'Bachelor in Paradise' 2022 finale: Genevieve says she is unaware of Aaron's secret GF, fans want 'reunion to be taped live'
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Many viewers expected drama when Genevieve Parisi and Aaron Clancy took the couch during the Reunion segment of the 'Bachelor in Paradise' Season 8 finale. Given the previous reports of his having a secret girlfriend while on the show and Genevieve not finding out about it until after the finale, the two's reunion was quite amicable.
During the 'Bachelor in Paradise' finale on Monday, November 21, Genevieve seemed to weigh in on Aaron's infidelity claims. The Bachelor Nation member live-tweeted the Season 8 finale on night one and watched as Aaron handed her his rose before breaking up with her. "My biggest question is why would you A. Stop me from leaving twice and B. Give me a rose the night before if this was your plan," Genevieve tweeted, referring to their conversation prior to foregoing the fantasy suites, in which Aaron revealed that she can't "give me security" in their relationship.

"Whenever there is something wrong, you've wanted to leave, and you've packed your bags, and you've been on the road, and that's scary for me," Aaron remarked to Genevieve on Monday's episode during their split. "Especially if you love someone, this is probably the easiest it's gonna get. I'm gonna be honest with you, life is not easy."
When a screenshot of Genevieve's tweet was tweeted by the @bachelorettewindmill fan account, she left a fairly revealing comment. The fan account captioned their photo, "Aaron really just went there for a bro vacation huh." "I wonder if his girl back home had anything to do with it," Genevieve said in the comments section. Her remark came just days after several women accused Aaron of cheating. However, Reality Steve revealed earlier this month that Aaron looked to have a "new girlfriend," a San Diego-based lady with whom he began spending time at least nine months ago.
Genevieve and Aaron had one of the most tumultuous relationships in Paradise, from gaslighting to itching agony. They left things on a bad note in Episode 15, but they both apologized and hugged it out at the reunion. Aaron said he was "prideful, foolish, and a straight-up d**k at times," while Genevieve accepted "full responsibility for being emotionally reactive" and apologized "for not handling the tough times better."
"I ignorant to your feelings, and the thing I want to be more than anything is a kind, understanding, generous man," he explained. "Looking back, I feel I wasn’t any of those things. So for me, it couldn’t have been any more of a failure. I’m sorry. I could have been better. I could have been better in every way."
Many fans who were already aware of the infidelity suspicions and saw Genevieve make that comment on the first night of the finale were expecting she would address it. While live-tweeting on the second night of the finale, Genevieve wrote, "To everyone wondering why I didn’t bring up the two girls back home.. I didn’t know about it until after we taped the reunion."

Fans quickly took to social media to demand Reunions be taped live to avoid these situations, "See this is why the reunion should be taped live." Calling Aaron the biggest gaslighter, another fan tweeted, "AARON is the biggest gaslighter I’ve ever seen! He thinks he’s so smart & manipulative. Poor Genevieve, fell into it every time. Oh yeah… he’sa VIRGO!!!" Fans even slammed the network for sheltering Aaron's behavior, "ABC I see what you’re doing. You let Aaron off the hook way too easily for how he treated Genevieve. He’s been on 3 #bachelor shows and has behaved the same way each time. This is who he is." However, fans are also loving the fact that Genevieve is airing Aaron's dirt on the internet, " I’m out here living for Genevieve “Aaron” out all Aaron’s sheeeeet on the internet air it out honeyyyy."
