The 32-year-old will be one of the initial cast members featured in the season 8 premiere on Sept. 27. She’ll hit the beach with 18 other singles from Bachelor Nation who are hoping for another shot at love.

It’s been a long time since Bachelor Nation has gotten to see Lace on our television screens. Learn more about the returning star with five facts below!

1. What Season Of ‘The Bachelor’ Was Lace On?

Lace was initially a contestant on season 20 of The Bachelor, which aired at the beginning of 2016. She went on the show in hopes of falling in love with season 20’s Bachelor, Ben Higgins. Lace quickly emerged as the “villain” of season 20 during the first two weeks of filming. However, she decided to quit the show on her own accord during week three, telling Ben that she wanted to work on herself before pursuing a relationship with someone else.

2. What Happened To Lace On ‘Bachelor in Paradise’?

Less than one year after filming The Bachelor, Lace went to Mexico for season three of Bachelor in Paradise.

Although the two had some rocky moments throughout the season, they wound up getting engaged at the final rose ceremony. Lace moved to San Francisco to be with Grant after filming, as well. Unfortunately, though, the relationship was short-lived. By November 2016, just two months after the BIP finale, Lace and Grant announced their split.

Several months after the breakup, Grant described the relationship as “volatile,” and admitted that he and Lace do not talk anymore. Meanwhile, in 2017, Lace started dating a man named Russell who she met on Bumble, although they eventually broke up, as well.
