A week after Bachelor in Paradise said goodbye to Leslie Fhima and Gary Levingston, Bachelor Nation bid another fan-favorite Golden farewell in Season 10, Episode 7. So are Faith and Kim still together post-Paradise? Or did they leave their romantic relationship on the beach?
In an unexpected Paradise twist, 62-year-old Faith Martin and 70-year-old Kim Buike hit it off shortly after the Golden Bachelor‘s third runner-up made her grand entrance on horseback.
Though their first date got derailed after Kim took a trip to the medical clinic to get his rapid heart rate checked out, when he returned, the two seemingly fell hard for each other. They bonded on a deep level over losing their spouses, their physical chemistry was off the charts, and in Episode 7 they even shared an emotional moment together while discussing Kim’s latest medical update.
Despite their connection and Paradise potential, Faith and Kim were voted off the beach in Season 10, Episode 7 by contestants who were suspicious of their strong PDA and concerned about Kim’s medical issues. As the two left Paradise together, Faith told viewers, “I’m leaving with personal growth, always. It’s been such a journey being open to finding out more about Kim, and then finding out, ‘Wow. He’s really a remarkable person.’ And realizing what a catch he is. The quality of a person that he is is absolutely amazing.”
Kim added, “This has been an amazing experience. Faith is a wonderful lady. I’ve obviously enjoyed getting to know her, and we’ve both agreed that we’ve already established a very strong connection and we’ll work on it outside of here.” So are Faith and Kim still together after Bachelor in Paradise?!

But on August 12, Bailey Brown was the Bachelor Happy Hour guest, which means Bachelor Nation is still waiting for an update from Faith and/or Kim on their post-Paradise relationship status. But they’re both from Washington, so here’s hoping they were able to continue exploring their connection in the real world.
Whether Faith and Kim explored their romantic connection beyond the beach or are just friends today, they’re clearly still on great terms. Ahead of Episode 7, Faith posted a celebratory photo of her and Kim from Episode 6 and wrote, “Celebrating the small wins
