Soccer career
The second of three siblings, Galavis was born in Ithaca, New York, to Venezuelan parents, and moved with his family to Barquisimeto, Venezuela, when he was 2 years old. He returned to the United States to play college soccer for Roberts Wesleyan College, where as of 2006 he was tied with two others for that team's third-highest number of assists (25). After several seasons playing in the Primera División Venezolana with Dep. Italchacao, Monagas SC, Aragua FC and Guaros de Lara, he joined Miami FC in February 2008.
Entertainment career
He left soccer after his 2008 season with Miami and began his career in the music business with promotional work in the Miami bar and club scene. Around this time he also began working with Venezuelan musician/songwriters Frank Santofimio and Mario Donoso. They began promoting Venezuelan duet Chino y Nacho.
Galavis began filming television commercials and had a short stint working as a television presenter for a Miami-based sports show, Mega TV's Mega News.
Galavís appeared as a contestant on the ABC reality-television dating competition The Bachelorette in May 2013, but was eliminated. On August 5, 2013, ABC announced he would star in season 18 of The Bachelor, scheduled to premiere in January 2014. As a Latino, he was the first person from an ethnic minority to be chosen as bachelor after 17 previous editions.
Personal life
His daughter Camila with his former girlfriend, Venezuelan actress Carla Rodriguez, was born February 14, 2009.
Galavis has said in an interview that gay people are "more pervert in a sense" and "should not be on the show" because it would "confuse children, referring to The Bachelor aired by ABC. Galavis has since apologized for his comments citing poor English.
