Bachelor in Paradise is a success!! Thank God! Someone had to leave paradise engaged or ABC would be in big trouble. Marcus Grodd get his heart broken by Bachelorette Andi Dorfman but he recovered pretty fast after meeting 25-year-old Nursing-home owner Lacy Faddoul. In fact the two took a dip in the ocean and never looked back.
In regards to the naysayers who think they got engaged way too fast they said in a PEOPLE magazine interview:
“Lacy: We actually calculated how many hours we spent together and how long it would’ve taken us in real life to date and get that far. It was approximately six months!
Marcus: The main difference between Bachelor In Paradise or The Bachelor and The Bachelorette is if we don’t get a date card, we still get to spend time together. So yeah, it’s within a month’s span, but within that month, you get a lot more time.
Lacy: Timing is everything. It happened naturally for Marcus and I in Paradise. We treated it as if it were our everyday life. We both have a lot of responsibilities in our careers [Grodd is a sports medicine manager and Faddoul owns an elderly care facility], and Paradise allowed us to let our youth come out.”
And in regards to wedding plans they said this….
“Marcus: We definitely want to wait a year to get married at least. We want to do it right. We get one shot at this!
Lacy: We are actually going to enjoy our engagement. We’ve talked about it and I’ve been on Pinterest a lot [laughs]. He sends me bridal magazines, so he wants it to be on my mind. He’s coming to see my home and I’m going to see his home, so we’re going to decide after that where we’re going to live together.”
Are Cody Sattler & Michelle Money still together?
