The highly anticipated Bachelor in Paradise Season 10 finale aired Tuesday, September 2, 2025 (America/New York time). The show brought love, surprise twists, and, for the first time ever, a tantalizing cash prize feature. Here’s how it all played out.
Two couples—Jess Edwards & Spencer Conley and Alexe Godin & Andrew Spencer—were the last standing after drama, challenges, and jury deliberations narrowed the field to just them by night’s end. Both couples were confronted with a weighty decision: choose “money” or “love.” Impressively, both chose love, entering a game of chance with envelopes holding varied sums. Alexe & Andrew walked away with $125,000, while Jess & Spencer received a larger sum—$190,000—and celebrated with an on‑the‑beach engagement, which Jess accepted.
Detailed recap coverage from Parade confirms the finalists, outlines how challenges like “Weight of the World” and juried votes determined finalists, and reiterates that both couples chose love over money—receiving $125,000 and $190,000 respectively, and highlighting that Jess & Spencer are now engaged.
BollywoodShaadis adds that Jess & Spencer plan to move in together in January, and Alexe & Andrew intend to live in Chicago, using their winnings (especially to pay off Alexe’s student debt). The source also notes the dramatic cheating rumors involving Kat Izzo and Dale Moss, which they deny, and confirms that Kat & Dale left the show still together and traveling.
Deadline provides further insight—Jess & Spencer, celebrated for their calm, drama-free connection, revealed that their engagement talks took place off-camera and that their winnings will go toward paying off student loans and investing in their future. The engagement ring remains with ABC until the reunion, and they’ve maintained a bi-coastal relationship since filming concluded.
Why This Finale Stood Out
Bachelor in Paradise season 10 finale features a cash prize.
This season’s twist was unprecedented for Bachelor in Paradise: the introduction of a cash prize of up to $500,000, adding a competitive element to the romantic journey. Host Jesse Palmer announced the twist mid-season, shifting the dynamic from purely emotional to strategic. No new arrivals were allowed after the twist, and relationship-testing challenges ramped up the pressure.
Final Outcome
- Winners / Engaged Couple: Jess Edwards & Spencer Conley – chose love, received $190,000, engaged on the beach.
- Second Couple: Alexe Godin & Andrew Spencer – chose love, received $125,000, continue as a couple.
- Twist: First-ever cash prize of up to $500,000 offered; both couples opted for love and walked home with varying sums.
- Aftershow: Jess & Spencer plan to move in together in January; Alexe & Andrew plan to live in Chicago.
- Engagement details: Off-camera talks, ring held by ABC, relationship remains strong bi-coastally.
Conclusion
In short, the winners of Bachelor in Paradise 2025 are Jess Edwards and Spencer Conley. Choosing love over money, they earned $190,000—and sealed their connection with an on‑beach proposal. Meanwhile, Alexe Godin and Andrew Spencer also prioritized romance, leaving with $125,000 and a strong relationship. The finale proved this could still be a competition—but one where love, perhaps, still wins.
