Bachelor in Paradise season 9 couple Eliza Isichei and Aaron Bryant got engaged on the season finale, but are they still together after the show? When Bachelor in Paradise began, Aaron spent some time with Mercedes Northup, and they even shared a kiss. However, the next morning, he realized that he really liked Eliza, but he didn't tell her about his short-lived romance with Mercedes. When Eliza found out, she worried that she'd end up in another love triangle after her experience on Bachelor in Paradise season 8, but she and Aaron were able to move forward with their relationship.

On Bachelor in Paradise season 9, John Buresh asked Eliza out on a date, but Aaron didn't want her to go. When Eliza returned, she told Aaron that she was thinking of him while they were apart.

Thankfully, Charity arrived on the beach shortly after, and was able to clear things up. Aaron reassured Eliza as well, and they eventually became exclusive. At the end of the season, Aaron proposed, and Eliza said yes. Are they still engaged?
