There have been many couples to come out of The Bachelor franchise. Between The Bachelor, The Bachelorette, and Bachelor In Paradise, there is a lot of opportunity for Bachelor Nation contestants to find love. While some people have found a match or even more than one match during their time on the shows, it doesn't always work out in the end and there has only been a handful of couples who have actually taken their love to the altar.
From the original Bachelor couple, Trista and Ryan Sutter, to more recently married couples in the spotlight and more to come, The Bachelor is responsible for marriages and growing families within the franchise.
Trista And Ryan
Throwing it all the way back to the very first season of The Bachelorette, Trista Rehn set the bar high for Bachelorettes to follow. She was the runner-up on the very first season of The Bachelor and following that season, she found her own new love story. Not only is Trista the original Bachelorette, but her and Ryan Sutter were the first couple to get engaged and then married following the show. And, not only did they get married, but they went on to start a family and have been together ever since. Fans of the OG couple can find their family life on Instagram.
Ashley And Jared
Viewers may argue that Ashley and Jared's love story is one of the most dramatic and memorable relationships in the franchise. Ashley Iaconetti and Jared Haibon first made it through their seasons of The Bachelor and The Bachelorette before heading on to the spin-off show, Bachelor In Paradise seasons two and three. It was love at first sight for Ashley when she saw Jared on the beach and her feelings for him never wavered, but for Jared, it was a different story.
It wasn't until after the two of them went through two seasons on the beach and then went their separate ways that Jared finally realized that he loved Ashley too. The couple appeared on four shows from the franchise and surprised viewers when they ended up together. As fans saw on their social media accounts, they ended up together and then made a guest appearance on a later season of the show where they got engaged. The couple officially tied the knot in 2019 and have most recently announced to their followers on Instagram that they are expecting their first baby.
Carly And Evan
Carly Waddell and Evan Bass found love on the beach during season three of Bachelor In Paradise.

After Evan won her heart over, he proposed at the end of the season and they tied the knot the following year which was aired during season four. While they made it to the altar and took the next step of having kids together, their marriage didn't last and they announced their divorce to the public via social media. Carly posted about being alone during the holidays after they broke up and opened up more about it on her YouTube channel.
