One standout contestant on Season 29 of The Bachelor was Rose Sombke. After hitting it off with the leading man Grant Ellis, she decided to remove herself from the competition in Week 4. The reason behind her shocking exit was a loss of trust with fellow contender Carolina Quixano, who ended up being eliminated the week after.
Nevertheless, it’s been a while since the season filmed, and since another contestant got in the way of her first run, fans think she’s due for another chance. Luckily, a theory on social media is speculating that she is joining the highly-anticipated Season 10 of Bachelor in Paradise. Is this rumor actually true? Rose just gave an update that fans are not going to want to hear.
Rose Sombke shuts down Bachelor in Paradise rumors
Iconic Bachelor spoiler Reality Steve started the theory that because Rose recently quit her job, she would be starring in BIP Season 10. This instantly made the fandom jump on the bandwagon and share their excitement. Before it could spread further, though, the former reality TV star has set the record straight.
“PSA after waking up to videos and screenshots saying I’m going on paradise,” read the text above her newest TikTok video.
“I’m sorry you got it so wrong. I quit my job ‘cause I wanted to. Not ’cause I’m going on Paradise,” she explained in the clip.
Rose didn’t clarify whether or not she’d ever want to Paradise, or another season of The Bachelor. She did confirm back in April 2025 that she is still single. Maybe she’d be willing to give on-screen romance another try in the future.
Bachelor In Paradise is available to stream on Hulu.
