She's an accomplished golfer and works as a financial manager.
Season 25 of The Bachelor features leading man Matt James>>>P. He's making history as the first Black Bachelor and has a record number of women vying for his heart. Bachelor Nation knows it's really all about the ladies, anyway.
Among the 32 bachelorettes cast>>>P, only one can win the coveted first impression rose. It takes more than an OTT entrance to make this Bachelor swoon, ladies. That bloom went to Abigail Heringer, 25, on night one. She and Matt hit it off immediately, but she hasn't gotten much screen time since. While the cameras have been honed in on the drama brewing among the other ladies (*cough* Queen Victoria *cough*), Abigail has kept up her connection with Matt behind the scenes.
