Bachelor in Paradise season 10 finale sparks drama and debate

CHICAGO (WLS) — The Season 10 finale of Bachelor in Paradise left fans buzzing with love, heartbreak and plenty of drama. One couple walked away engaged, while others raised questions about their intentions.

Longtime Bachelor Nation follower Pascal Ibgui joined ABC7 in studio to break down the biggest moments and what they could mean for the franchise’s future. He shared his thoughts on standout couples, surprising twists, and who might last in the real world.

This week on “Playing the Field,” Ryan, Jen, and Gina tackle the big “Bachelor in Paradise” finale. The show had a final “pick an envelope” curveball for two lucky couples at the end.

The relationship challenge was a physical one with Alexe and Andrew coming out on top and securing a place at the end.

The contestants had a surprise visit from some old friends, but it didn’t stay friendly. The Parliament of Paradise was tasked with voting to choose a couple, or not, to split the final prize money, if they could pass one last test. Trash talk about Sean and Allycia sent Kat into a tailspin, but Dale kept her calm. Despite that, they were eliminated and Jess and Spencer went to the end.

It didn’t seem like Spencer was concerned at all about the money, he was focused on picking and engagement ring for Jess and professing his love.

The final challenge was choosing love or money. Both couples chose love. Instead of walking away with just their relationships, Jesse gave them the chance to select one of three envelopes with various monetary amounts inside. Alexe and Andrew won $125,000 and Jess and Spencer picked $190,000!

But, the icing on the cake was Jess accepting Spencer’s proposal! Is it even “Paradise” without a proper proposal? Next week, we’ll breakdown all the latest information on where the contestants and couples are now that the show has ended.
