When you love a show, it can be really, really hard to avoid spoilers. After all, you know theyre out there and finding out whats going to happen before the action actually takes place on your TV feels deliciously bad. But with some shows, like Bachelor in Paradise, reading the spoilers only makes an already amazing show even more enjoyable.
No one knows that better than Reality Steve (a.k.a. the king of Bachelor Nation spoilers), and he's got spoilers for the rest of season six's rose ceremonies. While Steve's the first to admit that matching up rose ceremonies and eliminations with individual episodes is "damn near impossible" because BiP "takes such liberties with how they drag stuff out," he does his best to give viewers the play-by-play. And tbh, its kinda awesome to know whats coming.
As for the show's schedule, Reality Steve just released this info after Dancing With The Stars' premiere was announced for 9/16:
Mon 8/26 Episode 7 Tues 8/27 Episode 8 Mon 9/2 Episode 9 Tues 9/3 Episode 10 Mon 9/9 Episode 11 Tues 9/10 Episode 12 (Reunion Show)
With all that in mind, here's the breakdown of what Paradise fans can expect from the remaining three rose ceremoniesas well as all the drama in-between.
Obviously, if you want to wait to find out what happens when the show actually airs, STOP READING NOW. If not, buckle up for one seriously wild ride.
Rose Ceremony #3
According to Reality Steve's latest post , this won't go down "until either the end of next Mondays episode or beginning of Tuesdays." In the meantime, however, fans will meet Tahzjuan Hawkins (from Coltons season) and Haley Ferguson (from Ben Higgins season), who are here to stir stuff up. Both Tahzjuan and Haley took John Paul Jones on a date, which obviously causes some drama between them, as well as with JPJ's current love interest, Tayshia Adams.
Watch Bachelorette fan favorite Mike Johnson dish on his experience in Paradise:
With the exception of Demi Burnett and her GF Kristian Haggerty (who Steve says will stay together throughout the next six episodes), the men gave out the roses to the women.
Heres who got what:
Demi to Kristian JPJ to Haley Derek Peth to Tayshia Dylan Barbour to Hannah Godwin Clay Harbor to Nicole Lopez-Alvar Chris Bukowski to Katie Morton Dean Unglert to Caelynn Miller-Keyes Mike Johnson to Sydney Lutuaco Blake Horstmann to Kristina Schulman
Apparently, Tahzjuan and Haley throw down because Tahzjuan called her a name, per a previous report from Reality Steve . Tahzjuan "loses it," and thats why she didnt get a rose.
But the bigger and more devastating twist in that episode comes from everyone's favorite (or least favorite?) mustachioed man: Dean. After giving Caelynn a rose, he did exactly what she worried he would and bolted, saying he doesnt see things lasting after the TV show.
Rose Ceremony #4
In the episodes leading up to this rose ceremony, some more newbies arrived, including Connor Saeli (Hannahs season), Chase McNary (JoJos season), Old Matt Donald (Hannahs season), Luke Stone (Hannahs season), and Angela Amezcua (Nicks season and BiP 5). Yes, that AngelaClay's ex who's already been mentioned this season.
The newcomers go on a few dates, consisting of: Angela with Mike, Chase with Angela, Connor with Caelynn, and Old Matt Donald with Sydney on a double date with Luke and Kristina.
It's around this time (likely episodes 9 and 10, per Reality Steve's recently updated schedule) that JPJ and Derek get into it, with JPJ accusing Derek of saying JPJ used Tayshia. Tayshia took JPJs side, so Derek ended up crying and left the show.
Oh, and Blake also told Kristina that he wanted to be more than friends again.
The women gave out the roses, and it went down this way:
Demi to Kristian (duh) Tayshia to JPJ Hannah to Dylan Nicole to Clay Katie to Chris Caelynn to Connor Haley to Luke S. Sydney to Matt Kristina to Blake Angela to Chase
Mike went home, which is kinda shocking, but definitely increases the odds hell be the next Bachelor.
Rose Ceremony #5
This is the last rose ceremony (dun dun dunnn) and, apparently, a lot went down. Newcomers included Revian Chang (Coltons season), Bri Barnes (Coltons season), and Whitney Fransway (Nicks season).
As for dates, Bri went out with Matt and Revian with Connor.
In major news, Dean came back and took Caelynn, who was now with Connor, with him. This left Connor crushed (fair). And even though Connor had met Whitney at a recent wedding and was interested in her, he left when she didnt come on the show (and when he got dumped by Caelynn).
But, because anything can and usually does happen in Paradise, producers sent Whitney to Connors room, and they got to spend time together in Mexico.
As for the other couples, Blake tried to put the moves on Kristina, but she said she wasnt feeling it. He was upset and left, and she left not long after.
Old Matt Donald, Bri, and Sydney became entangled in a love triangle, but it was unclear whether Sydney left on her own or because she just didnt get a rose.
The men (and Demi) handed out the roses to the following women:
Demi to Kristian JPJ to Tayshia Dylan to Hannah Clay to Nicole Chris to Katie Matt to Bri Chase to Angela
Luke also had a rose, but no one wanted it, so he left (whomp whomp).
Overnight Dates
Fans can probably expect to see their favorite singles take it from the beach to the bedroom in episode 10 or even 11 (the finale). According to Reality Steve, some couples apparently didn't make it: JPJ and Tayshia broke up and didnt do the date, and it seems like Tayshia was the one who ended things. Two other couples, Matt and Bri and Chase and Angela, also broke up.
These couple did have overnight dates: Demi and Kristian, Dylan and Hannah, Clay and Nicole, and Chris and Katie.
Decision Day
All signs point to this going down during the Bachelor in Paradise finale (a.k.a. episode 11) because duh. On Decision Day, Nicole broke up with Clay because he wouldnt tell her he was in love with her and wouldn't propose. But everyone elseDemi and Kristian, Dylan and Hannah, and Chris and Katieall got engaged!
Reunion Show
According to Reality Steve, the Reunion Show is being filmed on Tuesday, August 27 (and he hopes to share updates from the taping). Apparently, all four engaged couples are still together.
Meanwhile, Clay and Nicole are still not together, Connor and Whitney are still dating, and Dean and Caelynn are together. Apparently, Tayshia and JPJ got back together after Paradise wrapped, per Steve's sleuthing of their social media accounts.
Thats a lot to take in and, tbh, you probably still want to watch to see exactly how it all goes down. Soooo...is it Monday yet?
