While many couples have found - or lost - love on the reality TV dating franchise over the years, others have met their match within Bachelor Nation after their season ended. Katie Thurston joined the club of off-camera Bachelor Nation couples in November 2021 when Us Weekly confirmed her relationship with John Hersey - who she sent home in week two of The Bachelorette season 17 - after her broken engagement to Blake Moynes. The duo dated for more than six months before their June 2022 split.
