CHRIS RANDONE AND KRYSTAL NIELSON – 8 MONTHS

The roses, as well as the free Neil Lane rings, will be returned. Krystal Nielson and Chris Randone, who met on season five of Bachelor in Paradise and went on to become one of the franchise’s most powerful couples, have “unanimously agreed” to break up after eight months of marriage. Nielson, a fitness coach who participated in Arie Luyendyk Jr.’s season of The Bachelor, and Randone, a sales trainer who pursued Becca Kufrin on The Bachelorette, were both given antagonist roles. They reportedly started dating in 2018, and Randone proposed to her during the final episode. During Paradise’s dramatic sixth season, their marriage was streamed live.

Nielson and Randone are the first married Bachelor Nation couple to be on the verge of divorce. While damaged engagements and break-ups are normal in the business, no other married couple has initiated a separation in its two-decade history until now. Although the two broke up, it seems that they don’t bear any grudges for each other. They have now put investments in their own lives and are working for the betterment of their personalities.
