It’s hard to believe that it was just a few months ago that we watched 26-year-old soccer player Marcus Grodd get his heart broken by Bachelorette Andi Dorfman.
In fact on The Men Tell All episode Andi Dorfman claimed that Marcus, “did everything right, but other relationships were just stronger. He’s the perfect example of how everything can be great on paper, but it doesn’t always equal great love. It was important to me for Marcus to know that I wasn’t scared by how early he declared his feelings for me.” Ouch!!!!!
Marcus was devastated when Andi dumped him after hometowns, but luckily ABC had a trick up their sleeve and shipped him off to Tulum Mexico to star on Bachelor in Paradise for a second chance at love and he found it on day ONE!!!
The ladies were smitten with the 6’2″ blue-eyed soccer player right away, but unfortunately after his swim with Lacy on the first night he only had eyes for her.
The guys were smitten with 25-year-old Bachelor cast-off, Lacy Faddoul right away and she did announce that she was 80/40 torn between Marcus and Robert, and poor Marcus only got 40 points out of 120.
In fact Lacy jumped in to the ocean and wrapped her legs around two DIFFERENT guys on the same night, but at least one of those guys was her new fiancé Marcus–thank God!!
So Lacy and Marcus have not played a major role on this season of BiP mostly because there was no drama to show. The two fell head over heals in love and never even looked at another contestant. So their engagement is a bit “ho-hum”—like we all saw it coming, not much to report here.
BUT what is interesting is that Lacy is packing up from San Diego where she runs a Nursing home and moving to Dallas Texas where Marcus works with his brother-in-law as a Sports Medicine Manager at American Cryotherapy.
So this relationship may actually work. The two did survive the 6 weeks of editing and are now enjoying some real one-on-one time.
Are Cody Sattler & Michelle Money still together?
