'Bachelor in Paradise': Caelynn needs to back off Blake and find a bachelor who actually wants her
Bachelor Nation, your wait is finally over, as 'Bachelor in Paradise' season 6 kicked off on August 5 with the most-awaited drama that we were looking forward to.
During Monday night's premiere, we were informed that the hook-up of contestants does not just end with the show. Most of them hook up after the show too, even if they are from different seasons.
Not wasting any time in getting into the drama, the entire premiere episode more or less revolved around Blake Horstmann from Becca Krufin's season of 'The Bachelorette' and his rendezvous with Caelynn Miller Keyes from Colton Underwood's season of 'The Bachelor' and Kristina Schulman from Nick Viall's season of 'The Bachelor.'
Basically, runner-up Horstmann was over crying into the towel for Krufin and decided to show up in paradise this season. He arrived on the beach with his good looks, ready to find the woman of his dreams. Though all the women were impressed by his hot bod and good looks, Caelynn, who looked at him like he stole her entire life worth, was not going to fall for his budget Chris Evans looks minus the charm.
To rile things up, Harrison gives Blake the first date card, and everyone in paradise couldn't wait to see who he will pick for the first date. Though the entire group assumed he would pick Hannah Godwin due to their bonding, the moment they entered paradise, everyone, especially Hannah, was left gobsmacked when he chose Tayshia Adams and headed off on their date.
While all this was happening, Caelynn couldn't get over the fact that Horstmann hooked up with her barely 24 hours after he hooked up with Kristina during Stagecoach. Caelynn also claims that she saw him text other girls while they were in bed together. And when the time came for paradise, Blake ended it terribly and asked Caelynn to keep their little rendezvous a secret.
But Caelynn claims she couldn't bear to see the other women drool over Blake and decided to come clear. Based on her behavior throughout the entire episode, one can clearly make out that Caelynn is still hung up over him. But what she doesn't understand is that this is ruining her life and she's not able to bond with the other men on the island because of her over obsession with Blake.
It is no doubt that Chris Harrison knew about Blakes' secret affair with Caelynn and Kristina. Eventually, in the end, Kristina does show up with ammo in her hand. She reveals that she is aware of Blake's fling with Caelynn and she is not going to let that affect her.
Choosing wisely, she decides to use her date card on Blake and take him out on a date. But what most don't know is that Kristina comes with a plan. A plan to make Blake her "bi**h". This leave Caelynn riled up even more. (Like for crying out loud, Caelynn it's time you move on. It isn't a new deal for you to fall in love with a guy who does not belong to you).
These obsessive thoughts aren't just affecting her, but also making fans go against her. "I get Caelynn is super mad about Blake and all but it seems like she's wasting a lot of energy on telling everyone how mad she is and what happened, which will backfire on her because she should be chatting up the peeps #bip #BachelorInParadise," wrote a fan on Twitter.
Adding to that, another fan said, "Caelynn get over that Blake screwed you over and focus on the other dudes there???? I don't get it, this might be the first time she's been screwed over #BachelorInParadise."
In all fair logic, Caelynn did know that Blake and she would be on paradise, and obviously, the two would not just be stuck to each other while in Mexico. Even if their fling had to continue, they both would have kept their options open because Hello!!! its paradise baby...
