The women of Bachelor in Paradise season 10 are addressing where they stand with their partners as they continue to vie for a $500,000 cash prize.
“I just wanted to know kind of how y’all are feeling about everything as it’s getting closer and closer,” Hannah Brown, who’s serving as Paradise Relations, said in Us Weekly’s exclusive sneak peek of the Monday, August 25, episode. “I mean, it is still Bachelor in Paradise and there is typically an engagement at the end.”
As the women gathered in a circle on the beaches of Costa Rica, Alexe Godin first gushed over her connection with Andrew Spencer.
“For me, I’ve always said I want to find a true best friend,” Alexe, 28, said. “With Andrew, I don’t know, it just feels like the puzzle that fits right. I’m just so proud to be by his side. I’m like, ‘Wow, that’s my guy.’”

Bailey Brown, meanwhile, acknowledged that her and Jeremy Simon’s time on the Bachelor spinoff has not been the smoothest sailing. (Jeremy, 31, asked producers to call Susie Evans and ask her to come back to the show after her elimination, which Bailey recently found out about thanks to Brian Autz.)
“We’ve been through a lot of stuff while we’ve been here, but I also feel like it’s making us stronger every single day,” Bailey, 28, said. “It’s really nice.”
When asked how she’s feeling about her connection with Spencer Conley, Jess Edwards gushed that she’s never felt this way toward anyone before.
“I’ve just never been with someone who makes me feel so stable,” Jess, 26, said, before looking away from the group as she became emotional. “I don’t want to say yes to someone if I don’t fully know if I’m for sure in love with them.”
In a confessional, Jess elaborated that she does “trust” Spencer, 32, “so much,” adding, “It’s just scary.”
Jess and Spencer have given each other their roses each week on season 10. Ahead of the show filming, Jess exclusively told Us that she had “been really good” at avoiding relationships before Bachelor in Paradise — and had her eye on one person.
“There’s been a little story ‘likes’ here and there. … But nothing, like, flirty or ‘see you there’ wink, wink. Nothing like that,” she said. “There’s a few people that I do want to meet here. My No. 1 is definitely Spencer from Jenn [Tran]’s season. The golden retriever energy, he’s so cute.”
Bachelor in Paradise airs on ABC Mondays at 8 p.m. ET.
