Jade’s Pregnant! ‘Bachelor in Paradise’ Star Tanner Tolbert, who got married reveals he’s scared of Divorce From Jade Roper!
- The Bachelor in Paradise stars revealed their biggest fears on Friday’s episode of the reality show, and Tanner Tolbert admitted he’s worried his marriage will end in divorce.
“I’m scared of getting a divorce — that’s half the reason why I shut you out,” he said. “In the back of my mind, it is scary that something could change for you down the road because I saw that happen with my family.”
He continued,
“I and Jade did rush into a relationship, and we haven’t had that time to go through everything together. … That’s probably my biggest fear.”
Jade Roper: the shocking announcement that she was raped
‘Bachelor in Paradise’ alum and recently wed Jade Roper has made a shocking announcement that she was raped as a teenager and kept it secret for years until Lady Gaga’s powerful Oscar performance helped her decide to make her story public.
How disturbing! Newlywed Jade Roper, 29, reveals that she lost her virginity to rape while in high school. It was Lady Gaga’s heartbreaking performance of “Until It Happens To You” at the Feb 28, Academy Awards has made her decide to share her story for the very first time.
“Tanner was surprised by these numbers. Sadly, I was not. I am a part of that statistic. I was raped just shy of my 17th birthday. One night I was at a party with some friends and they ended up leaving without me. They shouldn’t have seemed worried, they left me with a group of guys we were all friends with. I remember going with them to one of the guys’ parents’ house, we had hung out in his basement with friends several times before, so it seemed perfectly normal.”
“The Lady GaGa performance gave me the courage to speak about my story, a story that’s been trapped inside me for over 12 years. I hope that sharing my experience will help girls and women know that they are not alone. And that you have to voice things in order for things to change. And always always always: You matter.” Bravo Jade for bravely sharing your story with the world.
Jade and Tanner’s Bachelor in Paradise Wedding
Jade Roper and Tanner Tolbert first met in front of television cameras, hence it only makes sense that they’d say “I do” in true reality TV fashion: with the cameras rolling and with Bachelor franchise host Chris Harrison conducting their wedding ceremony.
They got married last month at California’s St. Regis Resort Monarch Beach; the event was integrated by BTB Event Production.
The ceremony site was dripping with twinkling chandeliers, flickering candles, willow trees, and white flowers from Flower Me Wild, including hundreds of blooms atop the canopy where the two exchanged vows.
The bride’s bouquet displayed white, cream, and pink roses. Jade’s wedding dress was a custom gown by Galia Lahav, which she paired with a cathedral-length veil.
Her bridesmaids, including fellow Bachelor in Paradise alum Carly Waddell, wore mix-and-match exchangeable bridesmaid dresses from Kelly Faetanini.

“I’m almost round enough now to where I find myself resting my arm on top of my belly instead of only holding it from underneath,”
the Bachelor alum captioned the bathroom selfie.
“#26weekspregnant #feelingtiredthisweek.”
She further added,
“Feeling crazy grateful to finally share a little secret we’ve been keeping! We’re already absolutely head over heels in love with our little one,”
