Every Single ‘Bachelor’ and ‘Bachelorette’ Contestant Who Has Dated an Actual Celeb

Mike Johnson and Demi Lovato

Things didn’t work out between Mike Johnson and Bachelorette Hannah Brown, but he managed to find love in the unlikeliest of places: Demi Lovato’s Instagram DMs. Thanks to some extremely thirsty public flirting, Mike and Demi were summer 2019’s briefest celebrity fling.

Mike Johnson and Demi Lovato

Behold: the Instagram Story that started it all. After Demi posted this, it didn’t take long for Mike to start commenting on her bikini pics and eventually ask her out on a date. “I’m just getting to know Demi. I think she’s absolutely fantastic and I don’t want no pressure on her, no pressure on me, we’re just trying to get to know each other. That’s all,” he told E! News. Unfortunately, our dude went on iHeart Radio’s Almost Famous podcast and said Demi “kisses really well.” She understandably ended the relationship. Can’t be dating a guy who kisses and tells!

Tyler Cameron and Gigi Hadid

Fun fact: This summer fling also started on Instagram. Gigi and Tyler started following each other during Hannah Brown’s season of The Bachelorette. In a shocking twist, Tyler was seen leaving Gigi’s apartment just days after he was spotted leaving Hannah’s apartment.

In the course of their brief relationship, Tyler and Gigi went to Lake George on a mini vacation, and she even introduced him to Serena Williams. In other words, things were super serious...until they weren’t.

In early October 2019, Us Weekly sources confirmed that “Tyler is single” and “He and Gigi Hadid are no longer together.”

Tyler Cameron and Stassie Karanikolaou

After his split from Gigi, Tyler reportedly moved on with none other than Kylie Jenner’s BFF, Stassie Karanikolaou. These two were spotted getting super flirty at a Clippers game in late November 2019 and were also seen making out.

“Stassie and Tyler were definitely showing PDA,” a source told E! News. “They stuck by each other’s sides the entire night,” the source added. “Tyler was holding Stassie at one point and they were dancing. They were chatting the entire night, whispering in each other’s ears and Tyler grabbed Stassie’s face at one point for a kiss.”

Wells Adams and Sarah Hyland

Sarah and Wells are one of the only Bachelor Nation x celebrity success stories on this list and, honestly, they’re pretty damn cute. Their relationship is all thanks to the wonders of social media. Basically, Sarah made it more than clear that she was horny for Wells while watching him on TV in July 2016.

Wells Adams and Sarah Hyland

Behold: the tweets that started it all. Before long, these two were spotted hanging in the same place and doing couples’ Halloween together. They even spent Thanksgiving and Christmas 2017 with each other, so, yeah, things got serious faster than you can say “right reasons.”

Wells Adams and Sarah Hyland

ICYMI, Sarah and Wells spent the next few years being insanely adorable on social media. Like, can we please talk about this anniversary post Wells dedicated to Sarah, where he talks about the first time they said, “I love you?”

Wells Adams and Sarah Hyland

Flash-forward to summer ’19 when Wells surprised Sarah with a proposal while they were on vacation. Like, not even Chris Harrison could scheme a cuter engagement and he does this for a damn living.

Nick Viall and Rachel Bilson

First of all, this is not the only time Bachelorette alum Nick Viall has been linked to a celebrity, so stay tuned! A bunch of Bachelor Nation fans think he’s currently dating Rachel Bilson thanks to—you guessed it—some super flirty Instagram comments.

Nick Viall and Rachel Bilson

Let’s see, first we have this joke about Nick sliding into Rachel’s DMs....

Nick Viall and Rachel Bilson

...Then there’s this one where Nick complimented Rachel on her “nice foliage,” ahem.

Nick Viall and Rachel Bilson

...And finally, there’s this one where Nick casually complimented Rachel’s dress. There's lots of evidence, but back in September when Rachel was asked about whether or not she’s dating Nick, she replied, “I don’t want to talk about it.” Meanwhile, he cryptically told People, “I’m not really defining any relationships these days.” Now she's dating Bill Hader.

Nick Viall and January Jones

Who would have thought these two would end up together? Answer: no one, and they didn’t. But Nick and January were rumored to be dating late 2016/early 2017 all because of a fated appearance she made on The Late Late Show with James Corden.

Nick Viall and January Jones

Watch On

During said appearance, January revealed that Nick, who she’d been crushing on, had reached out to her. “You don’t know if you like him or if he’s a scumbag—and I think that’s why I’m attracted to him, maybe?” she said. “He asked me to battle him on Lip Sync Battle. So is that, like, his way of asking me out, or does he have a problem with me? I don’t know what that was. But I declined, because I don’t need to be humiliated.”

A source told Page Six that Nick asked January out shortly after this clip aired, so yeah. Dude’s got game.

Nick Viall and January Jones

But did they end up dating? Unclear. In January, January (lol) left this flirty comment on Nick’s Instagram, but in February she told Entertainment Tonight, “He’s a friend of mine. He’s super sweet. No, I’m single. But he’s a friend of mine and tells me lots of inside scoops.”

Courtney Robertson and Jesse Metcalfe

Bachelor season 16 star Courtney Robertson dated Desperate Housewives actor Jesse Metcalfe in 2004 and dished about it in her flawlessly titled book, I Didn’t Come Here to Make Friends: Confessions of a Reality Show Villain. “I wish I could say that we were the greatest lovers since Christian Grey and Ana Steele,” Courtney wrote in perhaps the most scathing shade of all time. “But I can’t lie. The sex was pretty average. Jesse needed a lot of reassurance.” OMG.

Courtney Robertson and Jesse Metcalfe

If you’re wondering how Jesse felt about Robertson basically accusing him of sucking at sex, he simply told Huffington Post Live, “I don’t want to help her writing career more than I already have.” He also savagely said, “I’ve dated in the past some very beautiful women that weren’t so smart, and it didn’t really keep my attention.”

Courtney Robertson and Adrian Grenier

Jesse is far from the only celebrity Courtney spilled tea on in her book I Didn’t Come Here to Make Friends: Confessions of a Reality Show Villain. She also claimed to have met actor Adrian Grenier at an Oscars party, and said they bonded over “mutual loneliness in L.A.” More importantly, she wrote the following words that are forever etched in my brain: “He had the biggest penis I’d ever seen—and the biggest bush!”

Courtney Robertson and Adrian Grenier

Adrian reacted to Courtney’s comment during an appearance on Watch What Happens Live and said, “I was just glad she got the size right. And she’s seen a couple of them, huh.”

Courtney Robertson and Gerard Butler

Sorry, not done with Courtney yet. She was also deeply shady about actor Gerard Butler in I Didn’t Come Here to Make Friends: Confessions of a Reality Show Villain and called him “horny.” Direct, extremely amazing quote: “He texted me in the middle of the day. I realized I’d be giving up [a modeling fee worth $20k] to spend a few hours with a horny movie star. I went to work.”

Courtney Robertson and Her New Man

By the way, Courtney is now in a relationship with this not-famous silver fox, so she’s definitely moved on from dating celebs.

Ben Flajnik and...Kris Jenner

I’ll give you a moment to process because this pairing is truly weird. Momager Kris Jenner and Bachelor Ben’s alleged romance went down in 2013 when she was spotted visiting his winery with pal Jonathan Cheban.

Ben Flajnik and Kris Jenner

See, look, Kris even posted a photo from this fated hangout sesh to Instagram. A month later, she and Ben were seen at a Kanye West concert together, so naturally the internet started assuming! Some! Things!

Ben Flajnik and Kris Jenner

On top of all that, Kris trolled everyone with this photo of her, Ben, and a friend with the caption “date night.” So...were they dating? Probably not, considering Kris’s sister Karen allegedly told In Touch, “I texted her about Ben the Bachelor the other day and asked if they were dating. She said it was more of a business deal.” Well, okay, then.

Colton Underwood and Aly Raisman

Colton actually dated Aly before he appeared on The Bachelorette, but, whatever, it still counts. The pair were introduced by friends during a double date and then hit up a ton of events together—including this basketball game and...

Colton Underwood and Aly Raisman

...the freakin’ Golden Globes! All good things must come to an end though, because Colton confirmed that he and Aly had broken up in June 2017, telling the Lincoln Journal Star, “We’re taking a break right now. We’re still good friends and talk, but all that travel had been a nightmare. It ended fine. We’re in a good place.”

After being dumped by Bachelorette star JoJo Fletcher, Chase McNary rebounded with controversial conservative host Tomi Lahren. The pair first started speculation when they showed up in this Instagram pic looking all kinds of coupled-up.

Chase McNary and Tomi Lahren

...And let’s not forget these flirty vibes on Twitter. But, ultimately, the relationship didn’t work out. Chase told Us Weekly, “We were talking for about two weeks, but we weren’t in the same place, so we went our separate ways. I have nothing bad to say about her. She’s a great girl.”

Ben Flajnik and Jennifer Love Hewitt

Yup, he’s back. Apparently, Ben Flajnik briefly dated ’90s icon Jennifer Love Hewitt (they chilled at his winery...much like him and Kris Jenner), but he wasn’t feeling the vibe. “It was right in the middle of the time when I was deciding to be the Bachelor,” Ben said. “When this is all said and done, ending up with a Hollywood celebrity is not something that I want.”

Right, his celeb dating history definitely shows that's the last thing he wants.

Robby Hayes and Scheana Shay

Wow, reality star worlds are truly colliding with this one. Bachelorette reject Robby Hayes and Vanderpump Rules legend Scheana Shay were first rumored to be dating in May 2018 when they were seen vacationing in Hawaii together. Then, Robby showed up on an episode of Vanderpump Rules the following January. The crossover content I crave!

Robby Hayes and Scheana Shay

Scheana seemed pretty into Robby after saying he’s “supportive, he’s reliable, he’s drop-dead gorgeous. I mean, those abs, like, yes, please. He always makes me feel special. If things keep going well, I could definitely see myself falling for him.”

Robby Hayes and Scheana Shay

Surprisingly, the pair were spotted making out as recently as August 2019, but Robby says they’re just friends who like to kiss. “I mean, the make-outs aren’t as often as you think. Like, everyone just catches us in the public areas where that happens. But she’s just cool to hang out with. She’s just a bro.”

Robby Hayes and Lindsie Chrisley

When he isn’t busy making out with Scheana, Robby’s busy dealing with a casual sex scandal. TLDR: Chrisley Knows Best star Todd Chrisley accused his estranged daughter, Lindsie, of having an affair with our dude while she was married to Will Campbell. The accusations came after Lindsie filed a police report stating that her dad and stepbrother were “threatening and harassing her” and planned to extort her with a sex tape.

Robby Hayes and Lindsie Chrisley

TMZ reported that Robby was the person on the alleged sex tape and that he submitted “a slew of evidence” to the U.S. Attorney’s office, including “text messages and other correspondence.” Meanwhile, he said, “We did not make a sex tape. I’m not sitting there with a camera...like, we got caught on the security camera, basically. It was a puppy camera in her friend’s living room.”

Josh Murray and Lindsie Chrisley

Fun update: Robby Hayes wasn’t the only former Bachelorette star to date Lindsie Chrisley and get involved in her sex tape scandal because Todd Chrisley also accused Josh Murray of having an affair with Lindsie during her marriage.

Josh ended up releasing the shadiest statement ever: “I know Todd and his family are going through some tough times right now and I pray everything works out in their favor. They should probably focus on how not to be imprisoned for 30 years rather than spreading gossip to try and hurt their daughter. I truly believe they are good people and I wish them the best in however they choose to go about their actions.”

Michelle Money and Mike Weir

After splitting from Marriage Bootcamp: Reality Stars costar Cody Sattler (wow, we’re already off to an incredible start), Bachelor alum Michelle Money hooked up with golfer Mike Weir—who totally counts as a celebrity, how dare you.

Michelle Money and Mike Weir

The pair went official when Michelle posted this cute pic on Instagram. This story has a happy ending—Michelle and Mike are still together today! “I am so grateful for this man today and every day,” she said last summer. “A lot of you have watched the ups and downs of my journey and I can tell you there is no greater feeling than being in love with someone you respect 100 percent, who also respects you the same way.”

Chad Johnson and Zoe Baron

I know it’s hard to understand why any sane human would date infamous Bachelor in Paradise star Chad Johnson after witnessing his awful behavior, but maybe model Zoe Baron didn’t watch the show? Either way, these two dated in 2017 after Zoe reached out to Chad via his business email and asked him “how to get in shape.” Romantic!

Chad Johnson and Zoe Baron

“We actually just met up at a big seafood place and just had some drinks and linguine,” Chad told Entertainment Tonight. “On a scale from 1 to happy, I’m totally happy.” Oh, and he also added that they hadn’t said, “I love you,” but had said “luv” in texts. I know this is shocking, but spoiler: This relationship didn’t last.

Lucy Aragon and Evan Spiegel

Anyone remember Lucy from The Bachelor? How could you forget given that her occupation was quite literally “free spirit.” Yeah, well, apparently she and Snapchat CEO Evan Spiegel dated in 2013. Lucy was pretty extra about it and tweeted, “My boyfriend @evanspiegel has more twitter followers than me. What is happening to the world?!”

Lucy Aragon and Evan Spiegel

The relationship didn’t seem to have lasted because nowadays the dude pictured here is all up on Lucy’s feed—and by “dude” I mean James Williams, CEO of Mayweather Boxing + Fitness. Evan is now married to a little-known model named Miranda Kerr.

Amanda Stanton and Brendan Fitzpatrick

Bachelor in Paradise alum Amanda Stanton and Rich Kids of Beverly Hills star Brendan Fitzpatrick were linked back in October after TMZ spotted them having a romantic-looking lunch together. But! It seems like this one was purely a rumor because both Amanda and Brendan have denied claims that they dated.

Amanda Stanton and Brendan Fitzpatrick

“Amanda and I are just friends, actually,” Brendan told TooFab. “I think you guys just saw us at lunch once.” Meanwhile, Amanda confirmed she was single back in early November.

Lauren Bushnell and Chris Lane

As any card-carrying member of Bachelor Nation can tell you, Lauren Bushnell’s relationship with Bachelor Ben Higgins didn't exactly work out. She did, however, find love with country singer Chris Lane. Sure they were friends before they were a couple, but their relationship was truly a whirlwind.

Lauren Bushnell and Chris Lane

These two got engaged in June 2018 after less than a year of going public with their relationship in November 2018. Then they got married in October 2019. “I knew she wouldn’t want some elaborate crazy proposal,” Chris told People. “So I decided to keep it pretty casual. I asked her parents for different places in Portland I could potentially take her to, but after a lot of thought, I decided doing it at the family cookout would be the most laidback setting and that she’d appreciate the simplicity of me proposing to her in her parents’ backyard.” Sweet!
