Justin breaks up with Eliza on Bachelor in Paradise

On the latest episode of Bachelor in Paradise, as the cast members were reeling from Rodney's exit after his breakup with Eliza, the latter had other plans. She decided to fight for Justin as she confessed to having stronger feelings for him and making the wrong decision at the rose ceremony by picking Rodney over him.

Before of knocking on Justin's door, Eliza confessed:

"Going after him...this is definitely a first. He's not expecting me. But I think it confirms to me that, like, my feelings are real, and he's really important to me, 'cause I wouldn't do this for just anyone. I'm trusting in the feeling that I had while we were together on the beach."

Justin was visibly shocked at Eliza's arrival after she broke up with him on Bachelor in Paradise. The star explained that she broke up with Rodney and confessed that she had stronger feelings for Justin and that she wanted a chance to explore the same.

Eliza explained that she was persuaded by everyone on the beach and their feelings towards Rodney, which ultimately led to her decision at the Rose Ceremony. Justin, however, confessed that although he was happy to see her fly all the way to fight for him, he was "utterly confused."

Justin primarily expressed his gratitude to Eliza for coming back to him and confessed to understanding the difficult position she was put in back on the beach. Eliza confessed that the second she eliminated Justin, she knew she "messed up." Eventually, Justin gave her an answer she wasn't expecting or wasn't happy about either.

On the Bachelor in Paradise episode, Justin told Eliza:

"Um, you said something there to Rodney, that like, you like somebody who's gonna, like, choose you first without hesitation, right? And like, that's exactly how I feel right now. I just want someone who, like, is so sure about me and who is gonna choose me without hesitation and like, that's not what happened."

He continued:

"You chose Rodney. Like that, like, hurts, you know. And I know it took--it's, like, taking you a lot to, like, have that conversation with him and come all the way here, and like, I don't take that for granted. It's just like, why did it have to get to this point? Like, I was right there for you, you know?"

Justin then explained as to how Eliza came to the realization that she had to come after what she wanted and he wanted to do the same. He confessed to realizing that he could choose people and prioritize them but if he wasn't going to have that reciprocated, he said, "maybe it's time I choose myself."

The Bachelor in Paradise star was visibly heartbroken at Justin's response. She confessed to coming all the way to his house after only knowing him for three days because she was confident about them. However, she soon left after realizing that Justin wasn't interested in exploring their relationship further.
