How much money did Jade Roper and Tanner Tolbert get paid by Bachelor in Paradise to get engaged? Jade Roper and Tanner Tolbert were the most recent couple to get engaged from Bachelor Nation, Tanner got down on one knee during the Bachelor In Paradise finale and asked Jade to marry him – she said “yes.” It has always been a mystery how much money couples on The Bachelor, The Bachelorette, and Bachelor In Paradise receive in exchange for letting ABC exploit their relationship and getting married. According to Jade and Tanner, if they stay together for two years – they will be receiving at least $88,000.
Every time someone from the Bachelor franchise gets engaged, they are given a Neil Lane engagement ring to propose with, and the jeweler appears on the ABC TV show and basically receives free advertising in exchange for the ring. According to Jade and Tanner, the couple gets to keep the Neil Lane engagement ring, however their contract indicates that if they break up before to years is up, they have to return the ring to the jeweler. Jade dished to TMZ, “ABC owns it for two years, and after that, if we’re still together, we keep it… Or until we get married.”
In Jade and Tanner’s case – the ring that they got from Neil Lane is worth $88,000. General consensus on the internet is that the ring that Bachelor In Paradise couples receive is not as expensive as Bachelor and Bachelorette couples – and their rings are worth over $100,000. So, basically if Jade and Tanner get married on television, they will receive a check for that, a ton of swag and free products for the big day, and they will be the proud owners of an $88,000 ring – which they can then sell to the highest bidder.
