The Chris Lambton FANSITE  

Flashback Friday Feature: Chris Lambton

Posted By karenstivali on May 6, 2011

While most past contestants from The Bachelor/Bachelorette will agree that the best aspects of being on the show are the AMAZING (drink) travel opportunities and the number of lasting friendships they make, many also believe in using their time in the spotlight to bring attention to causes they hold dear. All of the above is true for today’s featured guest. Fans will remember him as the lovable, big-hearted Cape Cod boy from Ali Fedotowsky’s season of the Bachelorette. Time to catch up with Chris Lambton….

1. What was your favorite experience while on The Bachelorette?

Favorite experience was definitely the travel. I mean when can you travel around the world for “free” and stay in beautiful hotels and do crazy adventures!

2. What was the most difficult aspect of being on the show?

The most difficult experience about being on the show was being away from my family and friends. I talk to my family every day and have a really close group of friends, so to not be able to talk to them AT ALL was the hardest part.

3. What unexpected thing happened as a result of being on the show? Friends? A new way of looking at things?

The most unexpected part of the show was the great group of friends I made.  You would think that all those guys together competing for a girl would cause drama and hatred, but it caused just the opposite on our season.  I came out of it with some really great friends who I talk to all the time and get together with as much as possible. And Roberto, who I “lost to” is one of my close friends too.

4. What are you working on now?

I am now back on Cape Cod working with my brother and dad, landscaping for our company. My brother and I own our company, E. Lambton Landscaping, and are just working and living!

5. What charities have you supported? Have you teamed up with any other past contestants?

I have supported Compassionate Care ALS (organization that helped my mom when she was sick, that I help all I can), the NOAH Shelter which helps homeless on Cape Cod, any military/soldier charity benefit I can do, and anything to do with hospitals and nurses as my mom was a nurse!

I have teamed up quite a bit with people for charity. I have run a race for Compassionate Care ALS with Tyler Vermett (from my season), I’m also doing a fundraiser dinner for Compassionate Care ALS with Kasey Kahl (also my season) and Peyton Wright.

I’m running the Tough Mudder with Kasey Kahl and Tyler Vermett and some Real World, Biggest Loser and Big Brother people for the Wounded Warrior project for soldiers.

Reality people have a soapbox so we should use it for good and for giving back!

(Editor’s note: The Tough Mudder is this weekend, 5/7/11, so please join me in wishing Chris and the others good luck!)
