When The Bachelor premiered on January 27, Season 29 lead Grant Ellis welcomed 25 eligible bachelorettes to the Bachelor Mansion in hopes of finding his future wife. But only one of those lovely ladies let him know her ring size: Dina Lupancu.
When Grant first met the 31-year-old attorney from Chicago, Illinois, he said, “Wow, hello. That dress looks great on you.” On Night 1, we learned that Dina’s parents lived in Romania until their 20s and then moved to Chicago. She also shared that she’s one of 11 (!) kids, works at a large firm, and feels people underestimate her all the time.
For her first impression, Dina told Grant that people always tell her she has beautiful hands. She held them out in front of him and playfully let him know that she’s a size six. Smooth move, girl.
While Dina didn’t land the first impression rose, she did make enough of an impression on Grant by Episode 3 to get invited on a special three-on-one date with Litia and Sarafiena, which gave her more time to get to know the Season 29 lead. Dina grew up with 12 dogs, so she and Grant bonded over their love of the animals. And ahead of Episode 3’s rose ceremony, Dina memorably asked Grant to their prom-themed cocktail party with an adorable prom-proposal.
So who is Dina Lupancu on The Bachelor? And how long does Dina stick around this season? We’ve got answers. Here’s everything to know about Grant’s Season 29 contestant Dina Lupancu, including her Bachelor bio, age, hometown, Instagram account, and more.
Who Is Dina Lupancu On The Bachelor?
According to Dina’s official Bachelor bio, the 31-year-old attorney from Chicago, Illinois “can accomplish anything she puts her mind to.”
“While her career as an attorney has taken the front seat for most of her adult life, she’s finally ready to shift her focus and put her personal life first,” the bio continues. “Being one of 11 siblings, Dina is looking for someone who is kind, ambitious and family oriented. Most of Dina’s best friends are either married or in a serious relationship, and she’s ready to join the club! Dina likes to consider herself a little mysterious, but she’s ready to let her guard down if it means letting in a man like Grant.”
