Bachelor in Paradise threw a wrench into some couples’ happily ever after with the season 10 elimination twist.
In previous iterations of the Bachelor spinoff, pairs have been able to freely explore their connection until the finale when some contestants (think: Jade Roper and Tanner Tolbert) decided to leave the show engaged. This season, however, contestants are voted off by their peers amid the competition for a $500,000 cash prize.
While some couples have continued to explore their connection offscreen, other former contestants found their way to each other without the cameras. Alli Jo Hinkes and Sam McKinney, for example, hard-launched their relationship on social media in July after missing each other in Costa Rica.
“Sometimes… You just gotta do it your damn self,” the couple captioned a joint Instagram post at the time, sharing a series of PDA-filled photos. “Be a force and #StayRelentless.”

Leslie Fhima and Gary Levingston

When Leslie and Gary were eliminated from the show, they kept smiles on their faces and walked out holding hands. “Her and I will continue to move forward with our journey, just in a different way,” Gary said in a confessional.
Leslie later shared during an episode of the “Bachelor Happy Hour” podcast that she and Gary “talk all the time.” She added, “We were at the premiere together watching the show in L.A. Gary is, I can honestly say right now, one of my best friends. I’ll call him if I have a problem. He kind of talks me off the ledge a little bit, and we are always there for each other. We have each other’s back.”
Leslie noted that she doesn’t know “what it could be,” but wants to be friends with any romantic partner first. “We have special places in our hearts for each other, and that’s all I can say right now,” she said.
Faith Martin and Kim Buike

Faith and Kim may have been sent home from Bachelor in Paradise early, but the pair continued their relationship outside of Costa Rica. In an Instagram video shared after their elimination, Faith and Kim harmonized together as he kissed her neck. “Good times with family and sweet new friends! #liveyourbestlife,” she captioned the post. Kim, meanwhile, has shared fan edits of the pair’s love story to his social media page.
Allyshia Gupta and Sean McLaughlin

Allyshia and Sean ended their journey in Paradise when they sent themselves home, but have continued to maintain a bond after the show.
“Sean and I are on great terms. We like to have fun with it. It was fun for us. I mean, obviously there’s highs and lows of the whole experience, but at the end of the day, the relationships you walk away with are the best parts,” Allyshia exclusively told Us Weekly, calling her relationship with Sean “fantastic” and adding that “things are great.”
Parisa Shifteh and Brian Autz

Parisa and Brian were eliminated by their fellow contestants, leaving the rose ceremony hand in hand. Brian said in a confessional that the pair were “excited for the future.” It is unclear whether they are still together.
