Bachelor Pad 3 full cast photo, plus names, bios, and spoilers!
ABC had to wait until current Bachelorette contestant Chris Bukowski was booted during last night’s episode before they could announce him as the final contestant on Bachelor Pad 3 and release the above photo of all the eligible pretty people wearing as little as possible and posing together in a swimming pool.
The contestants are…
Back row: Chris Bukowski, Blakeley Jones, Sarah Newlon, Reid Rosenthal, Tony Pieper, Nick Peterson, Brittany Taltos, Erica Taltos, Jaclyn Swartz, Ed SWideriski, Jamie Otis.
Middle row: Chris Bain, Paige Vigil, Ryan Hoag.
Front row: Kalon McMahon, Rachel Truehart, Lindzi Cox, Erica Rose, David Mallet, Donna Zitelli, Michael Stagliano.
And thanks to ABC’s perpetual reality show fly in the ointment, Reality Steve, here are the SPOILERS followed by names and descriptions for all the cast members with links to photos and more info when available:
Bachelor Pad 3 hook ups:
Michael Stagliano and Rachel Truehart
Ed Swiderski and Sarah Newlon
Ed Swiderski and Jaclyn Swartz
Chris Bukowski and Sarah Newlon
Tony Pieper and Blakeley Shea
Kalon McMahon and Lindzi Cox
That’s more hook-ups than a KOA campground!!! How is it no one hooked up with either of the Taltos twins? How is it no one hooked up with both of the Taltos twins?!? Looks like no resurrection of the #Twinning hash tag is in our future 🙁
The Bachelor Pad 3 final four couples are:
Ed Swiderski and Jaclyn Swartz
Rachel Truehart and Nick Peterson
Chris Bukowski and Sarah Newlon
Tony Pieper and Blakeley Shea
Tony Pieper and Blakeley Shea were eliminated in fourth place, followed by a karaoke competition for the final three couples won by Rachel Truehart and Nick Peterson.
So Rachel and Nick made it to the final two and will choose which of the other two couples will join them in the finals. Rachel and Jaclyn are very close friends, so it is assumed she and Ed will be chosen, but when $250,000 is at stake, sometimes friendships don’t matter as much.
And here’s the cast of Bachelor Pad 3 with brief bios and links:

Jamie also thinks Jaclyn is toxic.
Erica Rose

Occupation: Law Student
Age: 29
Residence: Houston, TX
Erica was a presence on Bachelor Pad 2, speaking the truth and stirring the pot. But after being voted off and sent back home to her parents, she is ready to return and win the money all for herself. She also has a love/hate relationship with Kalon, who is from her hometown.
Jaclyn Swartz
From: The Bachelor Season 16, Ben Flajnik
Occupation: Account Manage
Age: 27
Residence: Newton, MA
Jaclyn is super competitive, smart, manipulative but well liked amongst the cast, despite being a self-proclaimed mean girl. This smart-mouthed woman will tell it like it is, but still stay on everyone’s good side to ensure that she is kept in the house. However, Jaclyn thinks Rachel Trueheart wants to be just like her.
Rachel Trueheart
From: The Bachelor Season 16, Ben Flajnik
Occupation: Executive Assistant
Age: 27
Residence: New York, NY
Rachel narrowly escaped going home on the 2-on-1 with Blakeley, but still remained closed off, which ultimately led to her demise. Now she is back, and finally open to love – and even more open to taking home a lot of money. However, this could all be challenging since Jaclyn gets really annoyed with Rachel.
Brittany and Erica Taltos
From: Jersey Shore Season 4
Occupation: Students
Age: 22
Residence: Gainesville, FL
These two are the definition of double the trouble and double the fun. They are in it for the money and maybe to find a guy, but nothing serious. Erica has the reputation for being the smarter, more conservative twin. She is still a virgin and has not dated much. Brittany however, could not be more opposite of Erica, she is the flirtatious, boy-crazy twin. As fans, the twins think Erica is snobby, boring and not pretty.
Paige Vigil
From: Super Fan
Occupation: Jumbo Tron Operator
Age: 24
Residence: New York, NY
As a dedicated fan of The Bachelor, Paige has preconceived notions of all previous cast members from writing The Bachelor recaps in her college newspaper and admits she will be a bit star-struck. She may look sweet and innocent, but do not underestimate her because Paige will use her knowledge of the cast to her advantage. Though she will put up a good fight for the money, she ultimately hopes to find the love of her life and settle down.
Ryan Hoag
From: The Bachelorette Season 4, DeAnna Pappas
Occupation: High School Dean/Former NFL Player
Age: 32
Residence: Minneapolis, MN
Ryan is a person who stands strong in his beliefs and is one to let it be known. He did not find love on DeAnna’s season, and is not going on Bachelor Pad to find it either — he is here for the money. But, he is by far one of the more handsome men in the mansion and will be an object of desire — could a possible love interest distract him from winning the cash or will he stay focused on the prize?
Reid Rosenthal
From: The Bachelorette Season 5, Jillian Harris
Occupation: Realtor
Age: 33
Residence: Philadelphia, PA
Reid is most remembered as coming back to propose to Jillian after she had already rejected him – only to be rejected all over again. He later found love with his long-term girlfriend of several years, with whom he just recently ended things. At this point, Reid is unsure what he wants out of life when it comes to career, love, and money and hopes to figure this out in Bachelor Pad.
Kalon McMahon
From: The Bachelorette Season 8, Emily Maynard
Occupation: Luxury Brand Consultant
Age: 27
Residence: Houston, TX
Kalon was the villain on Emily’s season. But at least he was honest. Maybe Kalon is not ready to settle down, but he is ready to dominate those inferior to him. He will charm the women, he will compliment the men and he will go all the way to the end just to keep the money all to himself. Plus, he is frenemies with Erica Rose.
Nick Peterson
From: The Bachelorette Season 7, Ashley Hebert
Occupation: Trainer
Age: 27
Residence: Tampa, FL
Nick never really made much of an impression on Ashley. He was too reserved and too concerned that he would make a fool of himself. As a result, he never got the chance for love. He finally found his footing at “The Men Tell All” and now he is ready to show America and all of “Bachelor Nation” who he is. And, he is going to use his body to make sure no one votes him off.
Tony Pieper
From: The Bachelorette Season 8, Emily Maynard
Occupation: Lumber Trader
Age: 30
Residence: Portland, OR
Tony temporarily left his son to be with the one girl he truly believed was meant for him, Emily. After having his heart broken on The Bachelorette, he realized that there is more out there for him and is ready to find his true love.
Michael Stagliano
From: The Bachelorette Season 5, Jillian Harris, Bachelor Pad 2
Occupation: Entrepreneur
Age: 27
Residence: Sherman Oaks, CA
Last time Michael came on Bachelor Pad, he got the money. But sadly for him, money cannot buy happiness. Soon after taking the win, he found out that his ex-fiance, Holly, was engaged to Blake. This time, he is not going to even think about the game or the money. He is just here to meet the girl of his dreams.
Ed Swiderski
From: The Bachelorette Season 5, Jillian Harris
Occupation: Technology Consultant
Age: 33
Residence: Chicago, IL
Ed won Jillian’s love and got down on bended knee, but it did not last. They gave it their all, they have no regrets, but now he is single again. He found love on The Bachelorette, so why could he not find it on Bachelor Pad?
Chris Bain
From: Super Fan
Occupation: SWAT Team Officer
Age: 28
Residence: Canton, GA
Chris is an animated, good ole’ country boy from Georgia. He thoroughly enjoys rush-kicking in doors, taking down criminals and flashing his tats. He is very similar to a 90’s action movie hero in that he wants what every hero wants — the money and pretty girl on his arm. Chris hopes to leave Bachelor Pad with both.
David Mallet
From: Super Fan
Occupation: Real Estate Agent/MMA Fighter
Age: 28
Residence: Hoboken, NJ
David is a fan of the show, but an even bigger fan of women and money. As an MMA fighter, David feels right at home being competitive and has earned the name “Kamikaze” because when he fights he either wins or dies trying. Bachelor Pad is the perfect arena where he will be able to dominate in both fields. He would like to hook up with Lindzi.
