Jade Roper Tolbert Reveals Tanner Almost Left ‘Paradise’ for His Job Until He Fell for Her
Spilling the tea.
Bachelor Nation fan-favorite couple Jade Roper Tolbert and Tanner Tolbert first fell in love and got 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.
Jade loves keeping followers updated on their lives on social media, and this week she took to Instagram for a Q&A with fans.
One fan asked, “Tell us a story about you and Tanner in ‘Paradise’ that we’ve never heard before!”
Jade shared a photo from their time together and wrote, “Tanner had told his job he would be back two weeks into ‘Paradise’ (I guess he wasn’t planning on truly meeting anyone lol).”
She continued, “I remember him telling me one night that he was supposed to go back to work the next day, but that he wanted to stay for me. I remember thinking then that he was planning to go all in on the relationship, and I think that was the point where I decided to, too.”
Jade added, “Thankfully, his job didn’t fire him, although he wasn’t able to get a hold of them for two more weeks until filming wrapped.”
We’re so glad it all worked out, both in love and work, for Jade and Tanner!
We love seeing them continue to share their lives together and watching their adorable family grow.
