These are the top couples from The Bachelor and The Bachelorette accused of “faking it” for the fame and fortune.
Chris and Whitney
As soon as Chris Soules decided to go from The Bachelor to Dancing with the Stars, rumors cropped up that he was only still engaged to Whitney Bischoff for the fame. Unfortunately, the couple didn’t last much longer after that.
Juan Pablo and Nikki
Widely known as the worst Bachelor in the history of the show, it’s no wonder fans have speculated about Juan Pablo Galavis’ incincere motive. “Es OK” though, because Nikki Ferrell has moved on and is now happily engaged to another man while Galavis reportedly has his eye on the next Bachelorette.
Brad and Emily
After failing to pick a woman during his first run as The Bachelor, Brad Womack returned to the Bachelor scene to try again. This time, he did reportedly find love with Emily Maynard, but his indecisive past meant their future was plagued with uncertain rumors. But it looks like the rumors may have been right since this couple split after a short engagement.
Courtney and Ben
Courtney Robertson was seen as the villain when she went on the show during Ben Flajnik’s season of The Bachelor. And though Flajnik chose Robertson as his final lady, the two later had a messy breakup and Robertson wrote a tell-all book, making some think she was just in it for the fame all along.
Desiree and Chris
It seemed when Desiree Hartsock first chose Chris Siegfried during her season of The Bachelorette that it was all just for the sake of a proposal at the end. After all, Hartsock had her heart broken by the man she thought was “the one,” Brooks Forester, just days before Siegfried proposed. But now that Hartsock and Siegfried are happily married, it seems like for once there wasn’t any truth in the gossip.
Josh and Andi
While their entire relationship definitely wasn’t fake if Andi Dorfman’s tears were any indication, the couple was seen just days before their split at The Bachelor Season 19 premiere looking like a cozy, happy couple. There’s no way that all was actually well in that paradise since they split so suddenly after.
Samantha and Nick
Samantha Steffen and Nick Peterson reportedly fell in love on Bachelor in Paradise, but their behavior before the show is what had fans raising an eyebrow. The two had reportedly started talking on Twitter before even making it on the show. But Peterson wasn’t the only contestant Steffen was online flirting with. She also had her eye on Joe Bailey, which made the whole situation seem super sketchy.
Tenley and Josh
Though Tenley Molzahn and Josh Albers seemed more sincere than Steffen and Peterson, who were on the same season of Bachelor in Paradise, Molzahn and Albers still faced their fair share of criticism. Molzahn has supposedly dated around the Bachelor block and this time the relationship was apparently just for show.
Kaitlyn and Shawn
Kaitlyn Bristowe and Shawn Booth’s lucrative post-Bachelor sponsorships on social media have led their relationship to be the most questioned in Bachelor history. Though the couple continues to insist their love is real, they haven’t really solidified wedding plans, all while the Instagram promotions have continued to flourish.
