Sarah Herron Reveals She and Robert Graham Dated After Bachelor in Paradise


Just last week, we were telling you about Sarah Herron’s regrets over “jumping to conclusions” with her Bachelor in Paradise beau Robert Graham. The blonde beauty was feeling wary about her decision to dump Rob during the finale episode as she wondered if she overreacted to his lack of intimacy in the Fantasy Suite. But now we’re finding out that the two actually met up for another date when they got back to their mutual hometown of L.A.!


In her most recent Parade blog, Sarah dishes on the off-camera moments following her heartwrenching breakup, which apparently included some mentorship from Michelle Money.

“[Michelle] said, ‘If Robert really cares for you and is falling in love like he says he is, he will come after you in L.A. You live too close not to make it work if it’s meant to be.’ I felt comforted by this thought and trusted in her.”

And despite the sage advice from the Bachelor franchise mainstay, Sar admits that she still wasn’t feeling fully confident in her decision. In fact, the 27-year-old was so in turmoil and emotional (“I cried for days”) that she first failed and then succeeded at meeting up with her ex.

“[I] even attempted to see him in our hotel rooms after we left,” she details. "I apologized profusely and pleaded for Robert to understand that I got carried away. I confessed that I had put too much pressure on the development of our relationship and inappropriately compared it to Cody and Michelle’s and Marcus and Lacy’s. He calmed me and said we’d figure it out back in L.A.”

That promise was kept, and the two met for dinner in Santa Monica a little while later. But alas, it was of no help for Sarob — at least, that’s not the way Sarah sees it. “At first, it felt like home — it was comforting to see him, but within a few minutes I could tell it was ruined. We weren’t ‘Sarah and Robert'"; (otherwise known as ‘Sarob’).

Whomp. Sometimes the past is better left there, if you ask us. Then again, it can’t be easy to rewatch a breakup like that and not have a few misgivings. At least this uncomfortable dinner may have given Sarah some closure.
