Melissa Rycroft, the formerly jilted star of ABC The Bachelor, is cover girl for the first issue of Shape Bride, on newsstands now. The new lifestyle mag is designed to help brides get in fitting Shape for their big day. The Good Morning America/Entertainment Tonight correspondent rocks a two-piece on the cover — and also poses in a beach-inspired gown for a second cover inside the mag.
Melissa — who finished in third place on Dancing With The Stars last spring — wed hubby Tye Strickland in Mujeres, Mexico last December, and chats about the big day with Shape Bride.
“Even if my cake had shown up black and my flowers were all dead, my wedding still would have been perfect to me. I’m not Megan Fox sexy, but I’m girl-next-door sexy—and I know Tye finds that very attractive. Everyone needs to find their own meaning of the word—and flaunt it!”
