The Bachelor

When The Bachelor premiered on January 27, Season 29 lead Grant Ellis welcomed 25 eligible bachelorettes to the Bachelor Mansion in hopes of finding his future wife. But only one of those lovely ladies came out of the limo “guns a blazin’”: Zoe McGrady.

Though McGrady, a 27-year-old tech engineer/model who graduated from Duke University, didn’t get Ellis’ first impression rose, she did have Decider’s favorite limo exit of the evening, which was also huge.

For those who need a refresher, Zoe hopped out of the limo with T-shirt cannon, which she and Grant used to shoot customize merch with their photos on it over the mansion to “their fans,” aka Zoe’s fellow contestants. Couples merch? Iconic. An engaging activity right out of the gate? We love to see it. A limo exit that also incorporates your fellow contestants? Revolutionary. 

Zoe told Grant that they’d “make a great power couple,” and as the night went on, the two got to know each other better and even did some smooching. Based on previews, however, it looks like there’s a chance Zoe could get into a conflict or two as the season progresses…

So who is Zoe McGrady on The Bachelor? And how long does Zoe stick around this season? We’ve got answers. Here’s everything to know about Grant’s Season 29 early frontrunner, including her Bachelor bio, age, hometown, Instagram account, and more.

According to her official ABC bio, the 27-year-old tech engineer and model from New York, New York, “isn’t afraid to go after what she wants, and what she wants now is to find her Prince Charming.”

“Zoe is super impressive, and that’s not just because she graduated from Duke University with a degree in mechanical engineering,” the bio continues. “When she’s not working, she likes to adventure outdoors with activities like boating, jet skiing, surfing and ice skating. Zoe loves cooking fancy dinners for her partner when she’s in love, so hopefully Grant’s ready to be surprised with tasty tokens of her affection. She wants to meet a man with transparency who is supportive and as committed as she is. Go get ’em, Zoe!”

And now, the moment you’ve all been waiting for: Zoe’s fun facts!

Want to avoid major Bachelor spoilers? This is your chance to stop reading. But if you’re curious to know how long Zoe McGrady might stick around, we’ve got a Reality Steve rumor that offers some possible insight below. 

Per a January 16 Instagram post, Reality Steve claims he knows Grant Ellis’ Top 2 contestants, and unfortunately for Zoe fans, she’s not one of them. However, Reality Steve’s episode-by-episode spoilers suggest that Zoe makes it to Grant’s Top 4, which means she would get a Hometown Date and possibly even a Fantasy Suite Week overnight.

As always, rumors are only rumors until proven otherwise, so you’ll have to tune in to new episodes of The Bachelor on Mondays to find out how Grant’s season — and Zoe’s time on the show — unfolds.
