Derek Peth

After her stint on The Bachelor, Tayshia competed on season six of Bachelor in Paradise, where she caught the eye of two suitors: Derek Peth (from JoJo Fletcher's season of The Bachelorette) and John Paul Jones (from Hannah Brown's season of The Bachelorette). Though Derek initially had a thing for Demi Burnett, she ended up ditching Derek to be with Kristian Haggerty, which is when Tayshia and Derek started up their romance. However, Tayshia later told Derek that she couldn't see their relationship working in the outside world.

In a September 2019 interview with Access Hollywood, Derek confessed that he was still interested in Tayshia, despite her choosing JPJ over him. "I've always liked Tayshia, but she kind of shut it down on me, told me that it wasn't something that would happen. Personally, again, I was always interested in her and that hasn't changed," he said. However, it's unclear whether Derek actually tried to shoot his shot with Tayshia after her breakup with JPJ.
