The Bachelor season 28 couple Kelsey Anderson and Joey Graziadei have faced backlash towards their relationship, and a cryptic Instagram message from Kelsey had some fans worried that they'd broken up, but now she is setting the record straight. Although Joey and Kelsey were Bachelor Nation fan-favorites, they've been criticized due to their lavish lifestyle, despite their initial financial difficulties and Joey competing on Dancing With The Stars so soon after their engagement. This has led some fans of The Bachelor season 28 to believe that their relationship won't last.
Kelsey must have realized that citing "personal reasons" without explaining what's going on would lead fans to assume that she and Joey broke up, so she followed that Instagram Story with another one that emphasized that she and Joey are still together and happy.
In an Instagram Story, Kelsey posted a message about Election Day, which had some fans worried that she and Joey had called off their engagement. She wrote, "Haven't been on social media much the past couple days due to personal reasons but hoping everyone used their privilege to vote today or mailed in their votes...and now we all cross our fingers and wait...and maybe have a glass of wine...or the whole bottle." In the Story, Kelsey held a glass of white wine.

What Kelsey Anderson’s Cryptic "Personal Reasons" Update Means
Kelsey Is Obviously Going Through Something
Although Kelsey and Joey are still going strong, Kelsey is obviously going through something that's making her want to stay off social media or preventing her from making the time for it. Her comment about having a glass or bottle of wine is most likely a joke about how stressful Election Day can feel. It's sweet that Kelsey knows her fans enjoy her social media content, and she felt she should give an explanation about why she's been absent to avoid fueling breakup rumors. However, she doesn't owe them any explanation of her personal reasons for taking a short break.
