Summary
Bachelor in Paradise season 9 welcomes Canadian Bachelor Nation star, Samantha “Sam” Picco, to the beaches of Mexico, and there’s a lot to know about her. Before she walked down the steps to the beach, she told host Jesse Palmer that she was beyond excited to join a cast of people she’d never met. She warned that she wasn’t going to play nice. She was there to shake things up and go for what she wants. Sam declared that she usually gets what she wants.
Sam arrived on the night of a Bachelor in Paradise rose ceremony, during which the women were handing out roses. Many of the men, including Sean McLaughlin, Aaron Schwartzman, John Buresh, and Peter Cappio pulled her aside to speak to her because she was their only hope to stay in Paradise. Sean was especially determined to get her rose, but she thought that he was too young for her. In the end, Sam gave her rose to Peter. As Sam continues her Bachelor in Paradise journey, here’s what to know about her.
Sam Picco’s Age
Sam is 34 years old. She’s one of the oldest Bachelor in Paradise season 9 contestants overall. She’s also the oldest woman looking for love on the beach.

Sam Picco’s Reality TV History
The Bachelor in Paradise season 9 cast might not have recognized Sam, but she’s well-known to Canadian television viewers. Sam got her start on Big Brother Canada 7, during which she placed 9th. She later appeared on Bachelor in Paradise Canada season 2. She self-eliminated in week 5. Sam will now search for love on Bachelor in Paradise season 9.
