'Bachelor in Paradise' Season 6: Nicole is centre of attention while Jordan and Christian's fight over the pinata unveils a bitter past

Jordan Kimball who was on the same season of 'The Bachelorette' as Christian, is not too happy with the latter's entry in 'Bachelor in Paradise'

'Bachelor in Paradise' season six returned on Tuesday night, and its official — Nicole Lopez-Alvar is clearly the queen of Paradise.

We also welcomed two more new faces to Paradise — Dean and Christian. While Dean has appeared in Paradise before, this is Christian's first time. He was formerly on Becca Krufin's season of 'The Bachelorette'. 

Christian's entry had the girls going crazy for his Cuban charm. On the other hand, Jordan Kimball, who was on the same season of 'Bachelorette' with Christian didn't seem to be too happy with his entry.

"He was a night-one guy on Becca's season, Stood by the meatballs the whole night and was just the guy with the mustache. Then, he made a scene at the 'Men Tell All', just so he could have a TV moment," Jordan revealed, remembering their argument on the episode. 

Stirring the pot seems to be Jordan's main goal this season, apart from his haughty know-it-all attitude. As expected, Christian had his eyes on the other Cuban in the group — Nicole. 

Nicole had already landed herself in an unexpected love triangle after going on a date with Clay and Jordan. Though most of her interest was in pursuing Clay, she was partially pursuing Jordan as well. That, however, didn't stop her from readily agreeing to go on a date with Christian when he asked her. Barely an hour after meeting Christian, Nicole seems to be falling fast for his Cuban charm and she is not hiding it.

After having quite a steamy date, Christian and Nicole return, just for Clay to steal her to spend some time. Nicole doesn't seem to have the time to even catch her breath with all the attention. Christan tries to steal her again from Clay, but Clay keeps his calm and Nicole refuses to go with Christian and stays with Clay. 

Fast forward to the cocktail party the next day and Christian tries to impress Nicole by putting up a pinata and inviting her over with a plate of chocolate-covered strawberries and drinks. Jordan, who is not in favor of Christian having the advantage in getting a rose from Nicole as it bruises his massive ego, tries to instigate Clay to break the pinata. 

Clay, however, is the better man. He reveals that while he will steal Nicole later, he won't resort to breaking the pinata or listening to Jordan. It clearly looks like Jordan is quite jealous that Christian gets to spend time with Nicole, and it hurts his ego that she didn't care about him after their date on Monday night's episode.  

He triggers Clay again to steal Nicole from Christian, and Clay decides to butt in before they break the pinata. Clay tries to steal her, but Christian refuses to let her go. Not wanting to create a scene and make Nicole uncomfortable, Clay backs off. 



 

Jordan seemingly pretends to be outraged by the way Clay is treated, however, it is clear that he is, in fact, jealous of Christian. He continues to instigate Clay to break the pinata again, and Clay once again refuses. Jordan then tells Clay he will break it for him, but Clay refuses his offer. 

That doesn't stop Jordan, however, as he sneaks up on the pair and tries to steal the pinata. Christian notices this and tries to stop him, which leads to a massive fight between the two men. 

The rest of the gang rushes to the scene, and it becomes evident Jordan is just trying to vent his frustration from the 'Men Tell All' episode on Christian. This clearly confirms Jordan's jealousy. Next week's promo reveals that the fight escalates and security has to step in.

'Bachelor in Paradise' season six airs every Monday and Tuesday night on ABC. Check your local listings for more information.
