Richie Strahan doesn’t look like this anymore! The Bachelor star is unrecognizable as he reveals his big hair and bushy beard

Richie Strahan shocked fans when he unveiled a striking new look on Friday.

The former Bachelor star and rope access technician, 38, wore very long hair and longer facial hair while working at a workplace.

Richie changed suit and tie for work clothes and stood in front of a large machine.

The formerly clean-cut reality TV beau was decked out in a striking yellow work shirt and blue overalls.

His once short and well-groomed hair is now high and appears lighter.

To complete the “hard yakka” look, Richie had a giant wrench on his shoulder and goggles over his eyes, while giving a thumbs up.

In the caption, Richie wrote, “I didn’t win the 100 million lottery jackpot…but I found a big screwdriver!” making a joke by misnaming the huge tool.

One commenter commented “that’s the strangest screwdriver.”

Richie continued the piece and replied ‘it’s a right-hander.’

Richie fell in love with Alex Nation on The Bachelor in 2016, only to have a devastating breakup months later.

The pair came face to face on Bachelor in Paradise in 2019.

“The circumstances of our breakup were pretty brutal,” he said on the show.

When New Idea asked him to elaborate in 2022, Richie said, “I think the brightest spark can fizz quickly.”

“We made some wrong choices,” he continued.

Our relationship really struggled to recover months after that. No matter how much effort I put into it, sometimes those things are doomed to fail.”
