Given the way he conducts himself while host Nicole Byer flirts with him, Weston “Wes” Bahr from the “Nailed It!” series can best be described in one word: charming. He’s also undeniably attractive, diligent, courteous, and witty, which intrigues us fans even more about who he is in terms of his personal and professional status. Therefore, we have the information for you if you want to investigate the same, concentrating on Wes’ entire background, career trajectory, and relationship status.
Wes’ Family and Background

A post shared by Weston Bahr (@weston_bahr)
Wes, or Weston Bahr, was born and reared in Prairie City, Illinois, despite his preference to keep much of his private life out of the public eye. So it’s not surprising that we now know little or nothing about his parents, but he has made it clear that his older sister is one of the most important members of his support system. He and Teri Bahr-Peterson, who wed her spouse Todd over 28 years ago, have a huge age difference, but they have always had a strong, loving relationship.
Wes’ Profession
Wes received his Bachelor’s degree in Film/Video Studies from Florida’s Full Sail University in 2009, and from what we can tell, he entered the field right away. His first position was as a production assistant for the films “G Love” (2009) and “Love Games: Bad Girls Need Love Too” (2010), from which he steadily advanced up the entertainment food chain. Wes actually advanced into the roles of stage manager, sound mixer/boomer, coordinating producer, assistant/associate director, and more, allowing him to have more than 25 finished films to his credit as of this writing.
In regards to his present position, Weston “Wes” Bahr apparently still works for the entire, hugely successful “Nailed It!” franchise as a Stage Manager turned Associate Director. The show’s host Nicole Byer alone brought him to public attention, albeit he, the well-known comedian, and judge/pastry chef/chocolatier Jacque Torres all came in second.
In a Vulture interview, Jacque once remarked, “I think Nicole made Wes.” “Nicole for some reason decided to constantly phone Wes. Everyone enjoys staring at him because he is a handsome man. The comedian, actress, and host later admitted openly, “[The producers] were like, ‘And Wes is going to bring in the trophy.'” Then I asked, “Where is he?” Who is Wes? Then it developed into a thing. I just abuse it now.
Wes stated on Nicole’s podcast “Why Won’t You Date Me?” that he finds it “funny” since he is essentially portrayed as eye candy and muscle guy alone on “Nailed It!” Both strange and embarrassing, it. Particularly considering that the entire joke in the first and second seasons is that “I’m terrible at my job,” which is obviously not the case at all.
After all, if Wes were bad, he wouldn’t have credits on shows like “Camp X-Ray” (2014), “Gordon Ramsay’s Food Wars” (2023), “Crime Scene Kitchen” (2021–2022), “Supermarket Stakeout” (2020), “Below Deck Mediterranean,” “Top Chef,” and “Below Deck Mediterranean.”
Wes’ Wife and Kids
Wes has been blissfully married since 2016 after dating Jessica (or Jess) since the early 2010s, which is unfortunate for all of his admirers and aspirants. She seems to be a former television producer who is now a businesswoman in the entertainment industry. The couple’s two gorgeous children are a son named Stellan Robert Bahr (born August 2022) and a daughter named Rowan Winter Bahr (born December 2019).
