On The Bachelor season 26, Cassidy Timbrooks is one of the 31 women trying to win Clayton Echard's love, and it's time to share some interesting facts about her life. Viewers were introduced to Cassidy on night one, when the season premiered on Monday, January 3, 2022. While Cassidy and the other women were the main focus of the night, fans were excited to see Clayton as the lead. When he was first rumored to be The Bachelor, many fans were skeptical, as he didn't bring much to the table while he was on Michelle Young's The Bachelorette season.
However, his season is already off to a great start after what went down on night one. His costar Salley Carson didn't even make it to the limo entrances as she was having second thoughts about going on the show. Salley had just ended an engagement and realized she wasn't ready to try again. Claire Heilig was escorted out by Clayton early on after she told the other women she hated him. Hopefully, Cassidy will have better luck with the former football player.
According to Cassidy's LinkedIn account, she works as an Executive Regional Recruiter for Titanitum Recruiting Inc. in Los Angeles. Before starting her career as a recruiter, Cassidy (who is a contestant alongside first-kiss recipient, Teddi Wright on The Bachelor), worked as a bartender for four years in Boston and L.A. Her many years of customer service experience are part of the reason why the 26-year-old is a successful executive. She credits her time as a bartender for honing her interpersonal skills, giving her a detail-oriented mindset, and enhancing her confidence. Cassidy moved to L.A. in early 2020 after living in Boston for several years. However, she was born and raised in Arizona before living in other cities. When Cassidy isn't working hard at her career, she enjoys living life to the fullest.
Besides her thriving career, Cassidy, who was introduced during The Bachelor season 26 premiere, enjoys living life to the fullest and sharing her special moments on Instagram. Over the summer, Cassidy spent her time going out with friends, spending time by the pool, and being around her family. For the fourth of July, Cassidy spent her holiday on a boat with a number of her friends in Big Bear Lake, just outside of Los Angeles. However, she did have a few rough times recently as well, since she seemingly lost her father over a year ago.
In June 2021, Cassidy shared a photo of her and her father, wishing him a happy birthday while also explaining that this year would be his first one "in heaven." Cassidy, who received a rose during the daytime, to say how he passed away, but in an Instagram post from October 2020, she did reveal that he was suffering for some time.
Cassidy has experienced quite a bit of life through in her adulthood, especially within the last year or son. Maybe Clayton is exactly what Cassidy needs right now and could possibly be the one he proposes to at the end. Cassidy might be everything Clayton never knew he needed.
The Bachelor airs Mondays at 8 p.m. EST on ABC.
