Why were Demi Burnett and Jubilee Sharpe on 'The Bachelor' Season 28?
On the Monday, January 29, episode of 'The Bachelor' Season 28, Demi Burnett and Jubilee Sharpe hosted a group date where the women had to "fight" for Joey Graziadei's love.
The contestants were in for a grueling challenge as they worked out in a boot camp-style format and performed various exercises and drills to impress Joey.
After the intense workout, they were tasked with the main event: a paint battle. The women were divided into two teams and given paint guns to shoot at one another.
The team with the most paint on them at the end of the battle was declared the loser, and the winners got a chance to spend some extra one-on-one time with Joey.
Naturally, the group date idea turned out to be chaotic and messy, with contestants diving for cover and firing paint at one another.
Demi Burnett and Jubilee Sharpe's 'Bachelor' history
Jubilee Sharpe tried her luck on Season 3 of 'Bachelor in Paradise' in the summer of 2016. Unfortunately, she was eliminated in the first week of the show. She returned to the show in Season 5 in 2018 but left during the third week.
Before that, Jubilee vied for Ben Higgins' heart on 'The Bachelor' Season 20 but was sent home during the fifth week. After her elimination, Jubilee returned to the Army to finish out her four and a half years of military service.
On the other hand, Demi Burnett made her debut in Bachelor Nation in 2019 as part of Colton Underwood's 'The Bachelor' Season 23 cast. Although she managed to make it to the sixth week, she was eliminated soon after.
Demi returned to the screen in 'Bachelor in Paradise' Season 6 and surprised her fellow castmates when she disclosed being in a relationship with a woman named Kristian Haggerty back home.
Even better, Kristian showed up in Mexico to support Demi, and the two got engaged. Unfortunately, the couple called it quits in October 2019.
