Dean Unglert & Caelynn Miller-Keyes' Adventures Will Give You Major Wanderlust
Dean Unglert and Caelynn Miller-Keyes always seem to be on the move. Whether they're exploring Europe or hiking in the California mountains, there's no pinning these two down.
Thanks to their perpetual adventures, the "Bachelor in Paradise" couple makes it easy it feel wanderlust. Their most recent trip to Sequoia National Park in Central California is no exception.
Dean, Caelynn, and their dog Pappy all hopped in Dean's van and drove up to the awe-inspiring park. Both Caelynn and Dean shared photos on social media from their time in Sequoia and how they spent their days there, which included sunset and sunrise hikes, skateboarding, and staring up at the dazzling sequoia trees. Dean shared one time-lapse video that shows Caelynn leading the way up a trail to make it in time for sunrise.
He captioned it, "we enjoyed this quick little hike for sunset so much we decided to come back for sunrise the next day."

In June, Caelynn and Dean celebrated their one-year anniversary. Days before that, on Caelynn's birthday, she marked the "one year anniversary of the day you dumped me."
Dean and Caelynn met on Season 6 of "Bachelor in Paradise" and hit it off immediately. He broke up with her, but then returned a few days later asking for her forgiveness and to leave Mexico with him to start a relationship. She accepted, and they've been on the go ever since.
The couple recently addressed marriage rumors swirling around because Dean often wears a black band on his ring finger. They spoke with Chris Harrison on an episode of "The Bachelor: The Greatest Seasons — Ever!" who asked, "Dean, I can see a ring on your finger. I’m going to ask you once and for all for Bachelor Nation: Are you guys married?"
Dean responded, "Well, Chris, here’s the thing. I don’t think, in my opinion, that I need the title of 'husband' to show the world that I’m committed to one person. The fact that I’m wearing a ring is showing just that. I’m committed to Caelynn and only Caelynn, and that’s why I’ve been wearing it for the past six or so months."
He explained, "It’s our way of telling the world and the people we’re around that we are committed to each other. For her, it’s one of those comforting things where you can wake up in the morning and see your partner wearing that ring and being like, 'Yes, they know that I’m committed to them, and vice versa.'"
Caelynn added, "He started wearing a hair tie on his ring finger just to fight women off. I liked the idea and we talked about getting rings. It’s nice to know that we are in this strong, committed relationship without necessarily having to get the government involved, as Dean likes to say."
Chris asked if he could officiate their wedding, and Dean told him the host would be "at the top of our list" if and when that day comes.
