Juan Pablo Galavis and Nikki Ferrell Heading to Couples Therapy
by Tierney Bricker and Beth Sobol Today 10:40 AM PDT

Apparently, it is not OK. And by it, we mean Juan Pablo Galavis and Nikki Ferrell's relationship!
The Bachelor couple is set to join the cast of VH1's Couples Therapy when it returns for its fifth season on Wednesday, Sept. 10, E! News has learned. The pair, who will seek counseling from Dr. Jenn Berman and her staff, have already begun filming as production kicked off two days ago.

While VH1 isn't commenting on Juan Pablo and Nikki's involvement, they announced season five's cast would have a mystery pair joining the confirmed couples, including Jenna Jameson and John Wood, Big Brother's Dick "Evil Dick" Donato and Stephanie Rogness-Fischer, Naughty by Nature's Anthony "Treach" Criss and Cicely Evans, and Jersey Shore's Deena Cortese and Chris Buckner.

So why weren't Juan Pablo and Nikki included in the announcement? A source tells E! News, "It's true, they're doing it. The reason it wasn't put in the press release is due to Juan Pablo's deal with ABC. It's not up until August, so, contractually, it can't be mentioned until then."

This isn't the first time Juan Pablo and Nikki have turned to reality television for relationship advice: The couple was spotted with Marriage Boot Camp stars Jim and Elizabeth Carroll, who've worked with fellow Bachelor alums Trista and Ryan Sutter, back in March.

After Juan Pablo chose Nikki as the winner during his time on the ABC reality hit, he soon faced backlash over his decision to not propose and the fact that he had yet to drop the "L-word." While the two are currently trying to make things work long-distance, he's in Miami and she's in Kansas City, a source recently told us, "Juan Pablo is very happy with Nikki" and that the couple was even "talking about their future."

Juan Pabs and Nikki aren't the first Bachelor couple to appear on Couples Therapy: Vienna Girardi, the "winner" of Season 14 with Jake Pavelka, and Kasey Kahl, a season six Bachelorette contestant, sat on the couch to hash out their relationship issues in season one. They later split, so fingers crossed Juan Pablo and Nikki's time on the show works out better!

And as luck would have it, we happened to get some advice for them from one of Couples Therapy's most infamous stars, Teen Mom's Farrah Abraham, who infamously participated in season four by herself. So what does she think Juan Pablo and Nikki need to do to make their relationship work?

"For starters, maybe Nikki and Juan Pablo want to move closer to each other," Abrams offered. "And if they are having fidelity issues, they need to fix it and change things, or else he can go back to being a bachelor."

As for Couples Therapy, she advised the duo to "be open to growth and try not to hold yourself back. It's really about pushing yourself and growing. I would definitely let Dr. Jenn work her magic!"

Reality Steve first reported the news of the Juan Pablo and Nikki joining the series.
Couples Therapy's fifth season premieres Wednesday, Sept. 10, on VH1.

Agree with everyone here. And this show (from the little I watched) is pretty vulgar and intense. Can't imagine it being good for them or their image. Also confused about why they are doing it but the money seems the most logical explanation. Not good!!

I agree. Nothing about this feels right. The fact that Farrah Abraham is giving advice. It has YUCK written all over it.

This must be new info regarding Farrah Abraham....This show has Psychologist who have counseled couples for years now I know Farrah was on the show last season but I really doubt that she is giving advice....

Who's Farrah Abraham?

From the E-online article, she's a participant from previous season of the show. She was asked by E-news on her take about Nikki and JPG but she has nothing to do with this season. The persons qualified to do the counselling are Dr. Jenn Berman and her staff.

I must say I'm quite disappointed we won't see much or any activity from them on social media for at least two more weeks. Nothing to look forward to

I am sorry I should have said when asked she offered her advice not that she was giving advice. I hope that they use the show for what it's supposed to be Therapy. Still keeping my fingers and toes crossed. Their greatest revenge will be success.  Revenge may by a harsh word but I couldn't think of anything else.

I would wager 98% of the couples are still together after this show.....There are those who are not really a couple....Vienna came onto the show to get closure with Kasey she was already seeing someone else, Kasey still wanted a relationship with her.....

Luvlady, have you seen the show before? What's your assessment? I got curious so i just watched an episode in you tube. I would appreciate if you could provide answers on my queries:

1. So all the 5 couples will be staying together in 1 house?
2. If yes, does the couple share their issues with each other?
3. Aside from the couples counselling, do some members of the family also appears on the show to resolve past issues?

Oh ok...That sounds better. So Vienna already splitted with Jake before going to this show? and she got involved with Kasey after?

YUP, I watch every season....
Yeah all the couples stay in the house, they have group therapy with all the couples together, they also have individual couple's therapy an also individual therapy.....
Yes family members come on if it's deem necessary to the couple or the individual therapy.......YES there will be drama because after all it is a TV show but from what I have observed it really help the couples......I don't know what JP/Nikki's issue will be but it doesn't have to be anything like cheating or anything like that......It could be Nikki doesn't want to move or JP doesn't want to move but they LOVE each other so they decided to get counseling...

YEAH, Kasey/Vienna were dating after her/Jake broke up......Kasey and Vienna has some serious issues in their relationship that cause them to split but Kasey wanted to try...
