“The Bachelor” star Joey Graziadei is assuring fans that he is healthy amid concern for his yellow-colored eyes. “Hi everyone, I hope you are having a beautiful day,” Graziadei, 28, said in an Instagram video on Thursday. “I want to jump on here really quick and talk about something that I am seeing a lot of comments about, which is Joey’s yellow eyes.”Fans on social media quickly wondered about the hunky tennis pro’s health upon the “Bachelor” Season 28 premiere in January, wondering if the whites of his eyes appeared to be yellow or if was just their discolored TVs. “So to give some context on that, I have to go all the way back to when I was in high school.
