The season 10 finale of Bachelor in Paradise<\/em><\/a> began with five duos \u2014 and ended with two couples walking away with a combined $315,000.<\/p>\n During the Tuesday, September 2, finale, both Kathy<\/strong> and Keith<\/strong><\/a> and Bailey<\/strong> and Jeremy<\/strong> were sent packing at the final rose ceremony. The final three couples \u2014 Dale <\/strong>and Kat, Alexe <\/strong>and Andrew <\/strong>and Jess <\/strong>and Spencer<\/strong><\/a> \u2014 subsequently competed in an endurance competition for a guaranteed spot in \u201cthe final round\u201d of the show and a shot at $500,000. After Alexe and Andrew won the strength challenge, the majority of the eliminated contestants returned to vote and decide whether a second couple deserved to move on. (If so, the two couples would both potentially win $250,000 instead of Alexe and Andrew getting the half a million to themselves.)<\/p>\n It didn\u2019t take long for the cast reunion to take a turn as Sean<\/strong> and Allyshia<\/strong> accused Kat of having<\/a> a secret boyfriend who she had been sending \u201clove letters\u201d to via a hidden laptop. While Dale stood by Kat<\/a>, she stormed off crying. After the allegations were made, Dale addressed the group and insisted that their relationship was real. He then presented love letters of his own supposedly written by Kat. In the end, it wasn\u2019t enough, and the group picked Jess and Spencer to appear in the final round with Alexe and Andrew.<\/p>\n After Kat and Dale left, it was revealed that the final relationship test was picking between money and love. If both of the contestants picked love, they would leave Paradise<\/em> knowing that their relationship was \u201cgenuine\u201d but would \u201cpotentially\u201d be giving away a shot at any money. If one of them picked money and one picked love, the person who picked money would leave with $250,000. If both picked money, they would leave empty handed \u2014 and single! (The whole thing sort of felt like they were making up the rules as they came out of Jesse Palmer<\/strong>\u2019s mouth.)<\/p>\n Despite attempts to make it seem like Alexe was seriously considering taking the money to pay off her student loans, both couples picked \u201clove\u201d \u2014 and both ended up with a cash prize.<\/p>\n Alexe and Andrew went first, opting to solidify their relationship and become girlfriend and boyfriend. Jesse then revealed they could pick one of three envelopes for a final shot at money (ABC really wanted to hand out this cash!) and Alexe and Andrew received $125,000.<\/p>\n
