After more than 20 years and nearly 60 seasons of "Bachelor," "Bachelorette," "Bachelor in Paradise" and "Golden Bachelor," it might be difficult for some Bachelor Nation fans to keep track of where every couple is now.
Here's who ended up staying together and who called it quits.
The inaugural "Golden Bachelor" lead Gerry Turner and his ring winner, Theresa Nist, were engaged during the finale, which aired in November 2023. A little over a month later, they rushed down the aisle to say "I do" in a live televised wedding ceremony. However, the two were unable to make their marriage work; in April 2024, the golden couple announced they were divorcing.
Joey Graziadei, 28, gave 25-year-old Kelsey Anderson his final rose — and a Neil Lane engagement ring — during the finale of "The Bachelor" Season 28" in March 2024.
"There's nothing difficult about choosing you. And I can't wait another minute to tell you that I love you," he professed before getting down on one knee.
The two have remained together and shared plans to move to New York.
Charity Lawson, the Season 20 bachelorette, and her final rose recipient, Dotun Olubeko, have been constantly posting cute snaps and videos together since they got engaged in 2023. The two have announced plans to marry in 2025.

Zach Shallcross, a 26-year-old tech executive, proposed to travel nurse and "best friend" Kaity Biggar at the end of "The Bachelor" Season 27 in 2023. The two moved in together in Austin, Texas, and seem to remain happily engaged, per their social media accounts.
"Bachelorette" Season 19 had a history-making two leads, which meant double the heartbreak for Gabby Windey and Rachel Recchia.
Windey, pictured, accepted a proposal from Erich Schwer as the season came to a close. However, the couple broke up over a month after the finale in 2022, while Windey was competing on "Dancing with the Stars." As the season was airing, Schwer was criticized by fans after a photo emerged of him wearing blackface in his high school yearbook.
Co-lead Rachel Recchia also said "yes" to a proposal at the conclusion of her and Windey's "Bachelorette" season, but her and Tino Franco's bliss was short-lived.
During the season finale in 2022, fans found out that Franco had cheated on Recchia by kissing another woman. A 10-minute segment showed the estranged couple having a difficult-to-watch confrontation over the indiscretion, with Franco ultimately walking away from the encounter.
After a tumultuous season, the likes of which Bachelor Nation has never seen, Season 26 bachelor Clayton Echard at one point seemed to have no remaining prospects. After Susie Evans left following Fantasy Suites, he admitted to finalists Gabby Windey and Rachel Recchia that he'd slept with both of them and professed his love for them. He later realized Evans, who'd left, was where his loyalties lay, and he ultimately didn't propose to anyone.
But during the finale, it was revealed that Echard and Evans rekindled their romance, but they broke up in September 2022.
Season 18 "Bachelorette" star Michelle Young, a 28-year-old fifth-grade teacher and former Division I basketball player from Minnesota, ended the season seemingly blissfully engaged to 6-foot-8 sales exec Nayte Olukoya, 27. During "After the Final Rose" in 2021, the network surprised them with a $200,000 check for a down payment on a house.
Unfortunately, six months later, in June 2022, the two announced the end of their engagement.
After "Bachelorette" Season 16 contestant Blake Moynes successfully petitioned producers to join Katie Thurston's Season 17, he joined as a late arrival and soon became a frontrunner. They got engaged in the finale but broke up two months later, in fall 2021.

Rachael Kirkconnell and Matt James have been going strong since his "Bachelor" season in 2021, if their social media accounts are anything to go by.
If you recall, James — the first Black "Bachelor" lead — and Kirkconnell hit rocky waters during "After the Final Rose," following their commitment to pursuing a relationship rather than ending with an engagement. James said he had to take a step back after images of Kirkconnell attending a plantation-themed fraternity formal in 2018, while she was in college, started circulating. But the two ended up reconciling shortly after the finale aired.
"Bachelor" Season 23 finalist Tayshia Adams, who took over as "Bachelorette" Season 16 lead after Clare Crawley's early engagement, finished the season strong with a proposal from Zac Clark. However, they called off their engagement after a year, in November 2021.

After a delayed start to her "Bachelorette" season in 2020 due to the pandemic, Clare Crawley knew what she wanted. Four episodes into Season 16, she couldn't see herself with anyone but Dale Moss, and the two were engaged. The two called it quits for good in fall 2021.
Crawley was notable for being the oldest "Bachelorette" lead at 39.
Season 24 bachelor Peter Weber proposed to Hannah Ann Sluss, but the two hit rough waters after they returned from Australia. The finale revealed that they broke off their engagement, and Weber and finalist Madison Prewett still had feelings for each other. However, the two ultimately didn't last.

Season 15 "Bachelorette" lead Hannah Brown — of "I have had sex and Jesus still loves me" fame — ended her season engaged to musician Jed Wyatt. However, Brown announced during the finale that they'd broken up following reports that Wyatt was in a relationship when he went on the show.

After famously jumping a fence during an emotional moment on Season 23 of "The Bachelor," Colton Underwood ended up with his final choice, Cassie Randolph (who had quit the show). However, the two broke up over a year later, in May 2020. A few months later, Randolph filed for a restraining order against Underwood, which she later dropped.
In a 2021 interview with "Good Morning America," Underwood came out as gay.
Season 14 "Bachelorette" Becca Kufrin got engaged to Garrett Yrigoyen in 2018. However, the two broke up more than two years later, in 2020.

Arie Luyendyk Jr. proposed to Becca Kufrin at the end of Season 22, but the 2018 "Bachelor" finale saw him walk back on their engagement. He went back to his runner-up, Lauren Burnham, and the two were married in January 2019. They have three children together: Alessi and twins Senna and Lux.
