Status: Split
Before Victoria Fuller and Greg Grippo went public with their romance on the finale of Bachelor in Paradise’s eighth season, she and her costar Johnny DePhillipo ended their engagement.
Theresa Nist & Gerry Turner
Status: Split
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.”
Brandon Jones & Serene Russell
Status: Split
“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.”
Rachel Recchia & Tino Franco
Status: Split
Pilot Rachel’s engagement to general contractor Tino Franco stalled when he kissed another woman while their 2022 season was still airing. “I do not stand by what I did at all,” he said on The Viall Files. “It was not cool. It wasn’t fair to Rachel, and it haunts me daily still. It’s something I’m ashamed of and certainly wish I could have done it differently like a million times over.”
Susie Evans & Clayton Echard
Status: Split
Well, it was certainly a journey. Susie Evans initially rejected Bachelor Clayton Echard’s overtures during the 2022 finale only to reunite with him off-camera…and then split once again six months later.
But the L.A.-based videographer insists their breakup was for the right reasons. “The people around me could see that my sparkle had dulled and I was far from thriving,” she wrote in a November 2022 post for her blog “Susie Was Like.” She acknowledged they “had joyous moments often, but deep down I was struggling and felt misaligned with the best version of me.”
Susie went on to date Bachelor Nation member Justin Glaze, before the couple announced they had also broken up in August 2024.
Michelle Young & Nayte Olukoya
Status: Split
Minnesota elementary school teacher Michelle accepted a Neil Lane sparkler from Texas-based sales exec Nayte Olukoya—and a $200,000 check from producers to put toward their future home. But, ultimately, the pair just didn’t have the right foundation, announcing their breakup six months after their season’s finale aired in December 2021.
Though he said on The Viall Files, “There was lots of ups and downs, lots of arguments, lots of fights and just not really clicking, not really seeing eye-to-eye,” Nayte acknowledged that not having that final split conversation in person was “a dick move.”
Maurissa Gunn & Riley Christian
Status: Split
Viewers fully got onboard with Maurissa Gunn and Riley Christian’s vision of a future filled with sweet Sunday mornings. But ultimately the BIP season seven duo only got a couple dozen weekends together.
“We have decided to go our separate ways,” patient coordinator Maurissa (who romanced Peter Weber) and attorney Riley (one of Tayshia Adams’ suitors) announced in a joint January 2022 statement. “Never did we imagine this, but we’ve come to a point where we both need to work on ourselves.”
Demi Burnett & Kristian Haggerty
Status: Married
Never hurts to have a little practice run. While planning their September 2023 vows, Serena Pitt (a finalist on Matt James’ season) and Joe Amabile (the Chicago grocery store owner who found fame after Becca Kufrin sent him home night one in 2018) decided to just do the damn thing at City Hall near their New York City digs, roughly one year after leaving Paradise engaged.
“JUST MARRIED !!” Serena, now hosting the Bachelor Happy Hour podcast with her husband, captioned the October 2022 video. “We are still having a wedding this September but who doesn’t want to get married twice!”
Kenny Braasch & Mari Pepin
Status: Married
Former Bachelorette Becca and Thomas Jacobs (one of Katie Thurston’s suitors) got together on Bachelor in Paradise season seven in 2021, broke up on the show, then reconciled after production wrapped.
In May 2022, they announced they were engaged, and that Becca proposed. “I hope that other people can now feel empowered and say it’s okay to bend the rules,” she told E! News. The real estate agent returned the favor that October. In September 2023, the two welcomed their first child, son Benson. Wrote Becca on Instagram, “No amount of words can begin to capture the amount of love and awe we have over this tiny man.”
Though she’s awfully fond of her 6-foot-6 guy as well. Weeks after bringing home Benson, the pair wed in a spontaneous Oct. 13 ceremony.
Katie Thurston & Blake Moynes
Status: Split
On The Bachelorette’s season 17 finale in 2021, Katie got engaged to Blake Moynes. The pair first declared their love for one another during their overnight date, which involved a paintball excursion, a cowboy tub and a conversation under the stars.
Getting down on one knee, Blake told Katie, “You deserve the world, and I’m excited to support you and be there for you every day moving forward.”
Three months after the proposal aired, the couple announced their split. They explained in matching statements, “We are so grateful for the moments we shared together and the entire journey that has unfolded this year, but we ultimately have concluded that we are not compatible as life partners, and it is the most caring choice for both of us to move forward independently.”
Rachael Kirkconnell & Matt James
Status: Split
After stepping in to complete Clare Crawley’s 2020 season of The Bachelorette, Tayshia met and fell in love with Zac Clark. Though they left her season engaged, the former Bachelorette lead-turned-co-host later revealed that their relationship had some ups and downs.
“It’s hard to be in a new relationship and then kind of go away for a couple of weeks, you know what I mean? And this is me being real and honest,” she said on The Ben and Ashley I. Almost Famous podcast in August 2021.
She continued, “I think after that, it was kinda like we need to remember why we were with each other. And I think that that’s absolutely normal.” In November 2021, E! News confirmed the two had gone their separate ways.
