Catching up on posts, I've read so many, someone refresh my memory. How do we know the name Danielle, and who do we think she is? We don't have a thread for Danielle.

TMZ says Nick had 1-1 date with Danielle. They arrived on a boat with the sign "Nick & Danielle"
I think it's a different Danielle from the slow dance Danielle.

Her hair in her FB profile picture (which was posted in early September) definitely matches the girl on the boat 1-on-1 so hopefully it's her. She's gorgeous and her FB says she graduated college in 2007 so she'd be around 31. She also used to be a nurse at a children's hospital.

I think there are similiarities in the hairline, cheekbones, jawline, lips, and eye shape. Could this be the same woman?

In 2013, Danielle Maltby appeared in this music vid.

Verified as her via a post in 2013 on this account

julychild wrote:[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.], her Twitter username was the same as the IG. [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.], now that you posted it, I can see the resemblance as well.

Another recent music video she was in, and an article about her late fiance:

Whoa! Her deceased fiancé had the same first name and hometown as "our" guy?

? Surely she was aware of these coincidences before the m&g. Would Nick have known him?
From what I've seen thus far I like her age, look, work history....then you post the obituary and I was speechless for a bit [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.].
Whoa!

marriedarockstar wrote:Amazing find, julychild!! And notarose, I agree that Danielle is the one in the sports bra in the group pic you posted.
IMO I also think she is the Danielle on the boat date! Here is a picture I created to compare, using these TMZ pictures and some screenshots of her in this music video julychild posted. Her hair looks like a match to me!

mindless wrote:Pretty funny that she's from Nick's hometown. And what's with Nashville?

Anyway, she's beautiful and age appropriate so thumbs up for her!

TheWrongReasons wrote:Wow, awesome work, everyone ... I think we might have our "Boat Date Danielle"!
The Waukesha connection and her late fiancé also named Nick - crazy coincidence, small world.

Looks like a match to me.

julychild wrote:Great job all around. Someone actually pointed me in the direction to look . [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.], as per Nashville, it's possible she moved there with her fiance. Aside from the modeling stuff, was told she is a nurse at Vanderbilt University. Who knows, she might also have dreams of becoming a country singer.

Good to hear that she's still working as a nurse rather than relying on modelling full-time.

Danielle is originally from Colgate, WI. Her former fiancé was from Nick's hometown and he was 2-3 years younger than Nick - around the same age as Maria Viall but they may not have gone to the same school. He died in 2011.  It's possible Danielle began dating him when he was in his mid-20s because otherwise it was a very long relationship before they became engaged but that is possible too.

Now seeing that the 1-1 date had a billboard with "Danielle & Nick" during the yacht portion, I think that was in poor taste given her history. Just saying.
Further weirdness was the media report that 3 security guards were hired for the dinner location.  Strange given the billboard and "kiss kiss" sign at the fun park. And if there was such heavy security, who leaked the dinner date pics of the couple?

 I say  too.  Hope her past isn't continually exploited in the season. It happened 5 years ago so she deserves peace of mind.
