'Bachelor in Paradise' Engagement: ABC Unveils Photo of Jared Haibon's Proposal to Ashley Iaconetti
There will be tears in the upcoming season of "Bachelor in Paradise," but the good news is that at least some of them will be happy ones. Ashley Iaconetti and Jared Haibon, two multi-season cast members, have officially gotten engaged, and there's photographic evidence.
On Monday, the "Bachelor in Paradise" Twitter account shared a photo of the moment to congratulate the couple, writing in part, "We're all crying now." Iaconetti, who openly calls herself "the crying girl" from her season of "The Bachelor" and later appearances on "Bachelor in Paradise," later retweetwed it.
We're all crying now ????❤️???? Congratulations to @ashleyiaco and @haibon_jared on their engagement! ???? pic.twitter.com/lW5euwmcIr

Unfortunately for fans, Iaconetti and Haibon haven't been sharing many details about the proposal or their plans with fans yet. However, the bride-to-be did share that news broke before she had a chance to tell her own grandmother.
I didn't even tell my grandma yet...????

After years of will-they, won't-they, though, Iaconetti and Haibon are probably fine with things happening a little out of order. The two met in 2015 on "Bachelor in Paradise" Season 2, and Iaconetti was immediately taken with Haibon, as she discussed on her web series "The Story of Us." Her now-fiancé, on the other hand, wasn't ready to commit to her, so they stayed friends in spite of becoming close. Finally, after a lot of highs and lows, they got their timing right, and they revealed that they were dating in late May.
Clearly, Iaconetti and Haibon weren't joking when they said they were serious about being together now. Haibon proposed where it all began, in Mexico, where they are for the upcoming season of "Bachelor in Paradise," according to People. Their engagement is a big milestone, and we hope to see it on the show.
"Bachelor in Paradise" is set to air this summer.
