What The Bachelorette's Blake Moynes Does For A Living
"Bachelorette" Katie Thurston's season ended with an engagement to Blake Moynes (via The Seattle Times). Most of "Bachelor Nation" knows it was a long road for Moynes to fall in love with Thurston — he first fell for Clare Crawley, only for her to get swept off her feet by Dale Moss. Then, the unlucky-in-love suitor felt a connection with Tayshia Adams, only to be sent home (via Us Weekly).
Thankfully, Moynes hung in there, because he ended up with Thurston's final rose. About their plans for the future, the 30-year-old told People, "We have no doubts we're getting married, but we have to figure out a few things first!" Specifically, Moynes resides in Ontario, Canada, while his fiancée lives in Washington state.
So what does the newly-engaged winner of "The Bachelorette" do for a living? Well, let's just say that it's a good thing that Thurston said, "We want to jump around rather than choosing one place to settle down. We want to experience life."
Blake Moynes' job is all about helping those who can't help themselves
According to People, Moynes is a wildlife manager whose job requires him to travel to Africa. As Marie Claire reports, he is passionate about conservation, and supports endangered species. The Canada native even has his own line of merchandise that supports conservation, and the planting of trees. A visit to his site shows the line includes tee shirts and sweatshirts.
"My mission is to do my part by whatever means necessary to make a difference," Moynes says in part on his site, with the 30-year-old going to explain that his purpose is, "To bring awareness, to educate and to support the conservation organizations, people and initiatives that risk their lives every day for the voiceless, the animals that deserve to be here more than we do."
As Parade notes, his previous bio for "The Bachelorette" said that the reality star "studied every kind of wildlife management program he could get his hands on" during college. The bio also claimed Moynes was happiest outdoors.
