A few months after filming for Bachelor In Paradise wrapped up, those on the show were able to reunite and discuss some of what went down on the beach in an exclusive reunion episode. While the 2-hour show wasn’t able to cover everything, it did allow us some insight into current relationships, recent breakups, and all of the other drama in-between. Here’s everything that went down on the Bachelor In Paradise reunion show.
8/8 Aaron And Genevieve Worked Out Their Differences
The last we saw of Aaron and Genevieve was an ugly breakup on the beach in which each was accusing each other of the reasons that led to their split. Since that day, neither had spoken to one another. They got the chance to talk for the first time since their split at the BIP reunion.
While their time on the beach might have been full of drama, their reunion sure wasn’t. Genevieve and Aaron both took time to acknowledge where they went wrong, expressed why things didn’t work between them, and apologized. In the end, they both left the hot seat after hugging. While they may no longer be together as a couple, it was nice to see them end things on good terms.
7/8 We Learned About The Drama Between Johnny And Victoria
Johnny and Victoria did get engaged on the beach, but we learned at the reunion that the two are no longer together. In fact, Victoria is now in a relationship with Greg Grippo, which has stirred up its own set of drama. At the reunion, Johnny accused Victoria of emotionally cheating on him with Greg while they were still together, which Victoria denied. She maintains that Johnny was verbally abusive, and she needed to leave the relationship.
While neither of those claims can really be proven true, we saw Tyler get angry over the situation in defense of Johnny. He became especially upset when Victoria and Greg later took the stage together, flaunting their new tattoos that they got together during their first date in Italy. Despite everything that happened, though, Johnny has said that the reunion gave him closure that he needed to move on.
6/8 Michael Told Danielle He Loved Her
The breakup between Sierra and Michael was addressed, but not given too much attention. After Sierra threw some shade while watching her split from Michael on Paradise, there might have been an expectation for drama. But instead it was far from it — Michael apologized, and Sierra wished him well.
We then got an update on Michael and Danielle, who are still going strong. In fact, Michael told Danielle he loved her for the first time while on stage at the reunion, which is especially meaningful given that Michael has only said “I love you” to one other person, which was his late wife, Laura. If this wasn’t enough of great news, we also learned that Danielle will be moving to Akron, Michael’s hometown (although not moving in with him, just yet). We are so happy to see this couple working out so well!

5/8 Logan Was Able To Defend Himself Against Kate’s Criticisms On The Beach
If you watched any episodes from Paradise, you probably saw Kate criticize Logan for his lifestyle. While Logan was unaware of Kate’s comments while on the beach, he was able to confront them at the reunion show. Kate began by saying that Logan wasn’t meant to hear any of those comments because they were said in private. Logan laughed, saying that there were cameras everywhere and everyone was mic’ed up.
He then spoke about how a few years back, he moved with very little. He spent the next year working to save up money in any way he could, including taking a job as a scuba instructor. Logan went on to say how proud he was of himself for all of this and how Kate tried to use it against him to try and humiliate him in front of her friends.
He then said he wished Kate had said those things to his face so that he knew that there was nothing between them and could have explored other options. Still, Logan has said that he doesn’t think Kate is a bad person, and that everyone has ugly moments. Given some of Logan’s actions in the past, standing up for himself in such a vulnerable way at the reunion has earned him a lot more respect.
4/8 Jacob And Jill Reunited
Jacob and Jill’s breakup after split week was hard to watch. It was also hard for Jacob, which he revealed at the reunion show. He felt so much remorse, in fact, that he walked over to Jill at the reunion, asked her if she wanted to date again, and scooped her up and walked off-stage after she said yes. Jill posted a picture of them on Twitter when the reunion aired, indicating that the two were still together.
3/8 Tyler And Brittany Had An Unexpected Split
We also learned that Tyler and Brittany broke up after leaving the beach together, but the reason why remains somewhat unknown. We do know that Tyler says it came unexpectedly — they seemed to be doing great, meeting one another’s families, and then Brittany told him she needed some space and planned to go to Europe to do so. While on that trip, she FaceTimed Tyler and broke up with him, which just so happened to be the same day that the episode of Rachel breaking up with Tyler aired on TV.
Brittany says things happened a little differently, though, saying that when she told Tyler she needed space, he didn’t give it to her. In fact, she said that 2 hours after she told him she needed space, he was DMing her on Instagram. Whatever the truth is, it was sad to see the two split in such a messy way after what seemed like a great relationship on Paradise.
2/8 Eliza Expressed That She Still Has Feelings For Rodney
The drama between Eliza, Rodney, and Justin — one of the most dramatic love triangles — continues. After giving Rodney a rose in Paradise, Eliza decided that she made a mistake and went to find Justin to try and pursue that relationship instead. Justin, though, turned her down, saying he wanted someone to be sure of him from the start. At the reunion, Eliza got the chance to confront Rodney about what happened, saying that she still had feelings for him and would be interested in pursuing things again. Rodney respectfully declined.
1/8 Brandon And Serene Are Loving Life As A Happy Couple
While the reunion show was full of drama, there was a very happy ending for Brandon and Serene, who joined the stage as an engaged couple. The two are currently planning a wedding, and they looked happier than ever. We honestly could not be more happy to see such a healthy, romantic couple come out of Paradise this season.
