This season of Bachelor in Paradise has just begun, but two cast members were spotted out in public over the weekend, and they might be in a relationship. Either way, this is not a couple anyone saw coming, as Bachelor in Paradise season 10 has only aired the first two episodes, during which fans have criticized the new format ahead of the arrival of the Golden cast.
Reality Steve got a tip that Alli Jo Hinkes and Sam McKinney, who both appear in this season of Bachelor in Paradise, were spotted out together in Fort Lauderdale over the weekend. According to the tip Reality Steve received, Alli Jo and Sam were spotted at the Tin Roof bar in Fort Lauderdale on Saturday, July 12, and eagle-eyed fans noticed them leaving together.
Reality Steve was able to confirm that the two were indeed hanging out in Fort Lauderdale that night, but he wasn't able to confirm whether it was in a romantic or platonic way.
What Alli Jo & Sam’s Possible Date Means For Bachelor In Paradise
Alli Jo & Sam Could Emerge As A Couple
Alli Jo and Sam are both currently competing on Bachelor in Paradise, and while there haven't been signs that sparks flew between the two just yet, being spotted together after the season filmed is a sign they may have formed a love connection in paradise.
Of course, the two being spotted hanging out at a bar together could be in an innocent, friendly way, but it would seem a bit suspicious for two platonic friends from a reality dating show that's currently airing to be hanging out together after filming, especially since fans will be curious as to the nature of their relationship.
On the show, Alli Jo, who first appeared on Grant Ellis' The Bachelor season 29, flirted with Jonathan Johnson, who appeared on Jenn Tran's The Bachelorette season 21. She also shared a steamy kiss with Brian Autz, also from the same Bachelorette season. However, this is Bachelor in Paradise, and fans never know who's going to leave the island with a rose.
