The Bachelor's Ben Higgins Visits Children's Hospital Los Angeles for Valentine's Day

LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- NOTE: Please credit: ‘Video courtesy of Children’s Hospital Los Angeles’

Love was in the air when Ben Higgins, star of ABC’s The Bachelor, stopped by Children’s Hospital Los Angeles on Friday, February 12 to join in on the Valentine’s Day celebrations.

It didn’t take long for word to spread that the handsome Colorado resident, who’s currently looking for a mate on the hit reality dating show, was in the house. Higgins, a true gentleman, made sure every person he met received a red rose – his signature calling card on the show.

“I give these to people I like,” he told patient Yvette Mollet, 10, as he handed her a red rose and a small gift bag with a red heart-shaped mylar balloon attached.

Higgins took time visiting with patients, families and staff on the hospital’s fourth floor. He also passed out Valentine’s Day cards that friends and supporters had sent to patients via the hospital’s online Valentine’s Day card drive campaign. More than 21,000 cards were printed, laminated and distributed hospital-wide by staff and volunteers on Friday.

We invite you to enjoy and share this video clip of Bachelor Ben’s enchanting visit with your audience. You’ll see that his presence had nurses’ heart racing and young patients smiling. But not everything was rosy -- there was a moment when Ben got a little hot under the collar as Mollet, clearly smitten, quizzed him about whether or not he was single. “I don’t see a ring on your finger!” she quipped.

We hope you’ll agree Ben Higgins was the quintessential ‘Cupid’ for Children’s Hospital Los Angeles.
