Within the first few days, Michael Allio broke down his walls and opened up about the loss of his wife, Laura, and how life is as a single parent to Sierra Jackson, who responded with support, and even named a group of stars after Michael’s family, including his late wife.

Unfortunately, that was the same night Michael ended things with Sierra, which threw her off guard. The single father said there was “something missing” between them, leaving Sierra heartbroken. Instead of staying on the beach to see who else would walk down, she decided to leave.

Michael then realized he was in danger of leaving “Paradise” as there was no one else on the beach to give him a rose now that he and Sierra broke up.

But then, Michael’s saving grace walked down the stairs — Danielle Maltby. The former “Bachelor” and “Bachelor In Paradise” contestant lost her fiancé to a drug overdose and admitted he and Michael have had past conversations as they have relatable pasts.

Once Danielle walked in, Michael also admitted to having “a little bit of history” with the 37-year-old, and he was excited to meet her.

This did not sit well with Sierra, who live Tweeted during the episode, shading Michael and saying things such as "#convient" and “I feel highly disrespected. I’m gonna go meditate.”

Additionally, to get some alone time, Ashley Iaconetti and Jared Haibon were invited to this season of “Bachelor In Paradise,” which received some backlash from fans — especially since they got the second most amount of screen time of everyone on last Tuesday’s episode.

Jared opened up regarding the backlash the two have received, saying it makes him sad.

“I think we thought when we both went down to Paradise that we were just gonna go down and we’d be one of the former couples that always goes down and we’re there for a little while, we’re not going to get much screen time, it was more for us and then we had the opportunity to hang out and go on a date. Even when we were still down there, I think you and I both were under the impression that we’re not gonna get shown that much.”

“Bachelor In Paradise” airs on ABC every Monday and Tuesday. It is available to stream on Hulu the next day.
