“Bachelor in Paradise” Season 10 is officially underway, with the premiere beginning at 8 p.m. ET on ABC. Instead of heading to Mexico, the show is filmed in Costa Rica this year.
Spencer Conley from Jenn Tran’s season of “The Bachelorette” was the first to arrive, followed by Alexe-Anne Godin from Grant Ellis’s season of “The Bachelor.”
Lexi Young from Joey Graziadei’s season of “The Bachelor” was the third to enter. Next was Jeremy Simon from Tran’s season, who was joined by fellow season 21 contestant Jonathon Johnson. Bailey Brown came in swinging, showing off a new hairstyle after rocking the bob for Season 29.
Hakeem Moulton from Tran’s season was next, and then Jess Edwards from Joey Graziadei’s season of “The Bachelor” arrived on a boat. She admitted that she has her eyes on Spencer, and he admitted that she certainly grabbed his attention immediately.
Kyle Howard arrived, who was on Katie Thurston’s season of “The Bachelorette.”
Zoe McGrady followed behind from Ellis’s season, and then Ricky Marinez from Tran’s season arrived next. Brian Autz from Tran’s season then walked in.
Kat Izzo, who was on season 9 of “Bachelor in Paradise” and got engaged to John Henry Spurlock, returned to the show for the newest season after she had called off her engagement.
And then… it was host Jesse Palmer’s turn! He introduced Wells Adam as the bartender and Hannah Brown, who will be in charge of paradise relations.
So, let’s get this thing started.
Who Has The Power This Week?
Palmer immediately announced that the girls have the power this week, getting to hand out the roses. And he also teased that the strongest couples at the end of this experience would get something life-changing. But, he wouldn’t reveal what it is just yet.
Oh, and not to mention the new paradise gave the islanders their own rooms with air conditioning, which they didn’t get in Mexico.
But, after Palmer left, another person entered. And it was Justin Glaze, who returned for another season of “Bachelor in Paradise.”
Who Received The First Date Card?
Since he was last to arrive, the first date card went to Justin. He ultimately asked Lexi on a date. However, heavy rain and lightening forced them to cancel the date.
But, it was Jess and Spencer who shared the first kiss of paradise after a very romantic evening talking and getting to know one another.
Hakeem has his eyes set on Bailey and tries to do something special by pulling her for a chat. But, it didn’t have that flirty vibe that other conversations have had. And she admitted that she’s really not interested.
Afterwards, it was time for one more boy to enter. Dale Moss from Claire Crawley’s season of “The Bachelorette” came in on a boat. He definitely caught many of the girls’ eyes. And he also got a date card to kick things off, getting to bring them on the boat that he arrived on. He gave the date card to Kat. But she was having a rough time on the boat, worried she was about to seasick. However, the date was salvaged when they shared a kiss.
At the same time, the others took part in an exercise where they read facts about each other without knowing who was who. With that, they could either put a heart or an x on the board next to it.
That caused some drama between Hakeem and Ricky after he said Hakeem’s sentiments were “vanilla.”
For the final board, it didn’t have a face, but that’s when Sam McKinney from Tran’s season arrived. And as always, he got a date card. He asked Jess to go with him, despite her strong and immediate connection with Spencer. While she admits during the date her mind is on Spencer, she still says that she had fun and felt sparks with Sam too.
Day 3 of Paradise
As the contestants get ready for the first rose ceremony of paradise, Justin finally gets to take Lexi on a date. She is a bit apprehensive because she has spoke on the phone with Justin’s ex-girlfriend Susie, and wants to make sure he is ready to move on.
Meanwhile, there are 10 boys and only six women, so that means four guys will be going home. Bailey is in a bit of a triangle with Jeremy and Kyle, while Jess is in one with Spencer and Sam.
Lexi contemplates her decision because she’s still not sure if she wants to pursue Justin so quickly after his past relationship. She’s reminded by the others that because she has the rose, she can pick someone else she’s interested in. Alexe contemplates her connections with Ricky and Jonathan, but she feels that Rickey showed that he was the most interested. But her decision was still not made.
The Results From The Rose Ceremony
Lexi gives her rose to Justin.
Zoe gives her rose to Brian.
Kat gives her rose to Dale.
Jess gives her rose to Spencer.
Bailey gives her rose to Jeremy.
Alexe gives her rose to Jonathan.
ELIMINATED: Sam, Kyle, Hakeem, Ricky
