Bekah spoke about her new relationship with PureWow, saying "At first we decided to take our relationship slow because I didn’t know if I was going to go on Paradise or not and I wasn’t really sure what I wanted. I wasn’t sure if I wanted to miss out on that opportunity. But as it got closer to filming I just started realizing that it wasn’t worth it for me to put myself in that environment where I could possibly jeopardize what I had with Grayston.”

“I just decided that the guy that I was with back home was the person that I wanted to be with right now," she continued. "It was kinda this realization that if I have something right in front of me that’s good, why am I going to go out of my way to look for something else?”
