On Episode 5, streaming now on the ABC app and Hulu, the women got their first rose ceremony, where they decided who they wanted to couple with for now. That rose ceremony featured a few expected couples (Joe and Serena, Abigail and Noah), a few unexpected pics (Deandra and Ivan?!) and of course a few broken-hearted men who were then eliminated.
Even before the rose ceremony, however, the episode saw one man decide to leave Paradise
Who Left on ‘Bachelor in Paradise’ Season 7, Episode 5?
Tré Cooper
Before we even get to the rose ceremony, Tré from Katie’s season has decided he is done with Paradise. Or more specifically, he is done with Tahzjuan.
“I don’t feel that we are right for each other,” he said to her. “You were somebody that I really saw… something to build with, and now that that’s kind of come for a close, it’s time for me to go.”
Rather than simply wait for another eligible woman to enter the show (as they do with regularity), Tré decided his Bachelor in Paradise journey was over.
Tahzjuan Hawkins
Shortly after Tré says bye-bye to the beach, his one-time partner is also out.
Despite her many struggles with the heat, Tahz made it to week 3 on her first time on BiP. This time, she quit at the end of week 2 , shortly after the first Bachelorette ever to star on the show Becca Kufrin hit the beach.
With the Tazh Tornado on its way home, that means one less rose for the remaining men.
Who Chose Who in the Second Rose Ceremony?
After a stormy week on the beach, with plenty of people moving couples, the girls give their roses to the following:
Natasha Parker to Brendan MoraisMaurissa Gunn (previously paired with Connor Brennan) to Riley ChristianSerena Pitt to Joe AmabileAbigail Heringer to Noah ErbJessenia Cruz (previously paired with Ivan Hall) to Chris ConranTammy Ly (previously paired with Aaron Clancy) to Thomas JacobsDemi Burnett (previously paired with James Bonsall) to Kenny BraaschMari Pepin (previously paired with Ivan) to James BonsallDeandra Kanu (previously paired with Karl Smith) to Ivan Hall (friendship rose)Becca Kufrin to Aaron Clancy
Who Was Eliminated on ‘Bachelor in Paradise’ Season 7, Episode 5?
With all the roses given out, three men remained, all of whom had to leave Paradise:
Connor Brennan, who had been paired with Maurissa before Riley arrived and took her straight to the Boom Boom Room. Karl Smith and Chasen Nick. Both had been fighting for Deandra, with each side using tacky jewelry as their weapons. This did not impress her, however, and she chose to keep Ivan on the beach rather than pick either of them.
Bachelor in Paradise Season 7 continues Mondays and Tuesdays at 8 p.m. ET / 7 p.m. CT on ABC and the next day on Hulu.
