Kathy Swarts was the first golden Bachelor in Paradise contestant to snag a one-on-one date. Swarts won the VIP date by sharing a creative, deep, dark secret, and she took full advantage of it. She quickly asked Keith Gordon to join her on the date. While viewers only saw a few minutes of their champagne and hot tub session, it clearly went well. Kathy Swarts gushed about the father of three from San Jose, California. Apparently, there is more to come.

Kathy Swarts has nothing but positive things to say about Keith Gordon

Kathy Swarts is known for talking about Bachelor Nation. She’s made an entire second career out of it. Still, she’s keeping some things quiet now that she’s a contestant on Bachelor in Paradise. Despite her attempts at secrecy, she couldn’t help but chat about her connection with Keith Gordon during an interview with Entertainment Weekly.

Swarts did not reveal whether she and Gordon had a genuine love connection, but it is clear that she is fond of him. She told the outlet that Gordon “knows how to treat a woman.” She went on to gush about what a good father he is, suggesting maybe she’s met up with Gordon and his three daughters.

Swarts was familiar with Gordon prior to appearing on Bachelor in Paradise. He appeared on her podcast with Susan Noles when he was a contestant on The Golden Bachelorette. Still, this is the first time the golden pair is really interacting on a social level. Swarts didn’t say much more, but she did admit that there is more to see.

Who are the other Golden couples?

The golden contestants only arrived at the resort during episode 3, but they already appear interested in pairing up. We didn’t get to see much from Leslie Fhima, just yet, but it’s clear April Kirkwood is going to make the most of her time in Costa Rica.

Kirkwood already has the interest of Jack Lencioni and Kim Buike. Both Jack and Kim appeared on The Golden Bachelorette season 1. She even managed to flirt with Jonathan Johnson. Natascha Hardee and Ralph ‘RJ’ Johnson were already forming a connection as they made their way to the island. We haven’t yet met all of the golden contestants who will appear on he show, so there is still time for connections to be made.

Episode 4 of Bachelor in Paradise airs on July 21. It’s unclear when the next wave of golden contestants will come in, but we do know Gary Livingston will be joining the group.
