Kufrin, who held the Bachelorette season 14 title, headed down to the beaches of Bachelor in Paradise in 2021 where she met Jacobs. Despite coupling up during season 7 of the reality show, Kufrin broke things off with Jacobs ahead of the season finale. But by August 2021, the pair reconciled.
“We came back [home] and had to explore that on our own away from the cameras but in that moment [on the beach during the finale], I think that was game-changing for me,” Kufrin explained during an episode of the “Talking It Out With Bachelor Nation” podcast at the time. “Because I have really never had somebody fight, I would say, like, tooth and nail to want to keep a relationship with me.”
She continued: “We chatted until, like, 3 or 4 in the morning some nights and just talked about any and everything. The second I saw him — because I flew back to L.A. and then drove down to San Diego — I think right away he picked me up and kissed me and then we just had unlimited time to explore what this could be.”
