As a seasoned Bachelor Nation observer, I can’t help but feel a sense of nostalgia and intrigue when following the love stories of these reality TV stars. The journey of Dean Unglert and Caelynn Miller-Keyes is particularly captivating. From their rocky start on Paradise to their eventual reunion and engagement, it’s clear that they’ve come a long way since their #vanlife days. Their camp-themed wedding in the Colorado mountains sounds like a fairytale come true!
Looks like Katie Thurston is getting her fairy tale ending after all.
In a delightful announcement on September 15, the lead of season 17 of “The Bachelorette,” aged 33, and the charismatic comedian Jeff Arcuri, aged 36, revealed their engagement, marking three months since she publicly acknowledged their relationship.
In my expertise as a lifestyle connoisseur, I recently had the pleasure of witnessing a heartwarming moment shared by a loving pair. They took stunning photos and videos during an engagement photo session on a breathtaking beach, capturing moments where Katie proudly displayed a beautiful diamond ring adorning her finger. To express their joy and certainty in their union, they titled their joint Instagram post, “When you just know.
Katie, who has been doing stand-up comedy for more than a year now, publicly announced her relationship with Jeff on Instagram in June. She posted pictures of them kissing and made a humorous reference to Bachelor Nation by captioning the post, “It’s clear that he will be visiting my hometown next week.
Earlier this month, she shared photos of the two on a romantic vacation in Hawaii.
Katie had confirmed in May that she was in a relationship, without identifying her partner.
On the May 29th edition of the “Your Mom & Dad” podcast, she shared, “I’ve got a special someone, and I believe he’s absolutely fantastic.
As a lifestyle connoisseur reflecting on the year 2023, I found myself stepping into the vibrant world of dating reality shows, specifically the intriguing CW production titled “FBoy Island“. In this unique setup, I joined forces with two dynamic women – model Hali Okeowo and influencer Daniella Grace – in a mission to discern the identities of 24 male contestants as either “fboys” or “nice guys”.
Katie shared with TopMob News last November that she found the experience of being a lead on reality TV quite isolating. However, working alongside two other women in similar roles made each evening enjoyable. She described it as akin to real-life dating – discussing their experiences together was like confiding in girlfriends after a date. For her, it felt like summer camp.
She also joked, “This is the show I should have been on my first time.”

On the finale of ‘The Bachelorette’ season 17, which was broadcast in August 2021, Katie became engaged to Blake Moynes, the winner. However, they revealed their separation in October of the same year.
About several weeks after, it emerged to TopMob News that a source reported Katie was romantically involved with John Hersey, one of Blake’s opponents who got eliminated in the second week of the season. However, by June 2022, they declared their separation.
According to a Bachelor Nation celebrity, he ended our relationship, as he confessed on Kaitlyn Bristowe’s Off the Vine podcast during season 11, which was made available in August. In reality, we parted ways not once but twice.
She added, “It seemed inevitable. We were chatting, and at some stage, I told him, ‘I seem to know more reasons for your dislike towards me than for your affection.’ It’s quite an unpleasant sensation, I assume.
TopMob News reached out to John for comment at the time and did not hear back.
In the year 2023, Katie graced another popular dating reality series titled “FBoy Island,” aired by The CW. On this show, she was joined by two other women – model Hali Okeowo and influencer Daniella Grace. Their task involved distinguishing between 24 male contestants as either ‘fboys’ or ‘nice guys.’
Katie shared with TopMob News last November that she enjoyed the experience of being a lead on reality TV more when she had two other women in similar roles, as it made every night incredibly enjoyable. She compared their interactions to real-life dating, explaining that just as you would discuss your dates with girlfriends, they found it exciting to share their experiences. Essentially, it felt like summer camp for them.
She also joked, “This is the show I should have been on my first time.”

During their time together, they announced that they were in a relationship. However, in April 2024, he disclosed that their relationship had ended.
Previously, Victoria Fuller and Johnny DePhillipo were engaged, but prior to them revealing their relationship on the finale of the eighth season of Bachelor in Paradise, they had already parted ways.

However, three months after their nuptials, the couple announced that they were breaking up.
During their interview on Good Morning America alongside Theresa in April 2024, Gerry expressed that they have had many meaningful discussions and thoroughly examined their circumstances, particularly their living arrangement. He went on to say that, after careful consideration, both of them agreed it’s likely the right moment for them to part ways amicably, indicating a decision to end their marriage.
They reached a divorce settlement in June 2024, according to court records reviewed by TopMob News.

After courting 32 potential brides, tennis pro Joey Graziadei found his perfect match in project manager Kelsey Anderson. “I can’t wait another minute to tell you that I love you,” Joey told his final rose recipient, before getting down on one knee during his season’s March 2024 finale. “There is something about you. You have this infectious energy that makes me smile. It’s a feeling I’ve never had before.”
Imagining his forever with the Louisiana native, he continued, “I have known for a while that I’ve wanted to have a beautiful life, but I truly didn’t know how beautiful that life could be until I met you.”
As a dedicated follower, I found myself drawn to John Henry Spurlock, one of Charity Lawson’s suitors, and nurse Kat Izzo, who vied for Zach Shallcross’ heart. Despite not connecting until halfway through season nine of “Bachelor in Paradise,” we were both ready to take the plunge. In a moment that felt like a leap of faith, he presented an Ascher cut Neil Lane diamond, saying, “I’m trying something new today. My heart tells me you are extraordinary, you are everything I’ve been searching for.

Despite her nerves about a Paradise engagement, an all-dressed-in-white Eliza Isichei (one of Clayton Echard‘s exes) happily accepted Aaron Bryant‘s oceanfront proposal. Touched by the software salesman’s decision to reach out to her mom for her blessing, she gushed, “I knew I was not in control of what was going to come out of my mouth.”
The finale’s coda acknowledged Charity’s ex and marketing manager Eliza had hit some bumps after returning from Mexico, and days later they announced they had officially ended their engagement.
“Tricky emotions watching it all unfold,” he wrote on Instagram December 2023. “We’re leading our amicable split with nothing but positivity and mutual respect for one another.”

Though postpartum nurse Kylee Russell lamented boyfriend Aven Jones‘ unwillingness to get down on bended knee—a move he was purportedly prepared to make while romancing Bachelorette Rachel Recchia—she ultimately accepted Aven’s Paradise proposal to “get out of here and make it work.”
Though that meant her planned engagement gown remained packed, “I just had to do what I felt was right,” she said. “Love is all about taking risk.”
Two days after their December 2023 finale aired, she announced on her Instagram Stories that their relationship had “dissolved due to multiple infidelities.” Aven later issued an apology to Kylee, writing, “I have made major mistakes in the relationship and hurt someone who was very close to me.”
In a chat with TopMob News, Charity Lawson playfully commented, “I’m thrilled about how this year has unfolded!” However, her August 2023 finale was far from adequately described by those words. Integrative medicine specialist Dotun Olubeko got down on one knee and declared their love to be “flawless,” posing the question to the child and family therapist, “Would you consent to transform this fairy tale into reality?

Zach shall get his happy ending. Despite more than a few Fantasy Suite-related stumbles, Zach Shallcross ended season 27 in March 2023 down on one knee. “I am so in love with you,” he told travel nurse Kaity Biggar. “You are my world. The love I feel for you is something I could have never imagined.”
In July 2023, the Texas-based duo made an even bigger step in their journey, with Kaity sharing on Instagram, “Officially roommates.”

Ah, Mom and Dad. Though they left BIP season seven hand-in-Neil-Lane-diamond-free-hand, Danielle Maltby, who lost her fiancé to a drug overdose years before she competed on Nick Viall‘s season, and single dad Michael Allio (he shares 7-year-old son James with his late wife) seemed slated for Bachelor Nation couple goals status.
But a year after Maltby relocated from Nashville to be with Allio in Ohio, he confirmed they’d split. “We both threw a lot into this relationship and it’s really awful when it doesn’t work out,” Allio said on a September 2023 episode of Jason Tartick‘s Trading Secrets podcast. “When things don’t work out, when you realize that love is there, but you’re not necessarily compatible, you mourn the loss, not of just that person and that friend in your life, but also the future that you had envisioned.”

“I will love you until the end of time. I will love you until my last breath and I want to start forever with you,” Brandon Jones proclaimed while proposing to “best friend” Serene Russell on season seven of Paradise.
Alas, their journey was cut short. Five months after their engagement aired, Brandon (a runner-up on Michelle Young‘s season) and Serene (who romanced Clayton Echard) announced they had split in a joint May 2023 statement. “We have tried to work privately on our relationship which has been incredibly challenging in the public eye,” they wrote on Instagram. “This has been immensely hard to accept and painful, as there is a lot of love between the two of us. We are deeply hurting and can only ask that there be no hate.”
The relationship between pilot Rachel and general contractor Tino Franco encountered a halt when he was seen kissing another woman during their 2022 season broadcast. On “The Viall Files,” he admitted, “I in no way condone my actions. It was wrong, unfair to Rachel, and it continues to weigh heavily on me. I am deeply ashamed of what I did and if only I could redo it a million times over.
The situation: Separation
After dating Justin Glaze from Bachelor Nation, Susie later confirmed that they had split up in August 2024 as well.
In a turn of events, Minnesota elementary school teacher Michelle and Texas-based sales executive Nayte Olukoya, who received a Neil Lane sparkler from him earlier, parted ways. They also got a $200,000 check from the show’s producers for their future home. However, after six months since their season finale aired in December 2021, they realized their relationship wasn’t built on a strong foundation and announced their separation.

The first same-sex couple from Bachelor Nation announced their separation, which happened in October 2019, after they got engaged during the sixth season of ‘Bachelor in Paradise’.
They stated, “Our bond has been centered around love and concern for each other since the beginning. Our focus has always been on what’s best for us as a couple. With deep affection, we’ve made the tough decision to step back from our relationship. In the long term, we both desire what is best for us, and at this moment, that means growing separately.” [Posted on Instagram]
Current Status: Engaged
In a prelude to their grand wedding in September 2023, Serena Pitt (a finalist on Matt James’ season) and Joe Amabile (the Chicago grocery store owner whose fame skyrocketed after being sent home by Becca Kufrin on the first night of 2018) opted for a dry run. They chose to exchange vows at City Hall, just blocks away from their New York City residence, approximately a year after leaving ‘Paradise’ as an engaged couple. Serena, who now co-hosts the Bachelor Happy Hour podcast with her husband, excitedly posted a video from October 2022 under the caption, “JUST MARRIED !!”. They are still planning for their September wedding, but who wouldn’t want to tie the knot twice?
Kenny Braasch, a boy band manager, declared his profound love for Mari Pepin by stating, “I am so deeply in love with you,” on the 2021 finale of Paradise. He further expressed, “I can’t imagine my life without you.” After their elimination by Tayshia Adams in week five, they moved forward and got married in a small oceanfront ceremony in Puerto Rico in November 2023. Before their wedding, they made their relationship permanent by getting matching tattoos during a trip to the Bahamas in May 2023.

Previously on Bachelor in Paradise season seven (2021), Becca Kufrin and Thomas Jacobs, a contestant from Katie Thurston’s season, found each other, parted ways during the show, but reconciled post-production. In May 2022, they announced their engagement, with Becca proposing. Speaking to TopMob News, she expressed hope that others could feel empowered by breaking conventional rules. True to her words, Thomas reciprocated in October of the same year. In September 2023, they welcomed their first child, a son named Benson. On Instagram, Becca shared, “Our love and awe for this tiny man are beyond expression.

In the season finale of “The Bachelorette” in 2021, Katie got engaged to Blake Moynes. Their affection for each other was first expressed during their overnight date that included a paintball adventure, a cowboy bath, and a chat beneath the night sky.
Lowering himself onto a single knee, Blake expressed to Katie, “Your worth transcends this world, and I eagerly look forward to standing by your side and offering my support each and every day from now on.
Approximately three months following the broadcast of their proposal, the couple announced their separation. In synchronized statements, they expressed gratitude for the shared experiences throughout their journey this year, but acknowledged that they were not well-suited as life partners. They decided it was the kindest course of action for both of them to move forward separately.

Following her replacement for Clare Crawley in the 2020 edition of The Bachelorette, Tayshia found herself captivated by Zac Clark during the show. Despite exiting the season with an engagement, Tayshia later disclosed that their relationship experienced some peaks and valleys.
Being in a new relationship and then leaving for a few weeks can be challenging, right?” she candidly expressed on the ‘The Ben and Ashley I. Almost Famous’ podcast in August 2021.
Later on, she said, “It seemed as though we needed to recall the reasons for our relationship, and I believe that’s perfectly natural.” However, in November 2021, it was reported by TopMob News that they had parted ways.

As a lifestyle expert, I must confess that during season 16 of The Bachelorette, I found myself utterly smitten by Dale Moss. To my delight, our bond deepened so quickly that we were engaged by the fourth episode. However, the twists and turns in this tale didn’t end there. Weeks after my departure, Tayshia also found her happily ever after, securing an engagement of her own. But here’s a shocker: just like a page from a fairy tale that took a sudden turn, Dale recently shared on social media that his love story with the hairstylist had unfortunately reached its end.
Approximately a month after initially sparking rumors of reconciliation, they were once more seen together, fueling speculation. By July 2021, following multiple reunions, Clare and Dale had fully rekindled their relationship, complete with an engagement ring. However, in September of the same year, they parted ways again. Now, Clare is happily wed to Ryan Dawkins and they are eagerly awaiting the arrival of their first child together.

Following a short-lived courtship with Hannah Ann Sluss, who won his heart, and a later breakup with Madison Prewett, the second runner-up, fans were optimistic about Peter’s third try at love. Unfortunately, his relationship with Kelley Flanagan, a notable contestant from The Bachelor season 24, did not work out as planned. On New Year’s Eve in 2020, the pilot confirmed that their nine-month romance had ended, marking another split for him.
Though our bond held many cherished moments, unfortunately, it didn’t last as planned,” Pete wrote on Instagram. “Kelley remains someone I’ll forever hold a unique affection towards.
In 2022, they made another attempt at flying again, but it was confirmed in May of the same year that their romantic journey had come to an end.

After the intense 2020 finale, the pair shared on Instagram that they wouldn’t be continuing their romantic journey.

In her declaration, Madi expressed, “I’ll forever cherish and value him. I firmly believe that our lives were destined to intersect, and we’ve both grown for the better since they did.

During season 24 of ‘The Bachelor’, Peter and Hannah Ann were in a brief engagement. Regrettably, by the second part of the finale, it came to light that they had been facing issues just a month into their exclusive relationship. More specifically, Hannah Ann was taken aback when she discovered that Peter still harbored feelings for Madison.
She said, “All I’ve desired is for someone to offer their entire affection as I am giving mine to them. And yet, you ended my initial engagement,” she stated, returning the ring. “You took that away from me. That’s because I believed in you, and that’s what you’ve consistently asked of me – ‘Show patience with me. Have faith in me.’
Relationship Status: Married
Dylan Barbour and Hannah Godwin, who first fell for each other during season 6 of BIP, officially became husband and wife in a beautiful multi-day event in France. “The wedding was truly magical,” Hannah shared exclusively with TopMob News. “I married my best friend, surrounded by our nearest and dearest, and it meant the world to us. It was a dream come true.” Primarily, the content creator (who previously had feelings for Bachelor Colton Underwood) is thrilled to now refer to tech entrepreneur Dylan as her husband. “We’re definitely in this for the long haul,” she said about starting their life together in San Diego. “Our families are close-knit and play a significant role. It feels like we have a marriage-like relationship already, even though we want to create more memories and officially seal the deal.
Status: Split
After a prolonged period of anticipation, the couple from Bachelor in Paradise, Chris Bukowski (who initially pursued Emily Maynard during her season) and Katie Morton (who previously dated Colton), declared their split in 2019 via a joint statement on Instagram. They wrote, “We’ve arrived at a stage in our journey where we concur that parting ways is the most suitable decision for us. We have opted to continue loving and treating each other with respect as friends because friendship is the foundation of our relationship, and it feels authentic for us.
