach, Florida “is a sweet soul who thinks she and Mel would make a great-looking couple.”
“[Nicolle] is very nurturing mom to two adult children who have found the loves of their lives and she’s ready for her fairy-tale love story too,” the bio continues. “When it comes to dating, Nicolle refuses to settle and is ready for the real deal. When she’s not teaching yoga, she loves to travel, cook, paint, and bike to the beach. Nicolle is a huge advocate for healthy aging and truly believes you can live life to the fullest at any age. Nicolle hopes that Mel is as excited about her as she is about him.”
And now, the moment you’ve all been waiting for: Nicole’s fun facts!
In addition to being a parent of two like Mel, Nicolle was also married (and divorced) before. We already knew that Mel was divorced, but Nicolle was married twice before. So here’s hoping she and Mel can bond over their past marriages and what they’ve learned from the relationships.

Since Bachelor Nation’s go-to spoiler Reality Steve doesn’t have much insights on The Golden Bachelor Season 2, we’ll have to tune in to new episodes to find out how far Nicolle will go on Season 2. But considering she survived the first two episodes and got some serious smooches, we have high hopes for the future!
New Golden Bachelor Season 2 episodes premiere Wednesdays at 9:00 p.m. ET on ABC.
