Viewers watched Noah Erb break up with Abigail Heringer during last week's episode, as he expressed how the bachelorette is "perfect in so many ways" but maybe not perfect for him.
The couple voted "Most Likely to Live Happily Ever After" at Paradise Prom therefore appeared to shockingly split up, but did the pair reconcile on the show or maybe get back together once filming ended?
As for the other couples in Paradise, many of them appeared to strengthen their connections and grow deeper in love at prom, such as Serena Pitt and Joe Amabile as well as Kenny Braasch and Mari Pepin-Solis.
Maurissa Gunn and Riley Christian also recently had an emotional breakthrough on the show and seem totally wrapped up in each other.

SERENA and JOE
Serena and Joe have been shown falling in love on Bachelor in Paradise, and they were just named Paradise Prom's King and Queen, showing the cast -- who voted on superlatives -- viewed them as the strongest couple on the beach.
Joe and Serena decided to take their relationship to the next level in Mexico by entering a Fantasy Suite and enjoying an overnight date together.

Joe then popped the question and the couple will be shown getting engaged on Bachelor in Paradise's seventh-season finale, according to Reality Steve spoiler blogger Steve Carbone.
Carbone said eyewitnesses had spotted Joe and Serena together in Chicago, where Joe is from and currently lives, at a rooftop pool in early July.
"These people are gonna find a way to see each other and not hide it. They do it every season," Carbone wrote in a July 6 blog post.
Abigail later seemingly low-key spoiled Serena and Joe's relationship status in August, Cosmopolitan reported.
Serena posted a photo of herself poolside in a black-and-white bikini on Instagram and captioned it, "Feeling beachy tonight, I wonder why."
Abigail commented, "I'm stealing you away from @joeamabile1."
Viewers immediately noticed the potential spoiler, so it seems Joe and Serena are still engaged.

ABIGAIL and NOAH
Abigail and Noah didn't exactly glide through Paradise as a couple. They briefly split along the way due to Abigail being guarded, but Noah decided to push through and fight for her.
Noah, however, later realized Abigail may not be his "person," and so just as Abigail was ready to tell Noah she was "falling in love" with him, Noah let her down gently and broke her heart.
Abigail felt hurt and betrayed, and Carbone reported in a June 30 blog posting that Noah did in fact break up with Abigail before the cast's overnight Fantasy Suite dates and "they both left single."

But in September, Carbone reported Abigail and Noah reconnected and began dating again once they returned home from Paradise.
"[Abigail and Noah] broke up on the show, got together post show," Carbone explained in a September 28 blog post. "They've been seeing other post show."
On October 1, Carbone also posted a photo on Twitter showing the couple visiting a coffee shop in Oklahoma together earlier that same day.
"Noah and Abigail at Coffee House on Cherry St in Tulsa, OK earlier today," he tweeted.
In an August 13 sponsored Instagram post on Abigail's account, she posted a video of herself in which she was wearing a thick gold link-chain necklace.
A follower of Bachelor fan account @bachelorettewindmill pointed out how Abigail's necklace in that video appeared to be the same one Noah had been constantly wearing while filming Bachelor in Paradise.
Fans therefore questioned if Noah had given Abigail his necklace as a sign of his affection, which would then indicate they had reconciled and got back together.
In early October, Noah posted a video on Instagram Stories poking fun about rumors out there, seemingly in response to recent reports Abigail had hooked up with Clare Crawley's now-ex Dale Moss earlier this year.
A woman could be heard laughing in the background, and so many fans are assuming that person was Abigail and she apparently finds the Dale rumors funny.

BECCA and THOMAS
Becca and Thomas haven't received much airtime on Bachelor in Paradise, but they've been a consistent couple ever since Thomas chose the Season 14 The Bachelorette star over Tammy Ly.
Thomas didn't enter Paradise with the best reputation following his stint on Katie Thurston's The Bachelorette season, but Becca decided to get to know him and give him a genuine chance.

And when new arrivals Anna Redman and Mykenna Dorn showed up to Paradise, both women expressed interest in Thomas initially, but he rejected dates with both bachelorettes to focus solely on his blossoming connection with Becca.
Surprisingly, Becca and Thomas broke up before the overnight Fantasy Suite dates and they both left the show single, according to Carbone.
However, in early August, Instagram spoiler sleuths noticed Thomas and Becca seemed to be hanging out in the same kitchen based on the distinctive countertop that was visible in the background of their social-media postings this past summer.
And Carbone reported on August 31 that Becca and Thomas reunited in the real world after the show and are currently dating.
"Becca and Thomas break up before the finale and leave the show separately. There's been rumors floating around given the amount of DM's and emails I've gotten on it, and yes, those rumors are true," Carbone wrote in an August 31 blog post.
"Becca and Thomas have gotten back together post filming and are dating."
Becca even posted a behind-the-scenes photo on Instagram in September of Thomas rubbing her feet in Paradise, and she captioned the image, "This little piggy went to the beach."
Thomas commented on the picture, "Little do people know, you're actually smiling at the floor to ceiling stack of Doritos behind me."
One of Becca's followers commented, "This guy has 'red flags' written all over him."

Katie Thurston even showed that she no longer has hard feelings toward Thomas, whom she had called "selfish" and "unkind" on her season for allegedly trying to pursue a stint on The Bachelor.
Katie expressed her support of Becca and Thomas' romance when she commented on Becca's social-media picture, "Obsessed with this. [Sunglasses emoticon]. look how you look at him!"
Bachelor in Paradise bartender Wells Adams even believes Becca and Thomas are a good match.
Wells, who observed the couple on the beach, told Us Weekly that he likes Thomas.
"He is a guy that is very good at speaking and as someone who's a radio host, I appreciate that. It wasn't a red flag for me that, like, he's well-spoken," Wells said amid criticism Thomas is a smooth-talker and manipulative.
"That's a weird thing to get on someone for. I think the concern is that you know, Becca has a tendency to not choose the best guys in the world. But for this, I do think that Thomas is a good guy."
Wells, in fact, believes Thomas is "getting a bad rap" on Bachelor in Paradise because "a lot of people hated him" on Katie's The Bachelorette season.
"And so I don't think it's an apples-to-apples comparison," Wells told the magazine. "I'm rooting for both of them. I like both of them and we haven't seen a lot of in the past couple episodes, so I'm totally team Becca and Thomas right now."
MAURISSA and RILEY
Maurissa and Riley have had insatiable attraction to each other since their first date in Paradise, and they've apparently made a couple of trips to "The Boom Boom Room."
Once Maurissa pleaded with Riley to open up to her about himself and what he wants, the couple was able to express they were falling in love, dive deeper and establish a potentially-lasting connection.

The spoiler blogger wrote in an August 24 blog posting, "Maurissa and Riley are the only two from the engaged couples that haven't been spotted publicly since filming ended."

But Carbone did confirm that Riley and Maurissa "have seen each other."
"They're just better at hiding it than these two who hang out in large crowds and in large cities all the time," the spoiler blogger wrote.
"To each their own, and the show really doesn't care or else they wouldn't keep doing it. Whatever floats their boat."
KENNY and MARI
Mari and Kenny hit it off on the beach right away, but Mari got scared and pushed Kenny away, which resulted in him dating both Demi Burnett and Tia Booth.
However, Kenny found his way back to Mari, who promised to focus on him and commit to their relationship going forward.
Kenny and Mari fell hard for each other in Paradise once they removed everyone else from the equation, and they both agreed they were "all in" with each other.
Carbone reported that after enjoying an overnight Fantasy Suite date, Kenny and Mari ended up in the finale as one of three engaged couples.
ABC previously aired a preview of a man presenting a woman with an engagement-ring box, and the network accidentally spoiled how that man was Kenny.
Kenny's memorable gold chain and giant chest tattoo of the American flag with red, white and blue colors -- stars and stripes -- were clearly visible in the footage.

In a July 28 blog post, Carbone revealed he had received a picture from a person who had spotted Kenny and Mari together at a rooftop pool in Chicago, which is where Kenny lives.
