Some of Bachelor Nation’s newest members may be headed to the beach for season 10 of Bachelor in Paradise.
The women of The Bachelor season 29 exclusively told Us Weekly whether they’re interested in continuing their journey for love on Bachelor in Paradise. “I am still looking for love. I am single, if anyone is out there,” Sarafiena Watkins told Us after the Women Tell All taping. “I feel like there has to be people that would entice me to go, I am really serious about finding someone.”
Sarafiena, 29, was sent home ahead of this season’s hometown dates. Even though Grant Ellis wasn’t The One for her, Sarafiena told Us she’d be down to date another member of Bachelor Nation.
“I am just so open,” she shared. “I feel like if there is a good match for me, let me know.”
Where the Cast of Grant Ellis’ Season 29 of ‘The Bachelor’ Stands
Alexe Godin, who was also eliminated ahead of Grant’s hometown dates, told Us that “it would be fun” to join Paradise, even though she’s never watched a “full season” of the Bachelor spinoff. “I have watched a couple of episodes, and it is more my speed,” she stated. “It is a little more lighthearted, more fun, more goofy, and I think that is me. I would have a good time and have [the] potential to meet my future husband there.”
Calling herself a “broken record,” Alexe, 27 admitted that she’s not familiar enough with the men of Bachelor Nation to have her sights set on someone specific in Paradise. Luckily, the fans have a pick in mind for her.
“I keep hearing from people that Jonathon [Johnson] and I would make a cute couple,” she told Us of Jenn Tran’s third place contestant from The Bachelorette season 21. “I went to hug him tonight and he said, ‘Don’t hug too tight, people are going to scream.’ I have heard really good feedback from people that he is a really good guy, so who knows? I keep saying, him and Tanner [Courtad] [are] cute, I think we can all agree.”
Another member of Grant’s Bachelor cast interested in joining the season 10 cast of Paradise is Alli Jo Hinkes, who went home during the third rose ceremony of the season. “If I got asked to do Paradise and I was single at that point of my life … possibly,” she told Us. “We will see.”
Charity Lawson Thinks Grant and Litia Are ‘Strong’ — And Juliana Is ‘Safe’
Dina Lupancu, however, is “not sure” whether Paradise is in the cards for her after a drama-filled season. “Being in the experience again and seeing the girls, it made me miss it,” she said of the Women Tell All taping. “But I don’t know. I also haven’t stalked any of the guys, so I have to do that.”
Dina, 31, was sent home following her hometown date during the show’s March 3 episode, while Juliana Pasquarosa, Litia Garr and Zoe McGrady all advanced to the fantasy suite dates. At the Women Tell All taping, Dina told Us she knew she wasn’t going to make it to Grant’s final three during her hometown date, which her family declined to participate in.
“Something that was hard for me, and I didn’t realize until I lived it, was that when you are waiting for your hometown — and mine was last, there is, like, 7 days [of waiting],” she explained. “Before that was a travel day and then the date in Scotland, we barely got to talk. So you are talking [about] nine days when we didn’t see each other, we didn’t talk, we don’t have our phones, so you don’t have anything to continue to foster that connection.”
She went on to note that it took her “a few weeks” to get over her breakup with Grant.
The Bachelor airs on ABC Mondays at 8 p.m. ET.
