Colton Underwood Biography

Colton Underwood, a former professional football player turned reality television personality, is best known for his starring role in the 23rd season of "The Bachelor." His tenure on the show is notable as he was the first lead in the franchise's history to come out as gay. This pivotal moment in his life was publicly shared during an interview on "Good Morning America" in 2021. Just a year later, Underwood's journey was further explored in the Netflix series "Coming Out Colton."

Underwood's television career continued to thrive post-"The Bachelor," with appearances in various reality shows. He competed in the 11th season of "The Masked Singer" in 2024 and co-hosted a dating reality series "Are You My First?" in 2025. In 2026, he was featured in season four of "The Traitors." His participation in these shows has not only broadened his audience reach but also earned him accolades, including winning the Reality TV Awards for Fan Favorites in 2019 and being nominated for the People's Choice Awards for Competition Contestant in the same year.

Outside the realm of television, Underwood is dedicated to philanthropy. He founded the Colton Underwood Legacy Foundation in 2016 to support cystic fibrosis research and provide necessary medical equipment to those in need. As part of his foundation's Legacy Project, AffloVests have been delivered to children with cystic fibrosis across all 50 US states.
