Have Bachelor Joey Graziadei, Gypsy Rose Blanchard met post-Ruth Bader Ginsburg mix-up?
Guess he’s never seen “The Act.”
Now that “The Bachelor” star Joey Graziadei knows the difference between late Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg and convicted felon Gypsy Rose Blanchard, has the latter reached out to the reality star?
“No, she has not,” Graziadei, 28, told The Post in a recent interview. “I have not been looking for it, but as far as I know, she is not.”
The tennis pro faced the wrath of social media last month after he unknowingly mixed up Ginsburg and Blanchard, 32, during a now-viral round of the Betches game “How Online Are You?”
When a picture of Blanchard — who spent eight years in prison for the murder of her mother — flashed on the screen, the ABC lead confidently exclaimed, “I do know who this person is!”
“Is it Ruth?” he asked. “It’s Jinsburg or Ginsburg or something like that. Am I wrong?” he asked, starting to sense that he was, indeed, incorrect.
“I know that she had something happen where she went to jail because of her mom,” he explained, a little embarrassed.
“Ruth Ginsburg?” he went on. “I don’t know what I’m saying.”
Ginsburg died at age 87 from complications of metastatic pancreatic cancer in September 2020.
Despite his political blunder, Graziadei visited the White House last month where he got a private tour of the prestigious establishment from Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre.
“I met a presidential advisor. I got to meet the Second Gentleman, [Douglas Emhoff]. I had a short moment with [Vice President Kamala Harris], also got to meet the press secretary [Jean-Pierre],” Graziadei told The Post. “All of those were very, very short hellos. That was all of, like, two or three minutes because they’re very busy people.”
“More of my day was spent touring the White House, getting an individual tour of some some different spots you don’t usually get to see,” he continued.
“It was really special day I never would have expected. But when the White House calls, you say yes.”
Graziadei’s run as “The Bachelor” is nearing its end. In this week’s episode, he kicked off his hometown dates with the final four — Kelsey A. Then Rachel, Daisy and Maria. In the end, he sent home Maria and told her he would have felt dishonest moving forward with her amid his doubts.
Outside the show, Graziadei’s pals haven’t pried too much about who he gets engaged to — or if he does at all.
“I honestly have not been letting them know anything or really asking where their heads at. I think a lot of them are being careful because they don’t want to guess incorrectly,” he told The Post. “If I am with someone and they want to make sure that there’s no bad blood there, if I did end up with someone. But they’ve been great. They just have been enjoying watching it. It’s fun to see their opinions and thoughts on things, too.”
“The Bachelor” airs Mondays at 8 p.m. EST on ABC.
