Matt James Bio, Age, Parents

Appearing as Bachelor in ABC “The Bachelor” Season 25, Matt James was born on December 5, 1991, in Raleigh, North Carolina, United States of America.

Matt James is 32 years old now.

James was born to father Manny James and mother Patty Cuculo James.

While his mother, Patty James, belongs to white ethnicity, James’ father Manny, remains a mysterious figure.

For most of his childhood, Matt grew up in Raleigh in the absence of his father, who left the family very early on.

Since his father left, James’ mother, Patty, started looking after all of his needs despite struggling from a financial standpoint.

However, regardless of everything, his mother, Patty, always managed to provide all the essentials for James.

According to James, his mother also nourished his soul in the church.

James is a devoted Christian who has absolute faith in God, just like his mother Patty does.  

Patty James currently works as a Sales Consultant at Fendol Farms.

Matt James High School, University

Matt joined Sanderson High School in Raleigh, North Carolina, and graduated in 2010.

Because of James’ athletic background as he played football in high school, he received a scholarship from Syracuse and the University of Kentucky.

However, James did not want to leave North Carolina and be far from his mother.

With that reason, and also in conjunction with personal preference, James enrolled at Wake Forest University in Winston-Salem in 2010.

Winston-Salem is about 90 miles away or about 2 hours ride from his home in Raleigh.

“I saw Wake Forest and just fell in love with it. Other than becoming a Christian, coming to Wake Forest was the best decision I ever made.”

Matt graduated from Wake Forest University in 2015 with a Bachelor’s Degree in Economics.

Matt James Has a Girlfriend? Dating, Relationship

We know Matt James is absolutely hot, like a snack on fire.

Now, by definition, Bachelor means a man who isn’t and has never married. Once married and the title’s gone.

But that doesn’t have anything to do with having a girlfriend and affairs.

Now, diving deep into Matt’s social media, there are a couple of things that stand out.

He’s very popular with girls. Like really popular.

But that comes as no surprise for such a tall, dark, and handsome man.

When it comes to dating, there’s suspicious activity here.

There are two different women who seem like Matt’s possible girlfriends.

Don’t worry; they’re not his current ones.

Between March and April, Matt posted pictures with two lovely blonde ladies.

While this one looks like a casual prom date, the other one is the interesting one.

This is the caption to a picture that clearly shows some sexual tension. (Not claiming anything)

However, these are also really old pictures.

So ladies, in 2021 have nothing to fear about. Apart from all the beautiful and sexy contestants who will try their best to make Matt their partner.

A fit body like Matt’s isn’t just something that comes easily. He works hard for it. But whenever he gets a chance of running for a cause, he’s always at the front.
