The Bachelorette Season 19 hometown dates generally went exceptionally well for both Rachel Recchia and Gabby Windey. But Rachel had to make a tough decision regarding Tyler Norris. Rachel went to Wildwood, New Jersey, to spend time with Tyler on the boardwalk — and he admitted he was in love with her. Sadly, Rachel couldn’t reciprocate his strong feelings. She broke up with him before he could take her back to meet his family, and he returned home to his parents without her.

“[Getting dumped] was hard at the time to understand, but when you think back on it, you say to yourself, OK, if she had met my family and knew I wasn’t ‘it,’ you’re bringing more people into it and getting deeper into a relationship and it’s going to hurt even more,” Tyler explained to Parade.

Despite the hurt, early Bachelor in Paradise Season 8 spoilers note Tyler joins the cast during week 3.

Does Tyler Norris find love?

So, does Tyler Norris find love after the disaster that occurred during The Bachelorette Season 19? According to Bachelor in Paradise Season 8 spoilers from Reddit, he does. He and Brittany Galvin allegedly leave the beach together and are still dating after the show concluded. Brittany is originally from Matt James’ season of The Bachelor.

Reddit notes Tyler joins the cast during a twist in week 3. The twist takes the existing couples on the show and separates them for several days. During that separation, 10 new contestants — five men and five women — hit the beach and mingle with the cast. This is meant to shake the foundation of some of the established relationships.

Tyler takes Shanae Ankney on a date first, but it seems that doesn’t pan out. Shanae is a notable villain from Clayton Echard’s season of The Bachelor. Tyler and Brittany reportedly get together in week 5.
