Ah, Bachelor Nation. Where would Instagram sponsors and tear-filled reality TV be without you? The answer: very lost, probably.<\/p>\n

Men and women descend upon\u00a0The Mansion in Agoura Hills, Calif.<\/a>\u00a0for respective seasons of\u00a0The Bachelorette<\/em> and\u00a0The Bachelor\u00a0<\/em>looking to find their soulmate and future\u00a0wife or husband. That yellow-tinted abode has been the locale of\u00a0many a shower<\/a>\u00a0as well as a fair share of strange entrances in costumes including but not limited to a sloth<\/a>, a shark\/dolphin<\/a> (but shark), a chicken<\/a>\u00a0and much more.<\/p>\n

But what happens when the cameras stop rolling and the Neil Lane<\/strong> engagement ring has been given to the final person? Some Bachelor Nation couples succeed<\/a> and others, well,\u00a0not so much<\/a>. Just because a Bachelor<\/em> or\u00a0Bachelorette<\/em> romance doesn’t work out, that doesn’t mean the quest for love is ever over. Nay, there’s always Hollywood.<\/p>\n

On Jan. 15, current Bachelor<\/em>\u00a0leading man Colton Underwood<\/a><\/strong> opened up about his relationship with his ex-girlfriend, who also happens to be the Olympic gold medalist Aly Raisman<\/a><\/strong>.\u00a0When asked about his “worst heartbreak” on an episode of\u00a0the podcast\u00a0LadyGang<\/em>, the 26-year-old referred to Raisman as his “first love”<\/a> and spoke about their relationship.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

“While it was confusing and hard in the beginning, it also taught me a lot about myself: what I need, what I want, what I can do better in a relationship,” he explained to the hosts Becca Tobin<\/strong>, Jac Vanec<\/strong> and Keltie Knight<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Underwood added, “It was a big step for me. It was really tough.”<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

Now he has a plethora of women (including Miss Alabama<\/a> and Miss North Carolina) competing for his heart, but Underwood isn’t the only Bachelor Nation member who has dipped his toes into the celebrity-anointed waters. Take a look at the gallery below to see which other TV stars have moved out of the mansion and on to some red carpet-worthy names.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

Wells Adams & Sarah Hyland<\/h3>\n

Back in the day, Wells Adams vied for JoJo Fletcher’s affection on her season of\u00a0The Bachelorette<\/em>, but\u00a0she sent him home<\/a> during their one-on-one date. Adams and Hyland’s love story<\/a> all commenced on Twitter with many thanks to a\u00a0Harry Potter<\/em> reference that Adams made about fellow competitor Chad Johnson. Adams joined\u00a0Bachelor in Paradise<\/em> as the much-adored bartender (never forget his “scallop fingers” reenactment<\/a>) and his relationship with Hyland went full-force after. Adams moved to Los Angeles from Nashville over the summer, and the two of them continue to be the some of the funniest and realest couples<\/a> around.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\"Chris<\/div>\n

Chris Lane & Lauren Bushnell<\/h3>\n

Lauren Bushnell won Ben Higgins’ season of\u00a0The Bachelor<\/em>, but the couple parted ways<\/a> in 2017 after about a year (his season aired in the beginning of 2016). After dating<\/a> businessman Devin Antin<\/strong>, Bushnell has since started dating country music singer Chris Lane. The two of them posed on the red carpet together<\/a> in November at the\u00a066th Annual BMI Country Awards in Nashville. They then arrived<\/a>\u00a0at the 2018 Country Music Awards together and continue to post cute Instagram photos<\/a> together.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Nick Viall & January Jones<\/h3>\n

This duo’s an example of hearsay. After flirting a bit on social media, the former\u00a0Mad Men<\/em> star told the world that she wasn’t actually dating Viall. Jones called him a “friend of mine<\/a>” and said that she was single.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Kris Jenner & Ben Flajnik<\/h3>\n

This one is merely a capital-R Rumor. After his season of\u00a0The Bachelor<\/em>, Ben Flajnik was seen hanging out with KarJenner matriarch Kris Jenner in 2013. Rumors of their romance began to swirl, but Kris quickly put the kibosh on it. “Ben and I are good friends,” she said in an exclusive statement to E! News at the time. “I think he is a great guy but we aren’t dating!”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\"Jesse<\/div>\n

Jesse Metcalfe & Courtney Robertson<\/h3>\n

The\u00a0John Tucker Must Die<\/em> star had a bit of a fling with Ben Flajnik’s ex-fianc\u00e9e Courtney Robertson. They met in 2004 apparently and she wrote all about their romance in her book I\u00a0Didn’t Come Here to Make Friends: Confessions of a Reality Show Villain.<\/em>\u00a0This photo of them together was taken in 2005. While she provided some, uh, not PG-rated details in her book about her trysts (she was also apparently involved with\u00a0Adrian Grenier and Gerard Butler), Metcalfe didn’t really care to comment about their relationship. In 2014, he told<\/a> Huffington Post,\u00a0<\/em>“I don’t want to help her writing career more than I already have.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Chelsea Lynn Pezzola & Chase McNary<\/h3>\n

Chase McNary made it really far during JoJo Fletcher’s season of\u00a0The Bachelorette<\/em>, but she sent him home and ended up engaged to Jordan Rodgers. Since departing The Bachelorette<\/em>, McNary has appeared on other reality shows, including MTV’s\u00a0Ex on the Beach<\/em>. He had a brief fling with pro golfer Chelsea Lynn Pezzola as well as conservative TV commentator Tomi Lahren. He told\u00a0Us Weekly<\/em> in January 2017 of Lahren, “We were talking for about two weeks, but we weren’t in the same place, so we went our separate ways.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Colton Underwood & Aly Raisman<\/h3>\n

Before being the main man in Bachelor Mansion, Colton Underwood dated Olympic gymnast and advocate Aly Raisman. The former football pro asked her out in a cute video and then their Twitter flirting became the real thing. They hit the red carpet together in 2016 at the\u00a0Sports Illustrated Sportsperson of the Year Ceremony a few months after the video. Raisman and Underwood split in 2017.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
