Kelsey Anderson addresses why she doesn't always wear her engagement ring from Joey GraziadeiKelsey Anderson is putting any speculations about her relationship with Joey Graziadei to bed.
In a new TikTok video shared on Jan. 12, the Bachelor alum, 26, addressed a comment that questioned why she wasn't wearing her engagement ring in a previous post.
"Ah, where is it? I don't know I'm scared, what the heck? I'm joking. I'm just not wearing it and you know what that means? It means I'm still engaged because it's literally just a symbol," she said.
Anderson explained that she noticed some wear and tear from sporting her Neil Lane Couture Art Deco-inspired sparkler, which boasts 21 diamonds, adding that she's making a habit of storing it safely after being out and about.
"I've kind of warped it a little bit. I have to go get it fixed. One of the diamonds fell out because of how I was taking care of it before. So, now I'm trying to be more responsible," she added.
She then pointed out that her fiancé isn't wearing his ring either, seemingly slamming the double standard.
"Joey's walking around without an engagement ring and y'all didn't say anything to him. It's 'cause I'm a woman. That's real nice," she said.
However, she confirmed that she and Graziadei are "all good in the 'hood."

Kelsey Anderson and Joey GraziadeiIn November 2024, the two, who recently moved into an apartment in Los Angeles together after his win on Dancing with the Stars, celebrated 365 days as a couple.
"I still cannot believe that it has been a year since I got down on one knee and asked you to marry me," Graziadei, 29, wrote on Instagram. "This is another appreciation post for everything you do. The laughs, the love, the support, the joy and the excitement. Every day with you is an adventure."
Earlier this month, Anderson spoke with PEOPLE about wedding dress shopping and her upcoming nuptials, which the couple hopes will happen in 2026 or 2027.
"I've never tried on any wedding dress before, so this was really exciting and definitely put a lot of more thoughts into my mind because I didn't realize how many different styles there are," the bride-to-be, who is the face of David's Bridal's newest collection said. "I think sometimes you have an idea in your head, then you go and try it on and it completely changes."
"I think that I am going to pick whatever I feel most confident in," she added.
