Here’s to know more about his relationship!
Is Brendan Morais Still Dating Pieper James?
As of recent months, Brendan Morais has been in talks of having a relationship with Pieper James.
Though not playing on the show at the same time, they went on to star on the show Bachelor in Paradise, together and at the end of the show, the cast and crews from the show saw them leaving together “before overnights as a couple.”
RealitySteve.com – where the publisher eagerly shared his knowledge on the reality star’s personal life – further wrote that there were even “stories pre-show that they [Brendan and Pieper] were dating before BIP even started, this became a storyline on the show, I believe they started getting called out for it by others, so they just bounced, but are dating post-show.”
Not only before and during the show but the pair were also spotted together post-BIP, as the publication shared via Twitter along with a photo of the couple “outside of the SLS hotel in Miami.”
During the early episodes of BIP, the viewers saw Brendan and Natasha Parker, a fellow co-star on the show, getting closer as time went by. However, everything changed when Pieper showed up unexpectedly and asked Brendan out on a date without batting an eye to any other men.
While their pre-show relationship was still on a talk at the time, they, later on, confirmed being together before coming to Paradise but awaited to say it for themselves as the couple wanted to achieve some of their goals. “We have to have each other’s back,” Brendan told Pieper.
As for their post-show relationship, an Instagram account, Bachelorette Windmill, shared on 6 September 2021 a video of the couple walking out of an eatery on Broadway Street in South Boston, which may hint of them still on each other.
Well, disregarding these facts, they are so in love with each other, as a source told Us Weekly back in June 2021, “Pieper and Brendan have been dating for a few weeks now. Either he’ll fly to New York and hang with her, or she’ll fly to Boston to hang with him. She was most recently in Boston over Memorial Day weekend and they were even spotted out in public together.” The source also added that both of them were “super into each other and are getting to know each other and are just having fun going on dates.”
The same article from the publication also reported the meeting through a mutual friend and dating a few weeks before Brendan came to Paradise. However, during his original cast role on the show, Brendan linked with a few other women to whom he said of having nothing much notable relationship with Pieper and not having put a label on their relationship.
But the pair further explains their cause of doing this on the show for gaining some huge audiences and public towards themselves. And thanks to that, the pair saw a notable increase in their followers count on their respective social media accounts.
Brendan Morais Relationship Details
Natasha Parker
While Brendan and Pieper did make quite big in the Bachelor circle, it didn’t come without consequences. Just prior to Pieper making her entry in the BIP, Brendan was having a brief fling with his co-star, Natasha Parker.
However, after Pieper and Brendan showed off their relationship without a label, Natasha called out to Brendan, telling him a “liar” and a “con artist” as he “downplayed” his relationship with Pieper.
Nonetheless, Natasha decided to confront the pre-show item couple for more clarity and exploration of their relationship. During the exploration, Pieper told of having a date about “10 times” before they came to Paradise and were dating without labels. And after hearing their side of their story, Natasha stated of having “played” by the pair.
Natasha initially saw Pieper as a threat prior to her entry on the show as she had already been in the making of articles on several publications for having a relationship with the man she was interested in, Brendan. So, she opted to ask Brendan about those rumors, to which Brendan denied any dating rumors with Pieper and said they were just a casual thing in pre-show as well. But it ended up in a huge disappointment for Natasha as Pieper went straight to Brendan with a date card following her unexpected entry on the show.
Demi Burnett
Brendan Morais was also offered a date card from Demi Burnett after her late arrival on the BIP. Demi explained her actions as her immediate reflex after being physically attracted to Brendan as they went on a date and shared a steamy kiss as well.
But, for his part, Brendan opted to keep his options for a date more open. This got Demi emotional as she buried her head in her hands and called him a “player” as they went back to the beach disappointed.
At the same time, Brendan was also in the swirling rumors of dating Pieper prior to coming to Paradise.
Well, this caused quite the noise among the Bachelor fans and viewers, as they were furious on Brendan’s new side. Some fans took to Twitter, writing, “Never would’ve thought Brendan would be such a f**kboy.”
Ex-wife Details
Prior to being a star on Bachelor in Paradise, Brendan stirred up quite a bit of romance with the late-arriving cast, Tayshia Adams, during the duo’s appearance in season 16 of The Bachelorette.
Afterward, during episode five of the show, Brendan revealed to Tayshia that he is also one of those divorcees that fell out of love with his ex-wife. He opened up, saying, “In my early 20s, I did get married. It was a high school sweetheart situation. Our families had been close since elementary school. There was no cheating, no abuse or addiction.” But they eventually ended up falling out of love and divorced.
Though, he explained that one of the facts of them divorcing was that his ex didn’t want any children of her own even in the “future.” So, even though it was hard for them and their families, they ended up divorcing “seemingly over nothing.”
While digging back up some past life of Brendan, it turns out that his ex-wife went out by the name Simone Santos, who is a designer and film shooter, as per her Instagram bio and also a former Samba dancer.
In fact, it was found in a 2013’s YouTube video from singer Sam Alves who was watching an audition for Season 4 of The Voice with his family, which was captioned, “Sitting next to me is my cousin Simone Morais who was at the taping of my Blind audition. Her husband Brendan Morais is right next to her.”
During season 16 of The Bachelorette, Brendan played out pretty far on his relationship with Tayshia Adams after getting her first date card. Unfortunately, after making it to the Adams’ top 4, he self-eliminated himself from the show. Though he hasn’t talked about why he exited, it must be due to his parents that were still not over Brendan’s recent divorce, as once during a group date lie detecting test, when asked if his parents were ready for the introduction of a woman got for himself with a frantic ‘yes’ from Brendan it came out as a possible false word.
