Jesse Palmer is a multifaceted television personality, sports commentator, and former professional football quarterback. Palmer has hosted several television programs, including the Food Network's "Holiday Baking Championship" and ABC's "The Proposal."

In 2004, Palmer became the first professional athlete to star as "The Bachelor" in the show's fifth season. He chose Jessica Bowlin, but their relationship ended shortly after the show. Transitioning to broadcasting, Palmer joined ESPN in 2007 as a college football analyst and has held prominent roles both in the studio and as a game analyst.

In 2021, he was named the permanent host of "The Bachelor" and "The Bachelorette," bringing his journey full circle within the franchise.

Palmer attended the University of Florida, playing quarterback for the Gators under coach Steve Spurrier from 1997 to 2000. He often shared playing time with quarterbacks Doug Johnson and Rex Grossman. As a senior, he was a team captain and received the Gators' Fergie Ferguson Award, recognizing outstanding leadership, character, and courage. He completed his college career with 3,755 passing yards and graduated with dual degrees in political science and marketing.

In the 2001 NFL Draft, Palmer was selected in the fourth round by the New York Giants, where he played until 2004. He also spent time with the San Francisco 49ers and the Montreal Alouettes of the Canadian Football League.

Palmer is married to Brazilian model and photographer Emely Fardo. The couple met in 2017, became engaged in 2019, and married in 2020. They welcomed their first child, a daughter named Ella Reine, in January 2024.

Raised in Nepean, Ontario, he attended both Confederation and St. Pius X high schools, playing amateur football with local clubs. His father, Bill Palmer, played for the Ottawa Rough Riders, and his mother, Susan, was a prominent fashion model and co-founder of Barrett Palmer Models.
