Charismatic Bachelorette couple Kaitlyn Bristowe and Shawn Booth announced their breakup and their commitment to remaining friends on Friday, via People magazine. They aren't the first, and probably won't be the last Bachelor couple to get engaged, talk of marriage and ultimately call off their relationship. But a handful of Bachelor couples have stood the test of time. Here's where they are now, according to People.
Becca Kufrin and Garrett Yrigoyen
This controversial pair caught heat after Yrigoyen was caught favoriting racist and homophobic Instagram photos. Despite backlash after their engagement was announced, the pair are still together.
Rachel Lindsay and Bryan Abasolo
Lindsay was hounded for "choosing the wrong man" at the end of her Bachelorette season, but she always insisted she chose the right person. It seems she's right, because their relationship is going strong, and the pair are currently planning their wedding.
Carly Waddell and Evan Bass
Though Waddell was turned off by Bass at first, he won her over on Bachelor In Paradise. The couple is now married, and in February they celebrated the birth of a daughter, Isabella.
Ashley Iaconetti and Jared Haibon
Iaconetti was smitten with Haibon upon meeting on Bachelor In Paradise, but the feeling wasn't entirely mutual. The pair remained friends for a few years before getting engaged this summer.
Jojo Fletcher and Jordan Rodgers
This Bachelorette couple stays out of the spotlight now, but is still very much together. They recently opened up about a "blow out" fight, which almost broke them up after The Bachelorette stopped filming.
"We didn't know how to communicate with each other, and our feelings are both getting hurt," Rogers told People.
Jade Roper and Tanner Tolbert
Roper and Tolbert were married in 2016 on TV in a Bachelor special. Since then, they've welcomed a daughter named Emerson.
Desiree Hartsock and Chris Siegfried
This couple is still together, but not without conflict. Hartsock and Siegfried currently appear on Marriage Boot Camp: Reality Stars. The new parents claimed they're on the show to improve their communication skills, according to the WE tv website.
Sean Lowe and Catherine Giudici
Lowe and Giudici are one of the more public Bachelor married couples. Lowe constantly jokes about their life as parents on Twitter, and shares family moments. The couple has two sons, Samuel and Isaiah.
Ashley Hebert and J.P. Rosenbaum
Married nearly six years ago, Hebert and Rosenbaum are still going strong and even renewed their vows in August. They took part in a renewal ceremony during a vacation in Aruba, according to E! News.
Jason Mesnick and Molly Malaney
Though Malaney was not Mesnick's original choice on his season of The Bachelor, the couple has been married more than eight years. The couple has two children, Ty and Riley.
Trista Rehn and Ryan Sutter
Rehn was the franchise's first Bachelorette, and one of the first franchise success stories. Sutter and Rehn have been married for 15 years and have two children together.
