'Bachelor in Paradise' couple Jeremy Simon and Bailey Taylor Brown taking next step in relationship
Bachelor in Paradise couple Jeremy Simon and Bailey Taylor Brown have announced that they're taking their relationship to the next level.
Jeremy and Bailey endured a lot of ups and downs during their time on Bachelor in Paradise's tenth season, but when they got voted out by their peers prior to the finale, they left as a strong couple.
In a finale update, ABC revealed on September 2, "Jeremy and Bailey have met each other's families. They're making plans to call the same city home later this year. [Susie Evans] who?"
Jeremy -- who lives in New York, and Bailey, who currently resides in Atlanta, GA -- opened up about what happened after the show during Part 1 of the Bachelor in Paradise cast reunion.
"We definitely restarted our relationship. I think we were really happy with the foundation and things that we really got to know about each other in Paradise," Bailey shared with host Wells Adams during the September 4 episode of the "Bachelor Happy Hour" podcast.
"I feel like we've honestly spent so much time with each other this summer, just traveling back and forth. And we went to Portugal; he met my mom and my sister over there. We traveled around a little bit."
But Bailey shared how she's actually "been in New York for the majority" of the summer.
"I think a lot of people that posted spoilers can attest to that," Bailey quipped.
"So that's been fun. We've been trying to do the disguise thing, but you can only wear a wig so much before your wig gives out. So I just feel like we've really loved being with each other every day."
Bailey went on to tease how she and Jeremy "definitely have some exciting plans" in store.
"For later this year," Bailey began.
"She's moving in with me," Jeremy revealed.
"Yeah!" Bailey confirmed.
Bailey gushed about how she and Jeremy "are in a really good place" and are "really happy with each other" post-show.
"We've been meeting family, and I think that's all you can really ask for. [We've] met friends. He's met all of my best friends," Bailey continued.
"And I'm meeting his best friends, so yeah, we're really happy."
Jeremy paired up with Bailey for the first few days of Bachelor in Paradise's tenth season.
But then Jeremy enjoyed a great date with Susie and seemed torn between the two women.
After making a difficult decision, Jeremy ended up giving Bailey his rose at the subsequent Rose Ceremony, resulting in Susie's early and unexpected elimination.
Once Susie was gone, Jeremy thought he and Bailey were all in, but then Bailey accepted a date with Andrew Spencer.
Bailey's decision made Jeremy spiral and question everything, and so he called Susie on the phone and begged her to return to Paradise so they could give their romance another shot.
Susie, clearly feeling emotionally depleted after her reunion with ex-boyfriend Justin Glaze on the show, declined Jeremy's offer.
Since Bailey ran back into Jeremy's arms after her date with Andrew, Jeremy seemed to focus his attention on Bailey and resume dating her.
However, Jeremy continued to miss Susie and mention her frequently to his friends, according to Bachelor in Paradise footage. At one point, he said he regretted giving Bailey his rose.
Bachelor in Paradise’s Jade Roper Marks 2 Years Since Missed Miscarriage
Bachelor in Paradise star Jade Roper is marking a somber anniversary.
“Two years since my D&C. Two years without you sweet Beau,” the reality TV star wrote via Instagram on Saturday, September 6, referring to a dilation and curettage, a procedure in which the cervix is dilated in order to remove tissue from inside the uterus. (The procedure is commonly used for abortions and to treat missed or incomplete miscarriages.)
“Grief is quieter now, but it’s still here, woven into who I am,” Roper continued. “Remembering the baby I never got to hold, yet still hold in my heart.”
Roper included several photos in the post, including a picture of her cradling her then-pregnant stomach and a snapshot of an ultrasound. Roper also shared a picture of herself in a hospital, a small, blue, heart-shaped cake with the name “Beau” written in icing, and a photo of her hands on her stomach as she appeared to be laying in bed.
In August 2023, Roper announced she was expecting her fourth child with husband Tanner Tolbert when she experienced a pregnancy loss.
“I’ve been struggling what to write here as I’ve been navigating a miscarriage,” she wrote via Instagram at the time. “It felt like all my dreams were coming true to welcome another baby into our lives, to love and to complete our family. While our hearts are completely broken and we have been dealing with the deep and complex grief of the loss, we have been blessed to be touched by his soul or his short amount of time. I am forever changed.”
She continued, I’m currently experiencing what is called a missed miscarriage, so while his heart has stopped and he has stopped growing (for some time now), my body hasn’t released the pregnancy yet. I am hoping to do this naturally and am trusting in timing and in my body under the care of my provider.”
Roper went on to write that she had been carrying the pregnancy “with so much pride and cherish every moment still left with part of him,” adding that “it has also been equally as challenging and devastating.”
