5 reasons we want to see Jenn Tran join the Bachelor in Paradise season 10 cast

No one deserves redemption more than Bachelorette Jenn Tran, and competing on Dancing with the Stars is not enough. Here are five reasons Jenn should hit the Bachelor in Paradise beach next year.

Season 21 ofThe Bachelorettewas an uphill battle from the beginning for star Jenn Tran. Her eligible men didn’t seem like the best fits, and she struggled throughout the season to find the right person to give her final rose to. It turns out that she chose the worst person, possibly in the history of Bachelor Nation, and was forced to re-watch the proposal liveonThe Bachelor: After the Final Rose.

Since Jenn didn’t get her happily ever after with ex-fiancé Devin Strader, here are five reasons why we want to see her onBachelor in Paradise.

1. She could use a break on the beach after her nightmare of a season

Many fans were surprised Jenn was cast asThe Bachelorette.Her personality is memorable, but the leads usually are runners-up, or at least make it to hometowns.

Despite her underdog status, Jenn did her best to try to find her match with single men that didn’t seem to be cast with her in mind. From Sam N., who at 25 years old had never been in a relationship, to Sam M., who wanted a different Bachelorette and pressured Jenn to jump off the Sky Tower, ABC seemed to be swiping right on any contestant that had a Tinder bio. We can, and should, do better.

2. Devin should never have been cast

As if his manipulation were not enough, fans and journalists were able to spend all of five minutes findingDevin’s arrest recordfor alleged domestic abuse. This is something the producers should be doing to weed out unstable candidates. There’s no reason why someone with a criminal record, for an alleged violent offense, should be allowed to be in the mix on a show known for drama and putting contestants in difficult situations.

This isn’t the first, nor is it the last time it’s happened. According toThe Hollywood Reporter, one of Joan Vassos’ current contestants, 60-year-old educatorGil, also had a temporary restraining order granted against himfor allegations of stalking. Someone inThe Bachelorcasting department is asleep at the wheel.

3.Bachelor in Paradiseis less intense thanThe Bachelorette

Bachelor Nation alum Mari Pepin revealed theBachelor in Paradiseexperience is “much more relaxed”in an interview withTV Insider.While Mari mentioned in the same interview she wouldn’t recommend a stint on the beach for Jenn, we’re all for it. It's a beachside villa, six other couples to take the heat off your storyline, and isthe most successful for finding love, according to Collider.

With nine seasons wrapped and a 10th on the way, there have been a total of nine marriages, and many engagements and long-term relationships throughout the yearsBachelor in Paradisehas been on air. Couples who have tied the knot include season 2’s Jade and Tanner and Ashley and Jared; season 4’s Raven and Adam; season 5’s Astrid and Kevin; season 6’s Caelynn and Dean and Hannah G. and Dylan; season 7’s Mari and Kenny, as well as Becca and Thomas and Serena and Joe.

4. We want to see Jenn’s story beyondDancing with the Stars

It’s been a fun ride watching the Bachelor Nation cast dominate the dance floor season after season, but Jenn’s addition to the cast seems like a consolation prize for her. After forcing her to relive her engagement, she was added to the cast at the last minute. After all,DWTSalready covered their contract withThe Bachelorcrew with season 28 bachelor Joey Graziadei.

Regardless, it’s great to see Jenn in a more light-hearted environment. She’s doing great! No subpar men are competing for screen time. There’s more sequins! She deserves more of a redemption tour than that though. ABC should be rolling out the red carpet anywhere Jenn wants after how her season went.

5. A second chance with Jonathon

Is itreallyover between Jenn and Jonathon Johnson? We know he’s going to be on the beach since he was thefirst cast member officially announcedby ABC. Not to mention, Jenn and Jonathon have already beenteasing fans with dating rumorson their socials. They clearly have a spark and have been hanging out while Jenn competes onDancing with the Starsin Los Angeles. Let’s take this party to the beach, shall we?
