Who Is Kit Keenan?
Born in 1999, Kit Keenan is mostly known as the daughter of the renowned fashion designer Cynthia Rowley and interior designer father Bill Keenan. As a daughter of known personalities in the industry, it is safe to say that Kit has lived quite a comfortable life ever since she was a child.
Growing up in New York City, Kit has been exposed to many Broadway shows, which caused her to aspire to become a filmmaker in the future. So, to gain professional training in that field, Kit enrolled at the USC School of Cinematic Arts.

Aside from being a social media personality, it seems like Kit is also following in her mother’s footsteps in fashion, as she finally released her own clothing brand called KIT in 2018. Her brand focuses on producing wardrobe staples like hoodies, shirts, and basic dresses.
She Loves to Cook
Kit’s Instagram feed is filled with pictures of the food! That’s because aside from her beautiful face and great personality, Kit also has a talent for cooking.

She Loves to Travel Across the Globe
Growing up in the bustling city of New York, Kit has always loved to travel to places that make her feel calm and relaxed. On her Instagram, she frequently shares snaps of her chilling on the beaches of Florida and Mexico.

A Certified Swiftie!

Kit only had one serious boyfriend before, which was back when she was still in High School. In an interview, she expressed that she hasn’t found a man who can measure up to the intelligence she needs, which is why she is still single as of 2023.
Why Did She Join “The Bachelor”?
Compared to many, it was already apparent that Kit didn’t audition for the show, as the producers directly offered her to join the TV series.
Although it may seem unfair to some, as Kit didn’t experience those indignities on her own, no one can really argue with her, considering she is the daughter of the known fashion designer Cynthia Rowley.
In an interview, Kit revealed that she had no plans on joining the show, considering she is not looking for a partner yet. However, she suddenly thought this offer was like a fairy tale experience since she had never been in love. As a result, without hesitation, she took the offer; the rest was already history.

Matt, on the other hand, who has now got attached to Kit, tried his best to make Kit stay, but it seemed like Kit finally decided to follow her decision no matter what. Although it was all sudden, Matt and fans of the show commend her for having the maturity to make a level-headed decision.
With that being said, it is safe to say that Cynthia Rowley’s Daughter, Kit Keenan, is a great role model to the youth, as her emotional intelligence is something that everyone should look up to.
