The Ali Fedotowsky Bachelorette 6 Files: Chris Lambton
It’s time for another installment of “The Bachelorette Files” in which I reveal some background info and post a few photos of the contestants on the upcoming Season 6 of The Bachelorette with Ali Fedotowsky.
One of the very last contestants whose name was revealed is 32-year-old Chris Lambton, a former high school math teacher from the High School for Economics and Finance in New York City who currently resides in Cape Cod, Massachusetts.
Chris Lambton has a very sympathetic story in that he left teaching to return home to take care of his ailing mother Marjorie Lambton, who died in 2008. According to media outlets who have seen the first episode of The Bachelorette, Chris is a really good guy who is wary of telling Ali of his story because he doesn’t want the sympathy but wants Ali to like him for who he is. That impression of Chris is backed up by his sister-in-law Meaghan Hempel, who tells Cape Cod Online, “He’s a sweetheart. He loves his family,” she said. “A girl would be lucky to have him.”
As are most all of The Bachelorette contestants, Chris is an athletic guy who ran the 400 meters for Providence College in the late 1990s. In addition to being a division-one track athlete at the school, he was also named to the Big East Conference 1998-99 Academic All-Star Team. Though he is no longer teaching, he still has a profile on the New York City “Meet A Teacher” website that says the following:
Chris Lambton, HSEF
As a teacher, I helped coach basketball at a school where most of the kids use sports as a way to get their minds off what’s going on around them. The passion and determination they showed while playing was not only inspiring, but helped them win the league championship. The first league championship in our school’s history! I should mention that we don’t have a gym. A school with no gym wins a league title! Seeing the joy on these kids’ faces when that final buzzer went off isn’t just one of my most rewarding teaching experiences, it’s one of my most rewarding life experiences.
A public high school teacher who likes running and was willing to leave his job and life to return home to take care of his mother? Ali’s a real sweetheart and I can’t imagine those qualities are going to be easily overlooked!
Chris Lambton currently works doing landscape work for his father, J. Edward Lambton. There is a website for E. Lambton Landscaping in “the Cape Cod area” with a photo of what looks like a dad and his three sons on the front page. (Chris has two brothers: Mark and Erik)
