Daisy Kent is opening up about life with her boyfriend Thor Herbst after the couple took the next big step in their relationship. The 27-year-old Bachelor alum attended the iHeartRadio Music Festival in Las Vegas on Friday, September 19, where she spoke exclusively about moving in together and what her boyfriend has learned about her since living together.
Kent and Herbst were college sweethearts before rekindling their romance in spring 2024. While their love story has been sweet, she admitted her boyfriend has discovered some sides of her she hadn’t shown him before.
“Honestly, I’m probably the one who has more nasty habits,” Kent joked in conversation with PEOPLE. “I’m messy, but I’m clean. Do you know what I mean?” Despite her quirks, she gushed about Herbst’s character, describing him as kind, caring, and always willing to help others.
Kent opens up about her health journey
Kent was a fan favorite on Season 28 of The Bachelor, where she shared her health journey. She lives with Ménière’s Disease, which causes vertigo and hearing loss, and has had surgery for a cochlear implant. Talking about that time, she said sharing her experience on national TV was scary but necessary.

“When I decided to get a cochlear implant, I knew how different it made me feel,” she said. “So I thought I could be that light for someone else and make it more available for people to see and not feel so alone,” Kent added. She was grateful that her story connected with many viewers and showed them they were not alone in their struggles.
