‘Bachelor in Paradise’ star Caelynn Miller-Keyes admits she was ‘so mean’ before Dean Anglat proposed: ‘I was such a monster’

Caelynn Miller-Keyes loves being engaged to Dean Unglert.

The lovebirds, who met on “Bachelor in Paradise” in 2019, just got engaged last month, but Miller-Keyes told ET Canada that she’s already started planning their wedding.

On whether she was surprised by the proposal, she said, “I was surprised by the timing, like I knew we were going to get engaged, but I was surprised that he did it there.

“Especially because it was a 22-mile hike, 11 in, 11 out, and halfway through, I was such a monster,” she laughs.

Unglert posed the question while the two were on Hawaii’s Na Pali Beach.

“During that hike, I was so upset. I was scared, I was crying, I was blaming him. Didn’t you tell me how scared you were?”

“So when you think about it, yeah, I was surprised.”
