However, it is unclear if these are Marcus\u2019 birth parents or his adoptive parents. Dawn works as a Positive Community Norms Grant Coordinator at a school district in Carlton, Minnesota, according to her LinkedIn.<\/p>\n<p>\u201c[Marcus] does not have a great relationship with his parents,\u201d Reality Steve reported in April 2024.

My sister, when we were young, when we were kids, were kind of born into a pretty rough situation. We had parents who couldn\u2019t really take care of us. They were a bit unstable and just weren\u2019t fit to be parents.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Marcus revealed that his birth parents took him and his sister to daycare one day and never came back to pick them up. \u201cThat was the start of a very rough chapter in my childhood,\u201d he admitted. \u201cI had to take on the role of looking after my sister. We lived in a foster home together and families would try us on for size and there was a lot of times I thought I was gonna have a mom and dad, and then they would change their mind. Me and my sister would end up back in the foster home.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Army veteran did not expand on whether he was actually adopted and did not reveal whether he has any sort of relationship with his parents today.<\/p>\n<h2>Where Is Marcus Shoberg\u2019s Hometown Date on \u2018The Bachelorette\u2019?<\/h2>\n<p>Reality Steve confirmed in April 2024 that Marcus filmed his hometown date in Washington.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMarcus lived in the Seattle area after the army. A lot of his army friends currently still live there,\u201d the blogger explained. \u201cHe does not have a great relationship with his parents who don\u2019t live in Washington. So my guess is that\u2019s why his hometown is being filmed there.\u201d Marcus himself currently lives in Raleigh, North Carolina.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-caption alignnone\">\n<div class=\"ratio-based-placeholder\" style=\"padding-bottom:66.5%;\"><\/div><figcaption class=\"photo-credit\"><span class=\"credit\">ABC<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2>Who Is Marcus Shoberg\u2019s Sister?<\/h2>\n<p>Marcus has a close relationship with his sister, <strong>Gabriella Shoberg<\/strong>.
