Will Dean Unglert and Kristina Schulman make it to the Bachelor in Paradise finale or will another girl complicate their relationship?
Bachelor in Paradise fans would love to see Dean and Kristina fall in love this season. After all, their first interaction was adorable and they are both picture perfect. Heck, we’re already imagining their wedding and their beautiful babies.
Unfortunately, our dreams may not come true unless Dean figures out which Paradise girl he really wants. That’s right – another girl will arrive in Mexico and create a love triangle that will continue past the season finale.
When Dean was asked by Bachelor in Paradise producers what the key to surviving Paradise is he said, “dating around.” And that’s exactly what you’re supposed to do when you go on a dating show with 31 other singles.
But seriously, he met Kristina and they seemed to have a great connection. What happened?
Dean gets his first ‘Paradise’ rose
On Tuesday night’s episode (August 15), fans will see the moments leading up to the show’s two-week shut-down. The first rose ceremony didn’t happen until the cast and crew returned to Paradise.
Reality Steve reports that Dean left Mexico with Kristina and they returned to the show as a couple. Kristina gave Dean a rose during and it appears that they are going to be the couple that makes it to the finale.
Before we get to the sad news, here’s Dean and Kristina on a date. So sweet.
In walks DLo
Remember Danielle “DLo” Lombard from Nick Viall’s season of the Bachelor? She is one of four girls who will arrive after the first rose ceremony.
Apparently, she catches Dean’s eye and he asks her on a date.
Ugh, poor Kristina!
After spending the first three days of filming with Dean — and two weeks together away from the set— her relationship with Dean turns into a love triangle.
Spoilers indicate Dean basically likes both Kristina and DLo. Is this what he meant when he said, “dating around” is the way to survive Paradise? I wouldn’t call it survival. It’s heartbreak for one girl — maybe both.
Biggest drama of the season

Smiling Dean stirs up what is expected to be the biggest drama-fest of the season.
According to Reality Steve, he will spend his days with DLo and his nights with Kristina. That’s not cool, Dean.
By the time the third rose ceremony rolls around, Kristina has had enough. She packs her bags and leaves Paradise.
Dean makes it to the finale
Apparently, Kristina is still on Dean’s mind, although he makes it to the season finale.
He doesn’t spend the night in the Fantasy Suite with DLo, though. Instead, he tells her he loves Kristina and they both leave Paradise.
The drama doesn’t stop there, though. Dean continues to date Kristina after filming wraps. He also spends time with DLo. So, who does he choose? Or does he break up with both girls after the show ends?
Fans will have to wait until the Bachelor in Paradise reunion airs in September to get an update from Dean, Kristina, and DLo. It’s going to be an awkward reunion.
