Fans were shocked when ABC released the name of the next Golden Bachelor this week. His name is Mel Owens and he is a former NFL player who is now an attorney. There are not many details about the new lead just yet. One big question on fans’ minds is who his ex-wife is. Here are some answers to that question. Keep reading to find out all the known details.
Golden Bachelor Mel Owens Ex-Wife Revealed
Fans are eager to get to know new Golden Bachelor Mel Owens. He was announced this week as the lead for Season 2 of the successful spin-off. Since he’s not previously associated with Bachelor Nation, viewers do not know much about him, including who his ex-wife is.
Hollywood Life shared some details about his past marriage. The 66-year-old attorney remained married for nearly 18 years. It’s been previously shared that she was his first love. They married in 2002 and had two sons. According to the report, Mel’s ex-wife is Fabiana Pimentel. He was 19 years older than her. She reportedly filed for divorce in February 2020. Right now, there is very little information available. However, most likely, Mel will talk about his past marriage and his family as time goes on.
It’s unclear why the two decided to divorce. Since being divorced, Owens says he misses companionship and just having everyday moments together. He’s been a devoted father and is now ready to find someone to spend his golden years with. The former linebacker for the Los Angeles Rams says he wants someone with the same vision.
After leaving the NFL, Mel began his journey to practice law. Now he is a partner at an Orange County, California, law firm specializing in sports injuries and workers’ compensation.
More About Mel Owens And Finding Out He Is The New Lead
Golden Bachelor Mel Owens is originally from Detroit, Michigan, and graduated from the University of Michigan. After graduating, Mel was drafted into the NFL and played for nine seasons with the Los Angeles Rams.
Owens went to law school at J.D., University of California at San Francisco – Hastings School of Law in San Francisco.
Mel has two sons and both are about to head off to college. Both of his sons have reportedly earned baseball scholarships to Oklahoma State University and Ohio State University. Mel’s two sons are Lucas (born in 2005) and Andre (born in 2007). When the couple divorced they agreed to joint custody.
Owens survived some tough times in recent years. His father tragically died and it was somewhere around the same time as his divorce. When all of this hit him at once, he threw himself into being the best dad he could be. He stayed devoted to his boys and now that they are about to be college-bound, he wants someone to share his life with.
Right now, there is no timeline for filming his season. Most likely, eligible single ladies can still apply if they think they would be a good match for Mel.
