Nine Bachelor Nation couples have tied the knot in a televised ceremony — with a 55.5 percent success rate.
Trista Rehn and Ryan Sutter were the first Bachelor Nation couple to exchange vows in December 2003, with a reported 17 million viewers tuning in to watch the OG Bachelorette marry her final rose winner. Two decades later, the pair, who share two kids, are still going strong.
“I feel like when we first got married, the advice that I was giving — at least the people who were coming off of the show — was really focus on your relationship. Enjoy all the things that are coming your way — all the fun invites that you’re getting — [but remember] it’s about your relationship. So, put that first, and we did that in moving to Vail, [Colorado], and really prioritizing him and me,” Trista told Us Weekly exclusively ahead of their 20th anniversary. “We prioritized ourselves and our relationship and now I feel like [the advice is] similar.”
