00:07:04,257 --> 00:07:07,027
some bitch's legs on him,
I'll blow his [bleep] clean
off.
179
00:07:07,127 --> 00:07:08,828
- I did make a connection...
- OK.
180
00:07:08,929 --> 00:07:11,698
- With Kate and--
- [laughs]
181
00:07:11,798 --> 00:07:14,034
[sobs] It's OK.
182
00:07:14,134 --> 00:07:15,268
I just wanna go.
183
00:07:15,368 --> 00:07:17,003
I think it's just like
what hurts the most
184
00:07:17,103 --> 00:07:18,405
is just like, I just--
185
00:07:18,505 --> 00:07:21,374
A Lyft driver could
break my heart.
186
00:07:21,474 --> 00:07:24,144
He sold his couch for cash,
187
00:07:24,244 --> 00:07:27,013
and I cried over him.
188
00:07:27,113 --> 00:07:29,416
[applause]
189
00:07:29,516 --> 00:07:30,884
- OK, well, we clearly have
a lot of things
190
00:07:31,017 --> 00:07:32,352
to cover tonight.
191
00:07:32,452 --> 00:07:34,621
I can tell
you all have tons to say.
192
00:07:34,721 --> 00:07:36,423
So Romeo,
I'm gonna start with you.
193
00:07:36,523 --> 00:07:38,792
- OK.
- This is your face.
194
00:07:38,892 --> 00:07:40,226
[laughter]
195
00:07:40,327 --> 00:07:42,362
- He looks happy, guys.
196
00:07:42,462 --> 00:07:43,730
- And Wells, obviously,
you know,
197
00:07:43,830 --> 00:07:45,865
you saw this whole thing
go down.
198
00:07:45,966 --> 00:07:48,535
What's your take on Kira
leaving the beach with Romeo?
199
00:07:48,635 --> 00:07:50,937
- Your facial expression
has got to be
200
00:07:51,037 --> 00:07:54,341
the funniest thing
I have ever seen
201
00:07:54,441 --> 00:07:56,743
in Paradise, hands down.
202
00:07:56,843 --> 00:07:59,012
[laughter]
203
00:07:59,112 --> 00:08:00,380
- Kira, what do you
have to say to all the--
204
00:08:00,480 --> 00:08:03,516
what we're hearing online
about you kidnapping Romeo?
205
00:08:03,616 --> 00:08:04,551
- He's fine.
206
00:08:04,651 --> 00:08:06,286
- Oh, my God.
- It works.
207
00:08:06,386 --> 00:08:07,554
- We're very happy.
208
00:08:07,654 --> 00:08:09,723
- So Romeo, I'll give you
the final word here, man.
209
00:08:09,823 --> 00:08:11,291
Blink twice if
you're doing OK.
210
00:08:11,391 --> 00:08:13,293
- [laughs] Yeah.
Blink twice.
211
00:08:13,393 --> 00:08:14,995
[cheering]
212
00:08:15,095 --> 00:08:16,763
I think that was too blinks.
213
00:08:16,863 --> 00:08:18,798
[cheering]
214
00:08:18,898 --> 00:08:21,001
- Oh, for real?
[laughs]
215
00:08:21,101 --> 00:08:23,236
[cheering]
216
00:08:23,336 --> 00:08:24,838
- There were so many moments
this season
217
00:08:24,938 --> 00:08:27,440
that seemed to have massive
repercussions on the beach,
218
00:08:27,540 --> 00:08:30,777
but there was one thing that
changed the course of Paradise
219
00:08:30,877 --> 00:08:33,146
forever, and yes,
220
00:08:33,246 --> 00:08:35,482
I'm talking about
the Split Week.
221
00:08:35,582 --> 00:08:37,117
[applause]
222
00:08:37,217 --> 00:08:40,653
[booing]
223
00:08:40,754 --> 00:08:41,755
Hey, whoa, whoa.
Don't shoot me.
224
00:08:41,855 --> 00:08:43,023
I'm just the messenger
in all this.
225
00:08:43,123 --> 00:08:44,357
[laughter]
No, but seriously,
226
00:08:44,457 --> 00:08:46,292
the ripple effects
of that week,
227
00:08:46,393 --> 00:08:48,395
they really, truly
were felt all the way
228
00:08:48,495 --> 00:08:50,830
until the final day
on the beach.
229
00:08:50,930 --> 00:08:53,967
Shanae, obviously,
it was a very emotional day
230
00:08:54,034 --> 00:08:55,201
for all of the women there.
231
00:08:55,301 --> 00:08:57,504
Why do you think it had
such a big impact?
232
00:08:57,604 --> 00:08:59,005
- I think it had
such a big impact
233
00:08:59,105 --> 00:09:00,673
because it was so unexpected.
234
00:09:00,774 --> 00:09:02,575
There were some conversations
that hadn't happened
235
00:09:02,675 --> 00:09:03,743
that needed to be had.
236
00:09:03,843 --> 00:09:04,844
And then you see, you know,
237
00:09:04,944 --> 00:09:06,246
new faces come on the beach.
238
00:09:06,346 --> 00:09:09,349
Like, well,
what do we do from here?
239
00:09:09,449 --> 00:09:11,551
- You had explored other
relationships earlier on.
240
00:09:11,651 --> 00:09:13,186
And you would do it again
during the Split Week
241
00:09:13,286 --> 00:09:15,555
with Tyler,
but it did kind of seem like
242
00:09:15,655 --> 00:09:18,992
you resented Logan for his
desire to want to do that,
too.
243
00:09:19,092 --> 00:09:20,994
How come?
244
00:09:21,094 --> 00:09:25,632
- I believe Logan
didn't genuinely want to
245
00:09:25,732 --> 00:09:26,966
really pursue other women.
246
00:09:27,067 --> 00:09:29,169
Maybe a little bit,
but I think out of spite,
247
00:09:29,269 --> 00:09:32,172
he did it to get back at me
from the whole James date.
248
00:09:32,272 --> 00:09:34,441
What you guys didn't see--
249
00:09:34,541 --> 00:09:36,042
what was it?
I don't know,
250
00:09:36,142 --> 00:09:38,378
first or second Rose Ceremony,
251
00:09:38,478 --> 00:09:41,147
you reminded me
to keep my options open
252
00:09:41,247 --> 00:09:43,049
during the Rose Ceremony.
253
00:09:43,149 --> 00:09:45,852
And I was like,
well, that's weird.
254
00:09:45,952 --> 00:09:47,754
Like, it's what we just
told everyone in the room,
255
00:09:47,854 --> 00:09:49,689
how confident
and secure we were.
256
00:09:49,789 --> 00:09:51,658
But then you're gonna--
257
00:09:51,758 --> 00:09:53,593
"Hey, Shanae,
let's keep our options open."
258
00:09:53,693 --> 00:09:54,894
So I did.
259
00:09:54,994 --> 00:09:56,729
- No, yeah, I'd love to
respond to that.
260
00:09:56,830 --> 00:09:58,865
I'm really glad
you brought it up.
261
00:09:58,965 --> 00:10:01,267
It's possible to be
happy and confident
262
00:10:01,367 --> 00:10:05,405
and, like, really care
about someone and also say,
263
00:10:05,505 --> 00:10:07,974
I want you to know that
I'm not going to chain you
down
264
00:10:08,074 --> 00:10:09,275
and be controlling of you.
265
00:10:09,375 --> 00:10:10,577
Those two things are possible,
and that's what
266
00:10:10,677 --> 00:10:11,711
I wanted to communicate,
267
00:10:11,811 --> 00:10:13,546
and it obviously didn't
get through.
268
00:10:13,646 --> 00:10:14,647
- OK, so to be clear,
269
00:10:14,747 --> 00:10:15,982
you didn't pursue Kate
270
00:10:16,082 --> 00:10:17,350
because she had gone on a date
with James?
271
00:10:17,450 --> 00:10:18,651
- No, I mean,
if everyone watched,
272
00:10:18,751 --> 00:10:21,287
they saw I was afraid
to say yes.
273
00:10:21,387 --> 00:10:22,755
I talked to my friends
on the couch.
274
00:10:22,856 --> 00:10:25,191
And I said, guys, I don't know
if I want to do this.
275
00:10:25,291 --> 00:10:26,459
I care about Shanae.
276
00:10:26,559 --> 00:10:28,628
And I'm like, I'm not sure
what she would do.
277
00:10:28,728 --> 00:10:29,829
They said, you know what?
278
00:10:29,929 --> 00:10:31,464
I don't think Shanae
would hesitate,
279
00:10:31,564 --> 00:10:32,765
and she definitely didn't.
280
00:10:32,866 --> 00:10:35,001
So I'm glad I made
the choices I did.
281
00:10:35,101 --> 00:10:37,337
I'm glad I have good friends
to fall back on.
282
00:10:37,437 --> 00:10:40,306
And obviously, my attempt to
283
00:10:40,406 --> 00:10:42,842
be understanding fell short.
284
00:10:42,942 --> 00:10:45,979
- Does that change your mind
at all, hearing his
explanation?
285
00:10:46,079 --> 00:10:48,348
- No. I don't--no.
286
00:10:48,448 --> 00:10:49,449
- That's not surprising to me.
- No.
287
00:10:49,549 --> 00:10:50,750
[laughter]
288
00:10:50,850 --> 00:10:52,952
- OK, we're gonna have to
leave it there for now.
289
00:10:53,052 --> 00:10:55,588
But we are just getting
started, Bachelor Nation.
290
00:10:55,688 --> 00:10:57,257
We got so much more
to get to,
291
00:10:57,357 --> 00:10:59,592
including the answers
to all your questions
292
00:10:59,692 --> 00:11:02,395
about our final two couples,
Victoria and Johnny
293
00:11:02,495 --> 00:11:04,631
and Serene and Brandon.
294
00:11:04,731 --> 00:11:06,666
Will there be
a proposal tonight?
295
00:11:06,766 --> 00:11:07,867
Will there be two?
296
00:11:07,967 --> 00:11:10,003
And what really happened
after filming ended?
297
00:11:10,103 --> 00:11:12,805
And then more importantly,
when did it all happen?
298
00:11:12,906 --> 00:11:14,174
I know a lot of you
back home think
299
00:11:14,274 --> 00:11:16,976
you know what's gone down
with our final two couples.
300
00:11:17,076 --> 00:11:18,845
But trust me, you don't.
301
00:11:18,945 --> 00:11:21,080
All that and more
when the "Bachelor in
Paradise"
302
00:11:21,181 --> 00:11:22,482
finale returns.
303
00:11:22,582 --> 00:11:25,518
[cheering]
304
00:11:27,554 --> 00:11:30,456
[dramatic music]
305
00:11:30,557 --> 00:11:34,494
♪
306
00:11:34,594 --> 00:11:36,796
- Welcome back to the
"Bachelor in Paradise" finale.
307
00:11:36,896 --> 00:11:38,231
It's already been
a wild night,
308
00:11:38,331 --> 00:11:40,133
and we are just
getting started.
309
00:11:40,233 --> 00:11:41,768
We've been talking
to Shanae and Logan
310
00:11:41,868 --> 00:11:45,772
about Split Week and the
effect it had on their
relationship.
311
00:11:45,872 --> 00:11:47,540
Kate, obviously,
you had a big part in this,
too.
312
00:11:47,640 --> 00:11:51,611
Because you seemed unfazed
to pursue Logan,
313
00:11:51,711 --> 00:11:54,514
even though you knew that he
was dating Shanae at the time.
314
00:11:54,614 --> 00:11:56,249
How come?
315
00:11:56,349 --> 00:12:00,086
- I think Logan and I
were both pretty unfazed.
316
00:12:00,186 --> 00:12:03,089
We both were
pursuing each other.
317
00:12:03,189 --> 00:12:05,024
I don't believe that it
was one-sided at all.
318
00:12:05,124 --> 00:12:08,528
We felt something between us
that was an almost tangible
319
00:12:08,628 --> 00:12:10,697
connection,
and I think we both wanted
320
00:12:10,797 --> 00:12:12,165
to explore that right away.
321
00:12:12,265 --> 00:12:13,833
- Well, once the dust settled
with Shanae,
322
00:12:13,933 --> 00:12:15,501
you were able to pursue
your relationship,
323
00:12:15,602 --> 00:12:16,869
of course, with Logan, Kate.
324
00:12:16,970 --> 00:12:18,738
But then it wasn't very long
after that
325
00:12:18,838 --> 00:12:22,475
that you started voicing
some concerns about him.
326
00:12:22,575 --> 00:12:23,943
What were they, exactly?
327
00:12:24,043 --> 00:12:27,280
- I want to touch on
those concerns
328
00:12:27,380 --> 00:12:30,016
just directly to you, Logan.
329
00:12:30,116 --> 00:12:33,186
The way that those concerns
came across,
330
00:12:33,286 --> 00:12:34,654
that was so out of pocket.
331
00:12:34,754 --> 00:12:37,824
And I hate
that you had to hear that.
332
00:12:37,924 --> 00:12:40,093
When I was vocalizing
those concerns,
333
00:12:40,193 --> 00:12:43,463
it was to my girlfriends
in private,
334
00:12:43,563 --> 00:12:46,199
something that I never, ever
wanted you to hear.
335
00:12:46,299 --> 00:12:47,200
Because, like--
336
00:12:47,300 --> 00:12:49,569
[laughter]
See? I'm for real.
337
00:12:49,669 --> 00:12:51,070
- There's kind of cameras
everywhere.
338
00:12:51,170 --> 00:12:52,672
We're wearing mics.
[booing]
339
00:12:52,772 --> 00:12:54,107
- Yeah, OK, certainly.
340
00:12:54,207 --> 00:12:56,376
But I'm not saying them,
like, directly to you,
341
00:12:56,476 --> 00:12:59,479
because it's not even about,
like, the car you drive
342
00:12:59,579 --> 00:13:01,314
or what gym you go to.
343
00:13:01,414 --> 00:13:04,550
Those were just, like, things
that were symbolic
344
00:13:04,651 --> 00:13:07,453
of something deeper that I was
feeling, which was that
345
00:13:07,553 --> 00:13:10,757
you weren't ready for the type
of serious partnership
346
00:13:10,857 --> 00:13:12,859
that I'm looking for.
347
00:13:14,227 --> 00:13:17,163
- Um, you know what?
348
00:13:17,263 --> 00:13:19,032
Four years ago,
I moved to California
349
00:13:19,132 --> 00:13:20,266
with nothing but my car.
350
00:13:20,366 --> 00:13:22,201
I wanted to have a career

00:27:16,935 --> 00:27:17,836
and packing their bags.
699
00:27:17,936 --> 00:27:19,771
- Get me a car, please.
700
00:27:19,872 --> 00:27:21,540
- It's so dramatic.
701
00:27:24,309 --> 00:27:26,411
Itching is low-level pain,
and that's a fact.
702
00:27:26,512 --> 00:27:28,280
- That is not a fact.
- That is a fact.
703
00:27:28,380 --> 00:27:30,582
- It's different.
- Look it up!
704
00:27:30,682 --> 00:27:32,618
- It's kind of like
a car crash.
705
00:27:32,718 --> 00:27:34,820
It's gruesome,
but you just can't look away.
706
00:27:34,920 --> 00:27:38,323
- Whenever there is something
wrong, you packed your bags.
707
00:27:38,423 --> 00:27:41,326
And I don't think
what happened was worth that.
708
00:27:41,426 --> 00:27:42,961
- You're trying to rewrite
everything and make it--
709
00:27:43,061 --> 00:27:44,096
- I'm not trying to
rewrite anything.
710
00:27:44,196 --> 00:27:45,697
- Seem like you
did nothing wrong.
711
00:27:45,797 --> 00:27:47,199
- This time,
you can pack your bags,
712
00:27:47,299 --> 00:27:49,701
and I won't come up to stop
you. I promise you.
713
00:27:49,801 --> 00:27:51,870
- I promise you,
I don't want you to.
714
00:27:51,970 --> 00:27:53,572
I'm gonna need so much therapy
after this.
715
00:27:53,672 --> 00:27:54,840
It's not even funny.
716
00:27:54,940 --> 00:27:57,109
Third time's a charm.
717
00:27:57,209 --> 00:27:59,678
Aaron made it seem
like it was all me.
718
00:27:59,778 --> 00:28:02,848
God forbid he's ever wrong.
719
00:28:02,948 --> 00:28:04,082
That little boy.
720

[cheering]
722
00:28:10,589 --> 00:28:13,926
- All right, well, how does it
feel watching all that back?
723
00:28:14,026 --> 00:28:15,561
- Ooh, that was a lot.
724
00:28:15,661 --> 00:28:17,663
It brought back a lot
of emotions.
725
00:28:17,763 --> 00:28:19,164
It makes me feel a little sad,
726
00:28:19,264 --> 00:28:21,767
because I had this hope
going into it.
727
00:28:21,867 --> 00:28:23,602
And then, like,
seeing the good memories,
728
00:28:23,702 --> 00:28:25,804
it reminds me of
what could have been.
729
00:28:25,904 --> 00:28:29,441
But at the same time,
I just feel, like,
730
00:28:29,541 --> 00:28:32,444
frustrated because of
how challenging it was
731
00:28:32,544 --> 00:28:33,812
and how it ended up.
732
00:28:33,912 --> 00:28:35,614
- Well, Aaron, I'm sure you
got a lot to say as well.
733
00:28:35,714 --> 00:28:37,249
So why don't you come up here
and join us?
734
00:28:37,349 --> 00:28:43,422
[cheering]
735
00:28:43,522 --> 00:28:45,757
Good to see you, brother.
Have a seat.
736
00:28:45,857 --> 00:28:47,459
Well, we just checked in
with Genevieve, obviously,
737
00:28:47,559 --> 00:28:49,228
about her feelings
watching that back.
738
00:28:49,328 --> 00:28:51,196
How about for you?
739
00:28:51,296 --> 00:28:53,532
- Um, yeah, I think I can echo
what she said.
740
00:28:53,632 --> 00:28:57,703
It's honestly
pretty tough to watch.
741
00:28:57,803 --> 00:29:00,772
For me, after leaving
Paradise, despite, like,
742
00:29:00,872 --> 00:29:03,976
the recency bias with
the breakup and everything,
743
00:29:04,076 --> 00:29:06,712
I really just remember
the good things.
744
00:29:06,812 --> 00:29:08,513
So, you know,
watching it back is tough,
745
00:29:08,614 --> 00:29:10,682
especially because,
you know, there are--
746
00:29:10,782 --> 00:29:14,186
obviously, there was, like,
such strong, positive
feelings,
747
00:29:14,286 --> 00:29:16,388
love, you know,
like, real love involved.
748
00:29:16,488 --> 00:29:20,025
And then seeing,
like, those fights,
749
00:29:20,125 --> 00:29:21,193
it's just tough to watch.
750
00:29:21,293 --> 00:29:23,829
- When was the last time
you two spoke?
751
00:29:23,929 --> 00:29:25,464
- That day.
- When we on the beach.
752
00:29:25,564 --> 00:29:27,532
- It was Mexico.
OK, so it's been a minute.
753
00:29:27,633 --> 00:29:29,568
- It's been a long time.
- All right, so Genevieve,
754
00:29:29,668 --> 00:29:32,271
what would you like to say
to Aaron?
755
00:29:32,371 --> 00:29:34,072
- Well, it's nice to see you.
756
00:29:34,172 --> 00:29:35,240
- It's good to see you, too.
757
00:29:35,340 --> 00:29:36,742
- I want to start by saying,
obviously,
758
00:29:36,842 --> 00:29:39,211
I know I made a
lot of mistakes,
759
00:29:39,311 --> 00:29:41,913
and I take full accountability
760
00:29:42,014 --> 00:29:46,285
for being emotionally,
like, reactive
761
00:29:46,385 --> 00:29:51,757
and kind of
how I handled everything.
762
00:29:51,857 --> 00:29:54,893
But I do think it's important
for me to say that
763
00:29:54,993 --> 00:29:58,230
I reacted that way
because of some of the things
764
00:29:58,330 --> 00:30:00,599
that you said
and how you said them.
765
00:30:00,699 --> 00:30:02,634
And I'm not putting
blame on you.
766
00:30:02,734 --> 00:30:05,771
I think we both, like,
had our mistakes.
767
00:30:05,871 --> 00:30:11,109
But I just want to apologize
for my part in that and...
768
00:30:11,209 --> 00:30:15,147
just, I guess, not handling
the tough times better.
769
00:30:15,247 --> 00:30:16,281
- Sure.
770
00:30:16,381 --> 00:30:18,417
And I wanted to stop you
halfway through
771
00:30:18,517 --> 00:30:20,385
because, like, honestly,
I was prideful.
772
00:30:20,485 --> 00:30:21,586
I was foolish.
773
00:30:21,687 --> 00:30:24,423
I was a straight up [bleep]
at times. Like--
774
00:30:24,523 --> 00:30:25,724
[laughter]
775
00:30:25,824 --> 00:30:27,726
No, but seriously,
I was ignorant to your
feelings.
776
00:30:27,826 --> 00:30:30,062
And the thing I want to be
more than anything,
777
00:30:30,162 --> 00:30:32,297
I want to be like a kind,
generous, understanding man.
778
00:30:32,397 --> 00:30:33,298
I want to be that for you.
779
00:30:33,398 --> 00:30:36,001
And, like, looking back,
I realize
780
00:30:36,101 --> 00:30:37,102
I wasn't any of those things.
781
00:30:37,202 --> 00:30:38,370
So, like, for me,
it could have been--
782
00:30:38,470 --> 00:30:40,639
it couldn't have been
more of a failure, right?
783
00:30:40,739 --> 00:30:42,474
And I want to apologize
for that,
784
00:30:42,574 --> 00:30:44,309
like, straight up to you.
I'm sorry, right?
785
00:30:44,409 --> 00:30:45,544
I could have been better.
786
00:30:45,644 --> 00:30:47,479
I could have been better
in every way.
787
00:30:47,579 --> 00:30:49,648

I actually could--

you both so much for being

Thank you also for
being awesome sports, too.

look like after "Paradise"?

this summer.

heart out there.

she met Tyler

after you guys left the beach?
875
00:34:09,848 --> 00:34:11,950
- Obviously,
having the past experience
876
00:34:12,050 --> 00:34:14,452
on "The Bachelorette,"
I was definitely more guarded
877
00:34:14,553 --> 00:34:16,988
just because
I didn't want to get hurt
again.
878

I let my guard down,

is the real thing.

a little bit, go to London.

Then I'm gonna go to Italy."

00:39:58,496 --> 00:39:59,764
- I-- well, it's, like,
1042
00:39:59,864 --> 00:40:03,001
a lot of different thoughts in
my brain right now.
1043
00:40:03,101 --> 00:40:06,104
At the end of the day,
I want you to be happy.
1044
00:40:06,204 --> 00:40:08,406
And I want you to find
a perfect person for you.
1045
00:40:08,506 --> 00:40:10,508
- Yeah.
- And that's what matters,
1046
00:40:10,608 --> 00:40:12,577
and that's important.
1047
00:40:12,677 --> 00:40:14,112
- We're really sorry,
obviously, between the two of
you,
1048
00:40:14,212 --> 00:40:15,380
it didn't work out.
1049
00:40:15,480 --> 00:40:16,748
It really was a beautiful
relationship, though.
1050
00:40:16,848 --> 00:40:18,483
And we wish you both
the best moving forward
1051
00:40:18,583 --> 00:40:21,119
in your own individual
journeys, finding love.
1052
00:40:21,219 --> 00:40:22,520
Danielle,
I want to ask you,
1053
00:40:22,620 --> 00:40:26,557
how has your relationship
with him progressed
1054
00:40:26,658 --> 00:40:28,192
since you left Paradise?
1055
00:40:28,293 --> 00:40:32,430
- [sighs] Well, we decided to
actually end our long-distance
1056
00:40:32,530 --> 00:40:33,731
relationship.
- You did?
1057
00:40:33,831 --> 00:40:35,667
- Mm-hmm.
- How so?
1058
00:40:35,767 --> 00:40:38,102
- Well, I'm moving to Akron.
- Yeah.
1059
00:40:38,202 --> 00:40:39,570
- Really?
1060
00:40:39,671 --> 00:40:40,738
[cheers and applause]
1061
00:40:40,838 --> 00:40:42,140
Moving in?
1062
00:40:42,240 --> 00:40:43,641
- No, not in.
1063
00:40:43,741 --> 00:40:45,109
I'm not ready to--
[laughs]
1064
00:40:45,209 --> 00:40:46,611
- Yeah, yeah.
1065
00:40:46,711 --> 00:40:49,147
- I don't think James would
appreciate, like, a roommate,
1066
00:40:49,247 --> 00:40:50,381
like, right now.
1067
00:40:50,481 --> 00:40:51,883
- You mentioned James.
1068
00:40:51,983 --> 00:40:52,951
- Love that kid.
1069
00:40:53,084 --> 00:40:54,719
- I gotta know,
1070
00:40:54,819 --> 00:40:57,221
has she gotten the chance
to meet James yet?
1071
00:40:57,322 --> 00:40:58,423
- Yeah.
- Really?
1072
00:40:58,523 --> 00:41:00,024
- She's met him
a bunch of times.
1073
00:41:00,124 --> 00:41:02,794
And he's laying on her lap.
1074
00:41:02,894 --> 00:41:05,797
Like, he doesn't
want her to leave.
1075
00:41:05,897 --> 00:41:08,132
She's remarkable with him,
and that's,

00:41:14,572 --> 00:41:19,777
As you think back to your time
at Paradise with this woman
1081
00:41:19,877 --> 00:41:22,880
and you think about
the future together,
1082

final thoughts?

I mean, as you know,
I am just incredibly guarded.

The way you've been able
to be patient with me, and--
1086
00:41:40,198 --> 00:41:42,166
you know, I've only said
"I love you"
1087
00:41:42,266 --> 00:41:45,470
to one person in
my entire life,
1088
00:41:45,570 --> 00:41:47,939

moment between you two.

Danielle, has he told you
he loves you before?
1102
00:42:17,201 --> 00:42:18,302
- No.
1103
00:42:18,403 --> 00:42:20,838
It, like, fell out
of my mouth one day.
1104
00:42:20,938 --> 00:42:23,374
I was like,
"OK, bye. Love you."

look back at him.

- Yeah.
1110
00:42:32,283 --> 00:42:33,518
- Well, now you're free
to tell each other
1111
00:42:33,618 --> 00:42:35,353
you love each other
as often as you want.
1112

- The floodgates have opened.
1113

- I love you, too.

00:42:38,122 --> 00:42:40,925
- Thank you so much for
that amazing, sweet moment.

You're both such good people.

Are we in for a double

Or are we in for
a surprise wedding?

And yes, we will address
all the rumors

from the moment

Johnny and Victoria were both

when they both
arrived in Paradise,

to do anything.

but this is something

month of being engaged,

not good enough for her.

But if I really did,
1550
00:59:40,644 --> 00:59:41,845

hey, just so you know,

there's a lot
about to come out.

00:59:46,283 --> 00:59:48,718
And I am in a full-blown
relationship with the man
1554
00:59:48,819 --> 00:59:50,387
that I told you
I was not into.
1555
00:59:50,487 --> 00:59:52,589
- I wasn't in a
full-blown relationship.
1556

You want this narrative to
play out so bad because you
don't

- I do take accountability.

- For what happened
in our relationship.
1559

- This sucks.

- That's what I'm
trying to figure out.
1564
01:00:09,306 --> 01:00:11,141
- Exactly.
And do you think that, like,

01:00:11,241 --> 01:00:13,276
being engaged to somebody
and being called the names
1566
01:00:13,376 --> 01:00:16,012
that you've said to me
is, like--
1567
01:00:18,048 --> 01:00:20,684
- I can tell that this
is really emotional.
1568

It's obviously very tough
for the two of you.

ask you, though.

being said on social media.

I are together.

out there that you started
1576

dating while you were
still engaged to Johnny?
1577
01:00:44,207 --> 01:00:46,743
- Absolutely not.
- But to be clear,

01:00:46,843 --> 01:00:49,212
you did not cheat
on Johnny with Greg?
1579

Absolutely not.
