Serene Russell Reveals How She Met Brendan Morais and Shares Unseen First Meeting Footage
Spilling the tea!
Fans got to know Serene Russell and Brendan Morais on Bachelor Nation shows throughout the years.
Serene first appeared on Season 26 of “The Bachelor” and Brendan was on Season 16 of “The Bachelorette.”
Then, Serene and Brendan both famously found love on the beaches of “Bachelor in Paradise” on Seasons 8 and 7, respectively.
While their on-screen relationships didn’t end up working out, the two hard-launched their off-screen relationship last month.
Now, Serene is sharing a behind-the-scenes look into how these two met and fell in love in a new TikTok.
Alongside footage from an October 2024 Us Weekly party, Serene wrote, “You’re telling me that if I didn’t fly to LA for one night to go to an Us Weekly event (I never do that), I wouldn’t have met him???”
In the video compilation, Serene shares footage from her first night meeting Brendan and the two grabbing drinks together after the party.
Serene had previously posted from this party back in October and included a group photo with Brendan, which we now know was a little Easter egg.
Fans commented on Serene’s post showing her love and writing things like, “She’s glowing 😍😍😍” and “You deserve it girl!”
We are so happy to see these two so happy. We love when Bachelor Nation worlds collide and find love!
