The Bachelor Season 27 is coming to a close, with only one woman getting the ring. Who will cement their history in The Bachelor history?

The Bachelor Season 27 Fantasy Suites Recap

Ariel was the first up for fantasy suite dates. She and Zach went on a moped carriage tour of the city before spending the evening at a night market. Here they tried exotic food, including insects and strange animal parts. They watched a street performer play with fire as they tried new things. They capped the night off at dinner, where Zach revealed there would be no sex during the dates that week. While Ariel was disappointed, she understood the decision. Although the mood was set and it would be a hard test for The Bachelor to pass.

Gabi had the next fantasy suite date and met Zach on the beach. He revealed they would take a pirate ship to their private island and beach. Once they hit the island, the emotions hit home, and Gabi started to express some of her anxiety. The two talked it out and hit a deeper level in their relationship. They spent the night together and may have done more than just cuddle on The Bachelor.

Kaity had the third and final fantasy suite date with Zach. The couple met in the jungles of Thailand and began their date by boarding a clear-bottom kayak for a tour of the waterways. They had a difficult conversation before heading to dinner in their private suite. The couple decided to spend the night together to explore their relationship more intimately. But did they get that intimate?

Who did Zach choose to keep on The Bachelor Season 27, Episode 10?

In the much-teased episode, Zach ended up having sex with Gabi on their overnight date after agreeing it was the right move for their relationship. Feeling guilty about his decision, he told Kaity on their date, creating a rift between them. They resolved some of this on their overnight date and decided to spend the night together.

During the rose ceremony, Zach revealed that he broke the promise of remaining celibate during the week and then gave out roses. Kaity was the first to receive a rose and accepted it. That meant the final rose would be given to either Gabi or Ariel. Ultimately, Zach felt he could see a brighter future with Gabi and gave her the rose. While she had some doubts about accepting it since she thought Zach violated her trust, she took the rose.

Now Kaity and Gabi are slated to meet Zach’s parents in the final episode of The Bachelor Season 27, leading up to a potential engagement in Thailand. Can Kaity and Zach get past him breaking a vow? Can Zach repair the trust with Gabi that may now be lost? Only time, and next week’s episode, will tell.

Who did Zach send home on The Bachelor Season 27, Episode 10?

This meant Ariel would leave the show after not receiving a rose at this ceremony. Many at home throughout the process felt that Ariel was too good for Zach, and the realization may have set in. She did all the right things and opened up to Zach at the right times, but their relationship was one of the later ones to bloom.

Ariel took the news like a champ and never shed a tear as she was escorted out of the resort. She heard Zach out before leaving, reiterated how she couldn’t have done this process with anyone else and applauded him for being so open and making it easy to share her true self. Keep Ariel in mind; she may be a likely candidate for Bachelor in Paradise.
