After what felt like an eternity (two years, to be exact!), *Bachelor in Paradise* has made its grand return for Season 10, and already, we’re witnessing some serious sparks fly! ✨ One of the standout couples to keep an eye on this season is Jessica Edwards, who caught our hearts on Joey Graziadei’s season of *The Bachelor*, and Spencer Conley from Jenn Tran’s season of *The Bachelorette*. Are you as excited as I am to see how this unfolds? 💬
The First Meeting: A Match Made in Paradise
In the premiere episode, Spencer eagerly offered to show Jessica around the stunning Costa Rican hotel where they’re filming. And let me tell you, she was all in! “I did have my sights set on him coming into this,” Jess revealed, practically glowing in her confessional. It’s clear Spencer was already at the top of her list before she even set foot on the island. Who else thinks this is such a romantic start? 🌴💖
But it turns out their connection didn’t happen by chance. Jess let slip during an interview with *Parade* that she had been eyeing Spencer long before arriving in paradise. Can you believe it? “I followed him on Instagram while Jenn’s season was airing because I thought he was cute,” she admitted. And yes, she even slid into his DMs a couple of times! “Cute dog,” or “Oh my gosh, I need to make that recipe!”—such relatable moves, right? 😂
This intentionality really shows how Jess was ready to make her move. “He was on my radar already, so seeing him there, I was just so excited,” she said. She had a plan to talk to him on day one and figured a tour would be the perfect icebreaker. Talk about confidence! Do you think you could be that bold?
A Date with Sam: Not Quite the Right Fit
Even though her first date was with Sam McKinney, who joined the cast a bit later, Jess’s heart seemed to still belong to Spencer. Spoiler alert: Sam didn’t stick around for long, getting sent home in the first episode. During her chat with *Parade*, Jess opened up about her date with him. She said he was a bit too “reserved” for her taste. Can you relate to feeling that spark—or lack thereof—with someone? 🔥
Jess reflected, “I was definitely comparing and contrasting,” and it’s easy to see why. The connection she felt with Spencer was simply on another level. “At the end of the day, my connection with Spencer was just so much stronger.” It’s always interesting to hear how people gauge their feelings, right? What do you think makes a connection truly special?
What Lies Ahead for Jess and Spencer?
As we dive deeper into this season, I can’t help but wonder what’s next for these two lovebirds. Will they navigate the challenges of paradise together, or will the drama of the show pull them apart? With Jess already so invested, the stakes are high, and I’m here for it! 💕✨
