Dean Unglert & Caelynn Miller-Keyes Recreate Their First Date from 'Bachelor in Paradise'
Well, that looks familiar!
Two years after their first date took place on “Bachelor in Paradise” Season 6, beloved franchise couple Dean Unglert and Caelynn Miller-Keyes recreated the romantic moment and shared it via social media on Thursday.
As viewers will recall, the pair spent a special evening together at Villa Amor in Sayulita, Nayarit, Mexico, where Dean memorably let Caelynn jump into a pool alone after she declared that she “definitely [trusted] him.” In 2021, however, Caelynn turned the tables on Dean and let him take a solo plunge in the very same pool.
“How it’s going vs how it started. two years later and i had the privilege of returning to our first date spot with @caelynnmillerkeyes to take a lil walk down memory lane,” Dean wrote on Instagram, accompanied by back-to-back footage of their first date and their most current.
He jokingly added, “We had a blast but turns out neither of us can be trusted.”
Caelynn later expressed gratitude at Dean’s swoon-worthy gesture to surprise her with a trip to the place where their love story began.

“Yesterday Dean surprised me and took me back to where we had our first date two years ago,” she captioned a photo of the duo enjoying cocktails while overlooking Sayulita’s stunning skyline.
Dean and Caelynn had palpable chemistry on “Paradise.” Although Dean briefly put a halt to their relationship and left the beaches of Mexico, he quickly returned to win Caelynn back and they eventually exited the show together.
The pair — who recently purchased a home together in Las Vegas and describe their partnership as “unconventional” — sparked marriage rumors in 2020 after they were each spotted wearing rings on their left hands. Dean later shut down speculation, explaining that the rings were only meant to represent their commitment to one another.
“In my opinion, I don’t need the title of husband to show that world that I’m committed to one person, and so the fact that I’m wearing the ring is showing just that,” he said on “The Bachelor: The Greatest Seasons — Ever!” in June 2020. “I’m committed to Caelynn and only Caelynn, and that’s why I’ve been wearing it for the past six or so months.”
