Jess Edwards Reflects on ‘Paradise’ and Meeting Spencer Conley 1 Year Later: ‘What Is Life?!’
Looking back.
Bachelor Nation saw Spencer Conley and Jess Edwards fall in love and get engaged on Season 10 of “Bachelor in Paradise.”
Since then, the two have been keeping fans updated with their adventures online and enjoying their lives as a couple.
This week, Jess shared on social media that it’s officially been a year since she left for “Bachelor in Paradise” and met Spencer on the beach.
In a new video online, she reflected on that time and shared behind-the-scenes clips of her flying to Costa Rica.
Over a video of her at the airport, she said, “This is actually so insane. I found this video of my friends dropping me off at the airport. I had a couple glasses of wine while waiting for my flight and I was so nervous.”
Jess then showed herself in a van, driving to the filming location, and revealed it was a four-hour car ride.
“I was legit in the middle of nowhere. So I said, ‘I’m gonna take a nap,’ and then I woke up five minutes before I was supposed to arrive,” she said. Jess noted that when she woke up, she “started FREAKING OUT.”
The Bachelor Nation star also shared a selfie of her and Spencer on Instagram Story and revealed that they got engaged a month after arriving in Costa Rica.
She reflected, “Little did I know I’d be coming home with a fiancé a month later!!!! What is life?!?!”
Fans filled the comments of Jess’ post with love for the Bachelor Nation couple.
One person wrote, “No because y’all are everything,” and another said, “So crazy! Loved watching your love story unfold ❤️❤️❤️” One follower chimed in, “🥰🥰🥰 Makes me so happy,” and another added, “And look at y’all now!! 💕”
Time flies! We can’t believe it’s already been a year. We love Jess and Spencer together, and we’re so happy they found each other on “Paradise.”
We’re so excited to see what the future holds for these two lovebirds!
