The Bachelor and The Bachelorette Couples: Who"s Still Together?


The Bachelorette"s 2016 season has come to a close, with Jordan Rodgers and JoJo Fletcher engaged and utterly, blissfully in love.


Supposedly. If they"re putting on a front, his acting is a lot better than we saw in Pitch Perfect 2, we"ll give Aaron"s brother that much.


In any case, the burning question now becomes:


Will JoJo and JoRo actually make it to the altar?


Are they the new golden couple of the franchise, ready to join Trista and Ryan, Ashley and J.P., Jason and Molly and Desiree and Chris?


Or will we have another Juan Pablo and Nikki Ferrell / Andi Dorfman and Josh Murray / Chris Soules and Whitney Bischoff on our hands?


Who is living happily ever after? Who is not?


You don"t need The Bachelorette spoilers to tell you that the "made it" list is a lot shorter than the other, though there are some bright spots.


A final rose does not a future make. However, it"s not the kiss of death that it once was, either, based on recent years" success stories.


Take a look at some notable duos from The Bachelor and Bachelorette and see whether they"re still together since the cameras turned off …




1. JoJo Fletcher and Jordan Rodgers

JoJo Fletcher and Jordan Rodgers are an interesting case, both seemingly over the moon in love and behind the proverbial eight ball since day one. They certainly seem to have weathered whatever storms have been in their path thus far, but it’s still early in the “honeymoon” phase, and we can’t shake the feeling that there’s more to Aaron’s little brother than we know – or that JoJo does at this point. Chances they’ll make it to the altar? Outlook not so good.



2. Ben Higgins and Lauren Bushnell

The season has only been over for a few hours, but Ben Higgins and Lauren Bushnell are totally still together alright! Think it will last?



3. Kaitlyn Bristowe and Shawn Booth

Kaitlyn Bristowe and Shawn Booth look the part of the happy couple here in August 2015. But will their engagement actually last? The show’s track record suggests otherwise …



4. Chris Soules and Whitney Bischoff

Chris Soules and Whitney Bischoff just got engaged on The Bachelor season finale in March 2015 … only to break up in May 2015! What seemed like the perfect fit turned out to be anything but.



5. Ashley Hebert and JP Rosenbaum

6. Brad Womack and Emily Maynard

Brad Womack and Emily Maynard did not last. He chose no one on his first stint on The Bachelor, making him 0-for-2. She fittingly tried this charade and flopped again too.
