‘Bachelor in Paradise’: Watch Rachel and Brayden Get Messy on PDA-Filled Date (Exclusive)

Rachel and Brayden are getting messy in Mexico. In an exclusive clip of Thursday’s upcoming episode of Bachelor in Paradise, the duo, who connected after last week’s Paradise Truth Box drama, walk in hand-in-hand into a date, only to find out that’ll they be turning each other into human piñatas.

“Going into this date I am feeling so excited,” Rachel tells the cameras. “Connection-wise, Brayden is definitely the most fun I’ve had.”

Rachel and Brayden fully commit to their activity, stripping down to nude undergarments as they rub paint and confetti all over each other. At one point, Rachel even dumps a container of paint over Brayden’s head and proceeds to rub it into his chest,.

“I think Brayden’s probably the only person that would be able to bring this side out of me,” Rachel says in a confessional. “This is the most romantic date I’ve been on. I don’t need fireworks and a yacht.”

Indeed she doesn’t, as the messy, art-focused date ends with a sweet kiss on the cheek.

When ET spoke to Rachel ahead of Paradise, she said that she was hoping to bring “a fun, more laid-back side” of herself to the beach, something she clearly accomplishes on her date with Brayden.

“I’m still the same person,” she said, “but just hopefully this will be a more fun environment.”

Bachelor in Paradise airs Thursdays on ABC. Keep up with all the drama on the beach with ET’s coverage of the show.
