Joe Bailey and Samantha Steffen have all but confirmed things didn't work out between them after dating on Bachelor in Paradise, and that became apparent with their live tweets during After Paradise.

Juelia Kinney appeared on After Paradise last night to discuss how Bailey dumped her for her close friend. Kinney's shocked watching the season unfold on TV because she had no idea "how intentional" both Bailey and Steffen were in their desire to meet and date in Mexico.
Kinney knew Bailey had played her, calling his behavior disgusting, deceitful and gross. However, Kinney admitted she felt more betrayed by Steffen because they had been invested in each other's lives up until Paradise filmed. The girls had taken vacations together and were the closest in the house during Chris Soules' season of The Bachelor.
"Sorry Juelia! I was scared & had no idea of drama going on.. deceiving some1 is never an option #undertheJoespell #BachelorInParadise #bip," Steffen tweeted during After Paradise.
"Under the joe spell?? Really?" Bailey tweeted in reply last night.

A couple hours later, Steffen wrote, "We have never facetimed :/ please don't throw me under the bus. i tried to downplay 2 wks of texts."
Steffen also thanked After Paradise guest James Gunn for making the comment about how easy it can be to get swept up in passion. She claimed she had "NO idea the extent of what happened."
Kinney didn't appear to accept Steffen's apology. On the contrary, she pointed out how they're no longer friends and reiterated how disrespected she felt.
Next Monday night, Bailey will be stepping onto the After Paradise stage, surely to get grilled about everything that has gone down. On Twitter Tuesday, he teased that he won't be easy on anybody, and it seems like he doesn't intend to apologize for his actions.
"Next week on after paradise I'm throwing all kinds of shade. Fellings will be hurt, and people will cry," Bailey tweeted.
