Bachelor in Paradise season 8 aired the final installment of its finale episode on Tuesday, November 22, 2022, at 8 pm ET on ABC. The two-hour episode featured most of the cast members returning to the show for one final time, hashing out impending differences, addressing several concerns, and providing important updates about what transpired this season as well as their status after filming wrapped.

On tonight's episode, Victoria confirmed her break up with Johnny and, after an emotional altercation with him, also announced that she was dating Greg Grippo (from Katie Thurston's season of The Bachelorette). From the couple's date to Italy to their matching tattoos, fans failed to believe that Victoria hadn't cheated on Johnny with Greg. One tweeted:

"I hate this Greg/Victoria segment with my entire soul. It's nit the serve you think it is. It's slimy."

Season 8 of the hit reality series saw popular Bachelor Nation cast members making their return to the franchise and the beach for another shot at finding love and a potential partner to spend the rest of their lives with. While some found the same, others tested the waters but were unable to solidify their relationships by the end of the season, leading to an emotional breakup.


Victoria confirms her relationship with Greg after addressing breakup with Johnny on Bachelor in Paradise

On tonight's episode of Bachelor in Paradise, many cast members stepped up to hash out issues between themselves and their partners that transpired throughout the course of the show. For Johnny and Victoria, their stint on the series ended with an unforeseen engagement. The bachelor had maintained that he wasn't completely committed to Victoria and kept reiterating how scared he was.

However, for Johnny, she made it seem all worth the risk, leading him to take the step and pop the question. The latter was pleased with Johnny's commitment and said "yes." The two ended the show as each other's fiances. However, they soon broke up after issues between them.

The duo met each other at the Bachelor in Paradise reunion. While Victoria claimed that Johnny called her names and accused her of not being able to cook or clean, the bachelor stated it was all misconstrued and that she had begun talking to Greg Grippo while they were allegedly working on issues.

Johnny and Victoria had very different stories of what transpired between them after the engagement. The latter revealed that she had been clear that she wasn't happy once the former couple entered the real world, and that she wasn't going to get engaged if they kept fighting and having a toxic relationship. However, Johnny mentioned that the timeline didn't quite match.

The Bachelor in Paradise star explained that even though they had issues, they were still trying to work through things. Johnny then revealed that there were rumors of her cheating on him with Greg, which she vehemently denied. While Victoria pulled in the accusations, he stated that even she had said things that he didn't want to air out in public.

Johnny also revealed that she was posting videos with Greg right after they got engaged, which she again denied. He wished she could have apologized to him or come clear to him about having a full-blown relationship with Greg. However, when host Jesse Palmer asked if she was in a relationship with Greg, she confirmed their relationship.

Greg soon stepped out after Johnny left the scene and confirmed that they were in a relationship. He explained that they were friends before rekindling things after her engagement ended with Johnny. Victoria mentioned that she didn't care what people said as she was happy with Greg. The couple even got tattoos together that said "ciao."
