Bachelor Nation saw fan-favorite couple Jade Roper Tolbert and Tanner Tolbert fall in love and get engaged on the beach during Season 2 of “Bachelor in Paradise.”
Since then, they’ve gotten married and welcomed three children together: Emerson, Brooks, and Reed.
Bachelor Nation also got to see another fan-favorite couple, Raven Gates Gottschalk and Adam Gottschalk, fall in love on Season 4 of “Bachelor in Paradise.”
The two have since tied the knot and welcomed two sons Gates and Max.
And now both Jade and Raven have taken to social media to reflect on how their time on the Bachelor Nation show changed their lives.
In a new post on Instagram, Raven shared a sweet video of her and Adam hugging and dancing together, as she reflects on how the two met.
Over the video she wrote, “The butterfly effect is crazy because what if neither one of us signed up to be on The Bachelor / The Bachelorette or decided to go on Bachelor in Paradise.”
Raven shared she thinks she and Adam were meant to be and captioned her post, “We still say we would have found each other 😂💕”
Jade posted a similar video online of her and Tanner kissing in front of a sunset and shared the journey that led to her to go on “Bachelor in Paradise.”
She said, “The butterfly effect is crazy because wdym if my ex had never told all his friends I was ‘marriage material’ except for my flat chest, I would have never decided to get breast implants. Which in turn, I would have never been asked to shoot for Playboy, and if I had never worked with Playboy, I would have never been cast for The Bachelor.”
She continued, saying, “If I had never been dumped on The Bachelor, I would have never been sitting in my room at midnight deciding if I should sign my contract the night before I was supposed to catch my flight to Bachelor in Paradise. And if I had never decided to take that chance to step foot on that beach, I would have never met Tanner, and if I had never bet on love, on reality TV of all places, I wouldn’t have met the LOML and have three beautiful children I get to do this life with.”
Jade added in the comments, “An unhinged love story for the ages. 😂 But really, all of this is true. Lol.”
We’re so happy that the butterfly effect led these two amazing couples to find each other and we’ve loved seeing each of their love stories unfold over the years.
We can’t wait to see what other Bachelor Nation love stories form this summer on the new season of “Bachelor in Paradise”!
