Bachelor Contestant Reveals Surprising Idaho Connection

It seems Idaho has a knack for finding their way to the reality television world. It is not unsurprising at all anymore to see people competing on reality tv shows and letting America know that they're from Idaho. We've seen it several times before with Boise contestants going on The Bachelor and The Amazing Race.

Most recently, a Boise contestant found their way onto the show Big Brother making history as the youngest contestant to ever go on the show. 21 year old Cedric Hodges is a former marine who officially entered the Big Brother House in Summer 2024. Sadly, he did not win but that didn't stop him from quickly becoming a favorite on the show with fans.

We love seeing Idaho shining stars on our television and we were a tad bit upset when the newest season of The Bachelor was announced and none of the contestants happened to be from Idaho.

That changed last night however when one of the girls opened up about her family life and how much she loves and adores her mother, who she revealed to be from Idaho. Litia (the contestant) told Grant (The Bachelor) on a one-on-one how much she looks up to her mother who is originally from Idaho. Grant had a special surprise in store for her when she actually got to Facetime her mom on the date. The whole country is now obsessed with both Litia and her Idaho-native mother who were big stars on the episode last night.

While not quite reality television we even had someone from Boise win big on The Price is Right. Delaney, a student at Boise State University, won several prizes on the show just last month including an electric guitar set, an at home gym set, a brand new Macbook, and a printer!
