Pappas rose to fame after starring in a 2007 season of 'The Bachelor' appearing with Brad Womack. She made it to the final rose ceremony but rejected an emotional engagement proposal. As you know, she went on to become 'The Bachelorette' and eventually was engaged to Jess Csincsak. Interestingly, she met Stagliano who was the twin brother of a contestant on Season 5 of the show.

Back in 2011, Pappas married Stagliano in her home state of Georgia. Stephen, who was a high school teacher at the time, popped the question in 2010. “They were giddy with excitement,” a source told People. Adding, "she looked incredibly happy."

One source tells us until recently, the couple was spotted out together in Los Angeles.
