“Not dating Andi but I welcomed her to L.A. and she seems to be doing great and she’s into the whole running thing and I’ve been running a lot lately and so, yeah, nice to see her,” he said on his podcast before shutting down Demi Burnett romance rumors too.

“But I am not dating either of those two and I’m not going to be dating either of those two and quite frankly it’s something I can safely say about anyone from the Bachelor franchise. They’re great people. I just don’t see it in the cards.

I don’t think I could ever say that enough where it will still never come up.” The former ABC lead started dating nurse Natalie Joy in 2020 . Viall proposed in January 2023 and they got married the next year.

I’m not doing that; I’m not uninviting people,” the Shop Grey Suade owner said on Us ’ “Here for the Right Reasons” podcast.

“So I told Adam by December of this year, if there is no end in sight, we’re just going to elope and get married by ourselves. In our house. And if there is a light at the end of the tunnel by December, then we’ll schedule this wedding for the fourth time.

” Three months after she and Gottschalk tied the knot, the pair announced the Grey Suede founder’s first pregnancy in July 2021. Their son, Gates Zev Gottschalk, was born in January 2022 . Baby No.

Not long after production began during the summer of 2017, the show was shut down after a producer reported an incident between Corinne and DeMario Jackson.

While she and Dean gave their relationship a shot outside of Paradise, they were both single when they returned for season 6 of the show. This time around, however, Kristina was involved in drama with Blake Horstmann, whom she hooked up with at Stagecoach before the season started. The problem was Caelynn Miller-Keyes also spent time with Blake at the music festival.

In a shocking turn of events, Caelynn ended up with Dean and Kristina left Mexico solo. “I’m at a point where I’m kind of ready if that person comes into my life, but at the same time, I’m really enjoying staying single and just traveling and focusing on me,” the influencer told Us in October 2019. “I get a little bit of attention and it’s exciting and then I’m like, nevermind.

I need to focus on me. So it’s a push and pull a little bit. I’m trying not to focus on that too much.

She subsequently ended up involved in MTV drama as he cheated on her with Cara Maria Sorbello . Both women released alleged text messages exclusively to Us in December 2018, claiming that Paulie was fooling both of them.

“I want to vomit because it makes me so sick to think that someone can sit there and spout out these professions of love to me and then hang up the phone and go and f—k someone else. I don’t blame Cara in this,” Danielle told Us at the time. While Paulie and Cara later reconciled, Danielle launched her “WoMed” podcast to talk “all things Women in Medicine.

“And if Kristina and I were close friends and she wasn’t comfortable with me dating Dean, then I would have just backed off. But that wasn’t the case.” Credit: Mitch Haaseth/ABC; Courtesy of Whitney Fransway/Instagram Whitney Fransway Whitney returned for season 6 of BiP after meeting Connor Saeli at Krystal Nielson and Chris Randone 's wedding , which was filmed for the show.

“I think it’d be great because you guys do not have anybody that looks anything like me on the show. So No. 1, you need some [Black] representation there,” Jasmine said on Schena’s podcast in August 2020.

“The thing about Vanderpump which I love, the reason I would consider it is because it’s not like The Bachelor where it’s all about love. This is your life. You’re filming your life, everyday things, and I think that’s so cool.

Jasmine now stars on Bravo's The Valley alongside partner Melissa Marie. They got engaged in November 2024.

“I think that the franchise is definitely doing it right this time, and I could not be happier with the respectful representation of a fluid cast member,” she wrote for Playboy in 2019. “It’s been nearly three years since my time on The Bachelor, and not much has changed with my family and our lack of communication about my love life. My older sister has since gotten married to a woman, and my parents were not in attendance.

That is just something that is never going to change, and there are a lot of queer people who have to deal with the separation of family and personal life in order to keep both. I’ve come to terms with what I can share with my family and what I choose not to—it will never affect the love I have for them.” Credit: Mitch Haaseth/ABC; Courtesy of Alexis Waters/Instagram Alexis Waters The infamous dolphin-shark moved from Jersey to Dallas and lives with fiancé Tyler Fernandez .

More than four years after their mutual friend Rachel Lindsay introduced them, Tyler proposed to Alexis in March 2023. “I honestly have to thank @kaitlynbristowe for not picking @viallnicholas28 who later became the #Bachelor where I met @TheRachLindsay who introduced me to my future husband ❤️ #IsThatCreepy?” Waters wrote via Twitter in June 2018, describing the series of events that led to her meeting Fernadez through Lindsay.
