Ashley Iaconetti Ashleys virginity was talked about a lot on Chris Soules season of The Bachelor back in 2015, although Chris didnt seem to have an issue with it at all. Ashley eventually went home after an intense two-on-one date, but her virginity came up again on Bachelor in Paradise and Bachelor Winter Games, where things got pretty intense with her costar Kevin Wendt. Ashley never revealed whether she and Kevin (who said that physical intimacy was important to him) had sex, and she later ended up marrying her BiP costar Jared Haibon. Noel Vasquez

Sean Lowe Sean was actually a born-again virgin, and he told the evangelical website I Am Second that he decided to become celibate after he turned 24. Sean told reporters that he and his then-fiance Catherine Giudici were waiting to have sex until their wedding, and it became a huge deal. From that moment forward, it was just a firestorm I mean every tabloid had me on the cover and labeled me as the Virgin Bachelor I was labeled as an outsider, he said. The couple now share sons Samuel and Isaiah and daughter Mia. Rick Rowell

Corrie Adamson Unlike many other contestants, Corrie didnt come out and talk about her virginity: Bachelor star Jake Pavelka put her on the spot. Corrie later told Alabama.com that she and Jake talked about things on the fantasy suite date. I was not going to go, and I was not really going to compromise on that. That was something that he needed, not necessarily to have sex, but to advance our relationship, she said. But no one knows what goes on behind those closed doors, and I felt like that would be saying one thing and doing another. Ultimately, though, Corrie said she doesnt think she was sent home because she was a virgin. ABC
