Published on September 10, 2019, Wells Adams, the charismatic bartender on ABC's 'Bachelor in Paradise,' has been at the center of the show's drama this season. With his unique perspective and ability to hear both sides of the story, Adams has become a trusted confidant for the contestants.
As the bartender, Adams plays a multifaceted role, offering advice, listening to concerns, and even influencing the show's drama. In a recent interview with Men's Health, Adams discussed his role and how he approaches the challenges that arise.
'I would say it's one part therapist, one part wise advice giver, and then with, like, a dash of ability to actually make drinks,' Adams said.
Adams also addressed the question of whether he ever gives advice that he knows will make the show more interesting. He emphasized that his primary concern is the well-being of the contestants, stating, 'I have no desire to make people's lives more stressful than they already are in that situation.'
One situation where Adams' 'helicopter' view helped him gain a new perspective was in the case of the feud between John Paul Jones and Derek. Adams had to have conversations with JPJ, advising him to provide evidence to support his claims, rather than simply making accusations.
When asked about the unlikely match between JPJ and Tayshia, Adams pointed out that the show's format often brings together people who are not each other's typical type. He noted that this can lead to unexpected pairings and a broader understanding of what one's type really is.
As the season progressed, Adams had his own predictions about which couples might get engaged. He thought Hannah and Dylan had a strong chance, but was also rooting for Kristian and Demi. However, he was surprised by the complexities of their relationship and the challenges they faced.
