Who is Charity’s brother from ‘The Bachelorette’?

The new Bachelorette is one of three children to parents David and Vickie Lawson. Charity has two siblings, sister Amiyaka and brother Nehemiah — and her elder brother goes undercover in Season 20 of The Bachelorette to help his younger sister weed out any men who go on the show for the wrong reasons.

Fans first met Charity’s brother Nehemiah during hometown visits on Zach Shallcross’s season of The Bachelor and quickly learned that he would do anything for his sibling.

As her older brother, his overprotective nature was understandable, but Charity often refers to him as her "best friend" too. And now Nehemiah is taking on the challenge of assisting Charity on The Bachelorette.

So, who is Nehemiah Lawson, and what does he do for a living?

What does Charity’s brother do for a living?

According to Nehemiah’s LinkedIn profile, he is a pediatric dentist based in Charlotte, N.C.

After holding several pediatric dental residency roles at Texas A&M’s College of Dentistry, Scottish Rite for Children, and Children’s Health, he became a full-time pediatric dentist at SouthPark Pediatric Dentistry in Charlotte. Nehemiah has worked at SouthPark since June 2021.

Where did Charity’s brother, Nehemiah, go to school?

Nehemiah Lawson’s educational background is incredibly impressive. He attended the University of Georgia and obtained a B.A. in Theater and a B.S. in Biology with an emphasis in Neuroscience.

In 2019, Nehemiah pursued his Postdoctoral Specialty Certificate in Pediatric Dentistry / Periodontics from Texas A&M’s School of Dentistry.

How long is Nehemiah on 'The Bachelorette'?

Obviously the most important question on viewers' minds is whether or not Nehemiah is here to stay on Charity's season. He puts on a disguise in the premiere to go undercover as a bartender and get to know the guys so he can report back to Charity.

However, it doesn't look like he's here to don a collection of hair pieces, glasses, and fake noses to do the same thing all season — as much as fans would love to see him infiltrate the guys' cocktail parties on the regular. Still, there's a strong possibility Nehemiah will pop in again when his sister needs him.

Clearly, Nehemiah isn't afraid of a little hard work. And that's exactly what Charity's season of The Bachelorette will be as he helps his sister find the right man.

Watch The Bachelorette on Mondays at 9 p.m. EST on ABC.
