Bless Your Heart

Living out loud in the Carolinas

BBs this week is all about desperation! Let’s dive in!

We start off with poor Jonathon hoping to get a rose from our Golden April! It’s the Ladies’ turn to have the roses this week and Jonathon is not coupled up. I’m so shocked by this. He is cute as can be and seems so nice! What am I missing??

Everyone gets in the pool for some water aerobics led by Leslie. RJ and Natascha are hitting it off really well. Then Golden Gary arrives and everyone is so excited!

Kathy’s birthday is today so she does a body shot off CK!!! It’s too funny!!!

Dale and Kat are going strong (he thinks) but she says she wouldn’t mind it if a cute guy came to Paradise! Kat asks Dale if he kissed anyone outside of the kissing booth. He’s quiet for a long minute then admits he kissed Alli Jo. But in his mind, since he didn’t see a future with Alli Jo, he deaded it (he says). So Dale tells Kat she needs to move past the kiss, that it wasn’t a big deal.

Gary chooses Leslie for his date and they go dancing. It starts pouring rain but they keep dancing in the rain. They are having a great time! Then they have some wine and chat and they are getting along great. They dance some more.

Later Gary and Leslie head back to the resort for the pre Rose Ceremony cocktail party. 3 men will be going home tonight.

Alexe and Andrew are really hitting it off. They are super cute together. Jack is worried he’s going home. Kim tells April “my feelings for you aren’t super strong” and friend zones her. So April goes and talks to Jack who then grabs her and shoves his tongue down her throat! That was some serious entertainment for everyone!

Meanwhile, Jonathon is desperate for a rose.

Kat sits Dale down again to hash out the Alli Jo kiss. Kat’s issue is that they had an agreement that they’d tell each other if they kissed anyone else, and Dale never told her until she asked. Dale keeps interrupting Kat and isn’t seeing her point. He keeps saying “But I deaded it” over and over. They walk away annoyed. Jonathon sees an opportunity and grabs Kat for a chat thinking he could get her rose.

Rose Ceremony

Parisa gives her rose to Brian. I’d totally forgotten about them! We didn’t see them all episode.

Bailey gives her rose to Jeremy. Alexe to Andrew. Natascha to Gary!!! What??? This is throwing everything off! Natascha and RJ were really getting along and talking. Plus, Gary has his eye on Leslie!

So then it’s Leslie’s turn. She’s scrambling because she was going to give her rose to Gary! She picks Kim who thinks she was going to pick him the whole time!

Kathy gives her rose to Keith. Jess to Spencer. Jill to Sean (I’m so happy to see they are still talking and getting along.

Kat gives her rose to Dale. Ugh. He’s so cute but dang is he annoying!!!

April has the final rose of the night. She gives it to….. Jonathon!!! Crossing generational lines! April says to him “I want you to have another chance to be valued.” That’s so sweet!

Going home: RJ (sad!), Jack, and CK.

Afterwards everyone goes back to the bar area to chat. Kat and Dale are still bickering and Dale keeps saying “We just come from different backgrounds.” They go their separate ways to go to their rooms to bed. Kat’s crying and Dale’s annoyed.

The next day is Day 9 of Paradise. Only day 9!!! Wild.

At breakfast Gary and Leslie are deep in conversation. Natascha comes over to try and squeeze in but she says Gary is icing her out. Kim isn’t happy about Gary stealing “his” girl. Kim writes Leslie a poem and reads it to her. It’s all about Leslie giving Kim her rose. Leslie instantly puts Kim in the friend zone.

Lea and Golden Nancy arrive and all the Golden men go wild for Nancy!!! Keith tells Nancy he does NOT have romantic feelings for Kathy. Uh oh. Kathy thinks Keith is on lock. Lea pulls Sean to chat and Jill is NOT happy about that. Then Golden Faith arrives on a horse!!!

And BBs, that’s it for this week! Next week looks wild! And apparently there are big changes coming- like the chance for one couple to win a ton of money!!!

Until next week, xo 🌹
