Season 10 of Bachelor In Paradise has been a massive disappointment for many viewers. Fans waited nearly two years for a new season but all the changes have made the show unrecognizable. From a new location to a shocking cash prize, many viewers are tuning out. One star of the show spilled backstage details about what really happened on the beach. Keep reading for all the details, plus info on the upcoming reunion.
Bachelor In Paradise Season 10 Reunion Details
With all the drama and backstabbing on Season 10, fans demand a reunion episode where amends are made. ABC announced this week that a reunion episode will happen but not in the way fans expected.
Reunion episodes are a staple of reality TV shows, especially on Bravo. The cast gathers together in one room to hash out their problems, all with the cameras catching every moment.
Bachelor In Paradise doesn’t always have reunion episodes. There was one after Season 8 but not Seasons 7 or 9. But the reunion returns for Season 10. Bachelornation.com revealed that instead of the traditional reunion, the Season 10 reunion will be an episode of the Bachelor Happy Hour podcast.
The reunion podcast, hosted by Wells Adams, will air in two parts. The first part airs on Wednesday, September 3, one day after the season finale. The second episode drops on Friday, September 5. Both episodes will be available to watch on YouTube on Sunday, September 6.
Bachelor In Paradise fans found the reunion announcement as disappointing as the rest of the season. They weren’t happy that it was in a podcast format.
“On a podcast? Why? dumb idea as always,” one fan wrote. Another said, “If their hope was to increase interest/engagement, i fear this was the absolute WRONG move.”
Season 10 Star Spills Backstage Secrets
The reunion episode will only feature the couples from the last half of the season. One of the remaining couples could win $500,000 cash in the season finale. The finale promo teased the return of previously eliminated contestants, including Sean McLaughlin, who has bombshell claims against Kat Izzo.
Brian Autz and Parisa Shifteh are among the returnees. A Bachelor In Paradise fan recently ran into Parisa and chatted with her about Season 10. Parisa revealed that the contestants had no idea about the twist of challenges and a cash prize. She said that it “changed” the dynamic and certain contestants were only in it for money after that.
According to Parisa, Spencer Conley and Andrew Spencer were the only two contestants who were still on the show for love.
The Season 10 star revealed that the cast members are seeing some things happen on the show for the first time while watching it on TV. Parisa said that something big goes down between Sean McLaughlin and Kat Izzo during the season finale. She teased that it involved an iPad.
Is She Still With Brian Autz?
According to the fan, Parisa Shifteh was open about her experience on the show. However, she stopped short of revealing if she’s still dating Brian Autz. When the fan pointed out that she wasn’t wearing an engagement ring, Parisa said that show doesn’t allow contestants to wear the ring until after the season finale aired.
Brian Autz and Parisa Shifteh left the show together, but fans won’t find out until the reunion if they’ve since split up.
