Bachelor Nation agrees James and Aaron are a perfect match
James struggled to develop any solid romantic connection during his entire time on the show, which led many to be impressed that he even managed to make it to the finale. Aaron also had trouble finding a solid connection in paradise after Tammy dumped him for Thomas, but the pals had a pact to stay on the island together since Aaron and James seem to always behave in solidarity.
A Bachelor in Paradise fan shared a photo of Aaron and James in the car as they headed home and pointed out, “Aaron and James looking happier than they did the entire time on the beach.”

One tweet humorously celebrated all the happy couples by sharing photos of each pair and they included a photo of James and Aaron as one of the couples that paradise formed.
It seems most of Bachelor Nation is in agreement with this tweet touting Aaron and James’ bromance exit as the “best part” of the night.
