Bachelor in Paradise Jess finds love with more than just a friend on beach Thu 30 N

As Bachelor in Paradise season 9 nears its finale, the pressure is mounting and a dramatic rose ceremony is in store. Jess Girod rocked up on the beach looking for love. But, as episode 9 approaches, she’s crying in confessionals asking when she’ll get some luck when it comes to romance.

Bachelor in Paradise’s Jess felt sadness over seeing her castmates falling in love. She asked: “When is something going to go well for me?” during the ABC show. She was longing for true love, and following the show it looks like she’s found some kind of love that “no man on the beach compares” to.

Bachelor in Paradise’s Jess Girod

Hailing from Winter Springs, Florida, Jess Girod entered Bachelor in Paradise in Week One this year.

She rose to fame on The Bachelor earlier this year on Zach Shallcross’ season 27.

Jess is 24 years old and works as an e-commerce coordinator.

She was told by her fellow cast members that she seemed “super kind,” but this didn’t appear to help Jess “find her person” on the beach.
