During the show’s “Split Week” test, the first women had been sent away and new gals introduced to the OG guys. At a new location, the original ladies also were given new men to romance. As fans saw on Monday’s episode, Rodney dumped Lace when she made a premature Paradise return. Victoria and Brittany had bonded with newcomer guys while in exile, but Serene, Genevieve and Jill Chin stayed loyal to their original dudes, and Shanae hoped to get Logan back after romancing Tyler. Host Jesse Palmer told the women they were returning to Paradise, and warned “you’re going back to a very different beach” as the new episode began.
Are Jill and Jacob Still Together on Bachelor in Paradise?
Jill was fearing what she’d find out about Jacob Rapini when she went back— and was right to worry. He told Florence, “I have to tell Jill she’s not my person.” But Genevieve approached Aaron to ask what was going on with him and he told her he hadn’t made any new connections. As she collapsed in relieved tears, Aaron said, “I’ve only thought about you this whole time.”
Who ended up with Logan on Bachelor in Paradise?
Loose cannon Shanae believed Logan would still be hers when she returned to the original beach, and told him he made her feel secure. He responded with news about his date with Sarah. But that wasn’t all! Logan also said, “There’s someone I need to pursue. I feel strongly for a girl called Kate.” Logan pointed out Shanae had kissed James earlier, and he hadn’t been happy about her man juggling habit. But Shanae stormed away in anger, refusing to hug Logan goodbye. “I hate him,” she said in confessional. Logan told Kate he now belonged to her, and they kissed as the others cheered. But crying Shanae then confronted the couple and talked to Logan again, saying, “I am so f—ing pissed!…You’re being disrespectful.” Kate said Shanae had been a bully on Clayton Echard’s The Bachelor season. Shanae kept chewing Logan out and told the cameras he was “straight gutter trash.” Kate tried to have a conversation but Shanae refused to talk to her. Kate admitted in confessional that it felt good to triumph over Shanae after their bitter franchise history. Logan told Kate, “I’m done being a human punching bag” with Shanae.
Did Jacob and Jill split up on BIP?
The buff blond hunk was dreading talking to Jill when she returned and hoping she’d found someone else! But the quirky beauty told Jacob she’d stayed in bed the whole time at the Estates missing him. Jacob admitted he’d connected with Kate in her absence, although not detailing how she had later dumped him for Logan. “I kissed her. There was something there,” Jacob told Jill. He continued, “You have a unique personality….I just don’t know if it’s for me.” Jill cried—but said she was happy to get clarity. Jacob insisted he didn’t lead her on, and Jill sobbed, “I think I’m gonna go.” Jacob told the cameras how bad that made him feel. Jill ran to her other co-stars for hugs and goodbyes. “I’m just done. I don’t want to start over again” to find love, she explained. She told the cameras as she left in the van, seemingly dissing Jacob, “He sold his couch for cash and I cried over him!” In fact, Jacob, who once worked as a mortgage broker, revealed to Parade.com in a recent interview there have been “big changes in my life. After Paradise, I decided to step away from being a broker. I am currently technically unemployed right now. “I actually do a little bit of ride share, just drive and independent contractor stuff but I am looking for a career in multi-family investing, so my next steps are to find someone who’s doing it. I’ve been applying for different companies,” Jacob told Parade.com. Jacob said of breaking up with Jill, “It’s hard because you don’t get to know this person for an extremely long time while you’re there. We only started talking a few days before going on our one-on-one date…I had amazing time with Jill….we didn’t have any opportunity after Jesse came in during split week to take the girls away from the property and move them to the Estates. He noted, “We didn’t get a chance to say, ‘hey, are we going to be talking to other people here?’…. I felt when I was talking to Kate, I have this deeper relationship of how I feel about her right off the bat. But in the grand scheme of things, I still had such a romantic and deep connection with Jill. I just didn’t want to hurt her or lead her on in any way, shape, or form. Even if Kate and I weren’t going to continue, I wanted Jill to find her person, if that was the case.” However, Jacob said he and Jill, who earlier gushed to Parade.com about his sweet spirit, now “actually call each other probably every two or three days. It is 100 percent an ongoing friendship.” “The one regret I have is not continuing to see what relationship Jill and I had after the whole breakup with Kate,” he told Parade.com.
Are Brittany and Andrew still together on Bachelor in Paradise?
While living apart from her beach beau Andrew, Brittany had found herself attracted to Tyler. The brunette returned to Paradise determined to talk it out honestly with Andrew. He told her he’d had a successful date with Jessenia and Brittany told him she would pursue Tyler. “I’m happy for you,” Andrew said, and they ended things amicably. Brandon and Serene affirmed the love that viewers have seen all season, and they were joined at the hip again.
What happened between Victoria and Johnny?
For another couple, the reunion didn’t go well! Johnny told his OG lady Victoria that he was thrilled to see her, but she had to concede she’d given newbie Alex a chance. “He met a lot of requirements,” Victoria told Johnny. He was upset, asking, “You have a checklist?” Victoria explained to Johnny that she was older than him and wanted to start a family soon. “You obviously want to explore,” Johnny snapped, storming away from her and then telling the cameras that he didn’t “want to be anyone’s second choice.” In a second chat with Victoria, the former The Bachelorette suitor said she needed to make a decision between him and Alex. Victoria wasn’t sure Johnny was ready to get engaged and questioned his career goals. Johnny told Victoria she would have to decide because “if I’m not with you, I’m outta here.” Brittany told Tyler she’d talked to Andrew and they were free to purse a relationship. However, she got upset when Andrew’s date Jessenia pulled Tyler aside for some flirting. The episode ended with tension as Alex touched Victoria in front of Johnny and he thought the new guy was telling her everything she wanted to hear. A preview for next week showed Shanae and Jacob kissing and new men arriving, including Hayden and the twins from Gabby Windey and Rachel Recchia’s The Bachelorette season!
