Bachelor In Paradise Season 10 Reunion Promises Explosive Drama — How To Watch And What To Know
Bachelor In Paradise Season 10 is closing out with a reunion that promises messy drama, big reveals, and more than a few regrets.
Paradise is getting a reunion... just not on ABC. If you were expecting a classic After the Final Rose moment with a studio audience and Jesse Palmer steering the ship, think again. This one is going off-road in a very Bachelor Nation way.
How to watch it (yep, it is a podcast)
ABC did confirm a Season 10 reunion, but it is not airing on ABC. Instead, they are packaging it as two special episodes of the Bachelor Happy Hour podcast under the Bachelor in Paradise Unplugged banner, hosted by Wells Adams. Jesse Palmer remains the face of the franchise, but Wells is taking the reunion mic here.
Release plan is a little funky, so here is the timeline cleaned up:
The first episode drops Wednesday, September 3 at 11 p.m. PT / 2 a.m. ET, with part two arriving Friday, September 5. If you would rather watch than listen, both episodes will also be posted to the Bachelor Happy Hour YouTube channel on Saturday, September 6.
Who is actually invited
Not everyone from Season 10 made the cut. ABC says the reunion focuses on couples from the back half of the season. The lineup includes:
- Dale Moss
- Kat Izzo
- Spencer Conley
- Jess Edwards
- Brian Autz
- Parisa Shifteh
- Bailey Brown
- Jeremy Simon
- Jonathon Johnson
- Lea Cayanan
- Kathy Swarts
- Keith Gordon
- Allyshia Gupta
- Sean McLaughlin
- Andrew Spencer
- Alexe Godin
What to expect
This franchise does not always do reunions for Paradise, but when it does, the sparks usually fly. Exhibit A: the Season 8 blowup where Victoria Fuller revealed she was dating Bachelorette alum Greg Grippo after getting engaged to Johnny DePhillipo on the beach. So yes, there is precedent for chaos.
For Season 10, the cast is set to unpack the messiest and most talked-about moments from the season and give updates on where things stand now. Given how much of this season leaned into game-ified money stakes instead of strictly love-story vibes, expect that to come up too. Fans have not been quiet about how that shift landed.
Fans on the podcast pivot
The reception to a podcast-based reunion has been... frosty. Some viewers want a visual, studio-energy blowout. Others are frustrated specific players tied to the season’s bigger storylines are not involved. Susie being a key part of the Jeremy/Bailey saga came up a lot, as did people wishing Jill, Kim, and Faith were on the guest list.
'A podcast? A PODCAST? This won't even have a studio audience. What bulls**t'
Not subtle, but it sums up the mood.
Dates to circle
The Bachelor in Paradise Season 10 finale airs Tuesday, September 2. Then the reunion arrives in two parts: audio on Wednesday, September 3 and Friday, September 5, with both video versions landing on the Bachelor Happy Hour YouTube channel Saturday, September 6.
