Is The Bachelor 's Colton Underwood Still a Virgin?

Throughout his season of The Bachelor , much ado has been made about Colton Underwood ‘s virginity — so of course, he had to address it now that his journey has officially come to an end.
During the live portion of ABC’s part two finale Tuesday, Underwood, 27, fielded questions from host Chris Harrison about whether or not he swiped his V-card after getting back together with finalist Cassie Randolph.
“I will say, heading into the Fantasy Suite I wasn’t thinking about anything other than fighting for our relationship,” he said.
Unfortunately, that’s about all we’re going to get out of him.
“I know I’ve been very open and candid about my virginity,” he said. “But since there are two of us now in this relationship, it’s something that we’re going to keep to ourselves.”
Though they ultimately ended up together, Underwood and Randolph, 23, didn’t get a traditional Fantasy Suite date earlier this season because she left the show before the two were supposed to spend the night together in Portugal. Heartbroken, Underwood sent home the two remaining contestants , Tayshia Adams and Hannah Godwin , before making one last ditch effort to woo Randolph.
She agreed to give it another go and the two headed off to Mallorca, Spain, where they finally got to stay in the same suite after one last date.
“I couldn’t be more excited to spend tonight with Cassie and I am excited to see where our relationship can go,” Underwood said on the show. “I’ve always said that I’m waiting for the right heart, I’m waiting to be in love with somebody and I’m waiting for the right person. And I’m very hopeful that that person is Cassie.”
After kicking out the crew and taking their mics off, Underwood and Randolph pointedly hung a “Do Not Disturb” sign on the door.
“Heading into tonight, if the moment is right and if it’s right for us to take the next step in our relationship and for me to lose my virginity, then it could happen tonight,” he teased.
When the cameramen returned the next morning, Underwood played coy about what exactly had gone down.
“I feel very good waking up. Last night with Cassie was absolutely incredible and I feel like a new man,” he said. “We had an amazing night. We did what was best for our relationship and we grew as a couple. We had a great time. What happened last night was great for our relationship.”
“A gentleman never kisses and tells,” he added with a smile. “But I do want you to know that I am very happy and you can use your imagination.”
Sitting down with PEOPLE ahead of his season premiere , the former football player said he never intended for his virginity to become such a talking point after he revealed it on Becca Kufrin ‘s season of The Bachelorette last year.
“I had no plans to share that I was a virgin,” he said. “It was something in the moment with Becca. It was important for her to know. I didn’t think it was going to be a big deal but obviously, a lot of people latched onto that.”
And though he was “grateful” for the support and fan reactions he received after he opened up, Underwood was quick to point out that being a virgin is only a “small part of who I am.”
“It’s a decision I consciously made, but it’s just something that makes me into who I am,” he said. “There is a stigma around athletes and I think the more that us as humans can do to break those, the better.”

Colton Underwood’s season of “The Bachelor” was heavily marketed around his virginity, but as the former athlete told Robin Roberts after coming out as gay on “Good Morning America,” he was struggling mightily with his sexuality.
“I fully was a virgin before that, and I could never give anybody a good enough answer as to why I was a virgin,” Underwood, 29, said in Wednesday’s pre-taped sit-down.
“The truth is, I was a ‘virgin Bachelor’ because I was gay and I didn’t know how to handle it.”
Underwood, the Season 23 lead of “The Bachelor” in 2019, dated Cassie Randolph after the show wrapped. The two split in May 2020.
In his memoir, “The First Time,” Underwood hinted that he lost his virginity while filming the ABC reality series, though he told readers it was “none of your business.”
In his “GMA” interview, Underwood apologized to Randolph, 25, who had accused him of harassing her and briefly took out a restraining order against him after their breakup.
“I would like to say sorry for how things ended,” Underwood said. “I messed up. I made a lot of bad choices.”
The former NFL star, who also dated Olympian Aly Raisman, told Roberts, 60, during their emotional sit-down that he “hated” himself “for a long time.”
“I came to terms with [my sexuality] earlier this year and have been processing it, and the next step in all of this was sort of letting people know,” he said.
Executive producers from “The Bachelor” franchise issued a statement in support of Underwood later on Wednesday morning.
“We are so inspired by Colton Underwood’s courage to embrace and pursue his authentic self. As firm believers in the power of love, we celebrate Colton’s journey in the LGBTQIA+ community every step of the way,” their statement read.

Bachelor Nation went through a lot with Colton Underwood over the three seasons he spent with the franchise last year -- but the former football player has even more to share.
The 28-year-old's virginity propelled him to fame on Becca Kufrin's 2018 season of The Bachelorette. His past with Tia Booth landed him a spot on that summer's Bachelor in Paradise , and we strategized his way into nabbing the coveted spot as Bachelor.
It was on The Bachelor that he found what he was looking for out of the franchise -- love -- but not without drama. In his new book, The First Time: Finding Myself and Looking for Love on Reality TV , Underwood opens up about finding his happy ending with Cassie Randolph and the many famous relationships that got him there.
From his sexuality , virginity and quitting The Bachelor , here are the biggest revelations from Underwood's memoir.
He Turned to Google to Help With His Sexuality Questions
Underwood had his first kiss as a high school freshman, but didn't feel the desire to go to the next level in any of his relationships. After suddenly dumping a girlfriend who wanted to go further than he was willing, rumors circulated that Underwood was gay. Those rumors reached his mother, who assured him they'd still love him if he was gay. His father, meanwhile, discovered Underwood was questioning his sexuality through his search history.
"He'd called up the history of recent Google searches, which included gay porn sites and a variety of questions: Am I gay? How do you know if you’re gay? Why don’t I like having sex with my girlfriend?" Underwood recalled.
He kept his sexuality mostly to himself, until he reached the NFL and was questioned about his "number" by fellow players. It was there that he finally revealed it was "zero" -- to some supportive comments, and others, like, "Underwood, man, I know someone who can help fix that."
Aly Raisman Was His First Love, But Ended Things Suddenly
Underwood was set up with Raisman by football friend Andrew East. The pair just clicked, and after their third date together, during which they spent the night together, she asked him if he was a virgin. He told her the truth -- he was.
"I do believe it relieved her in some way of concerns she might have had about my expectations. The slow lane was fine with both of us. We could take our time without any kind of pressure, certainly not from me," he wrote.
Underwood fell hard and fast, telling Raisman he loved her just months after they started dating. It was an accident, after he thought he heard the gymnast drop the L-bomb. She had actually said, "I love Ne-Yo."
While Underwood was honest with Raisman about his virginity and his feelings toward her, he kept other secrets -- like the fact he was broke. The shoulder injury that ended his NFL career also left him broke. "My shoulder surgery, at a cost of $40,000 to me, took most of my savings. The rest went for plane tickets and hotels to see Aly. I even sold my car," he explained. "I loved her. I could tell her anything and everything -- except that I had no money."
Later, it became clear that Raisman was also keeping things to herself, but for a different reason. The Olympian was going through her own healing after the abuse she endured from disgraced USA Gymnastics doctor Larry Nassar. Underwood didn't know all the details of what Raisman had been through, but he had strong feelings about what had happened to her. "I wanted to find Nassar and rip his head off," he said.
Underwood had told Raisman he loved her months before she reciprocated those feelings, but just two weeks after she told him she felt the same way, she FaceTimed him and ended their relationship.
"I pulled over to the side of the road, stunned and unable to comprehend this was happening. Aly said she felt overwhelmed, confused, and in need of a break. Afterward, I sat in my car and cried," he wrote, recalling feeling "numb for days."
Underwood tried to get clarity from Raisman, but she didn't respond to his calls and texts. So, finally he reached out to her best friend, Simone Biles. "She was also surprised. Left without any answers or information, I didn’t know what to do or where to turn. I went for long runs and replayed conversations in my head, wondering if I’d said or done anything wrong," he remembered.
He Became "Obsessed" With Getting on The Bachelorette
Underwood was cast on The Bachelorette after walking by a casting call for Arie Luyendyk Jr.'s season of The Bachelor. As casting process continued, Underwood became "officially obsessed with getting on The Bachelorette. " "I was thinking about it nonstop, like I had OCD. I wasn’t like that a few days earlier; my attitude was more let me see what’s up. After going to their office and talking to all those people, though, I emerged a convert. And hopefully a contender. I wanted them to pick me. Memories of my football career. I wanted to make the team. But my reasons were in line with the show’s purpose: I wanted to fall in love and get engaged," he said.
Underwood was held onto the hope he got from a few of the franchise's successful couples, like Trista and Ryan Sutter and JoJo Fletcher and Jordan Rodgers. He then emerged himself in everything Bachelor Nation. He watched past seasons and read recaps, dived into comments and familiarized himself with the fanbase.
"I found the same level of fanaticism, insider’s knowledge, and passion as the NFL. Like football fans, those in Bachelor Nation were deeply involved in and opinionated about everything that happened on- and off-screen," he said. "They were already posting thoughts about the newly posted roster of girls participating on the new season of The Bachelor. "
He Wanted a "Head Start" With Booth
After discovering Luynedyk's list of contestants and who fans thought might make it far, Underwood decided to follow Kufrin, Lauren Burnham and Booth on Instagram. "If Tia was going to be the Bachelorette, I wanted a head start on all the other guys," he said.
Neither Burnham nor Kufrin responded to him on Instagram -- but Booth did, and they started talking.
"I think Tia had similar thoughts. Both of us were playing a game, trying to gure out our next moves and have some fun in the process. What was the harm in that?" he asked.
After a settlement from his lawsuit against the Raiders, Underwood met with casting directors again in Los Angeles, and decided to make a weekend out of it -- inviting Booth to join him on a romantic weekend. They enjoyed their time together, and he told her about his virginity. Underwood remembered Booth encouraging him to still go on The Bachelorette , which was looking at that point to be Becca Kufrin. Booth allegedly told him, if things don't work out, maybe "I'll see your a** in Paradise ."
He Initially Didn't Tell The Bachelorette About His Virginity
Underwood's virginity got him cast as the Bachelor, but it wasn't the reason he was cast on The Bachelorette . During a meeting with production before the show, Underwood was asked what his "number" was -- but he played coy, replying that he could count it on one hand.
He didn't reveal he was a virgin until after Kufrin's season had begun. He had confided in his producer about his other secret -- knowing Booth -- but didn't didn't discuss his virginity until week five
