Is 'Bachelor' Alumna Demi Burnett Currently Dating Anyone? Here's What We Know

When viewers first met Demi Burnett on Colton Underwood's season of The Bachelor, she was considered to be the villain of the season. She had a brash attitude and frequently called out the other women, so it was no surprise when she was asked to be on Season 6 of Bachelor in Paradise.
Demi showed off a different side to her on Paradise. She was easily one of the most well-liked people on the beach, and her initial relationship with Derek Peth was without drama.
However, it wasn't before long that Demi broke it off with Derek so the woman she had been dating at home could join the show. Yup, Demi came out as bisexual, and her relationship with then-girlfriend, Kristian Haggerty, was the first same-sex one to be featured on any show in the Bachelor franchise.
But, shortly after getting engaged on the Paradise finale, the two ended their relationship in October 2019. A few months after that, Demi began dating musician Slater Davis. However, they officially broke things off a few months later.
So, is Demi currently dating anyone? Here's what we know.
Is Demi Burnett currently dating anyone?
Demi Burnett does not appear to be currently dating anyone. In fact, she appeared on an episode of The Bachelor Season 28, which aired on Jan. 29, 2024, where she indicated she was single.
Promoting her appearance on the show via Instagram, Demi teased in her caption that she had asked bachelor Joey Graziadei if she could be a contestant on the season, confirming that she was single and was actively looking for love.
Although Joey didn't take her up on that offer, Demi still wrote that "[Joey's] hot and actually such a nice man." That said, ABC did find a way to incorporate her into the season, but not as a contestant, as she would have liked.
Demi Burnett last known relationship was with Slater Davis for five months in 2020.
Demi's last known relationship was with, Slater Davis, a singer and vlogger from Los Angeles. Supposedly, Demi's Bachelor/Bachelor in Paradise co-star and real-life best friend Katie Morton set her up with Slater in February 2020, and they ultimately decided to quarantine together. However, they ended things five months later in June 2020.
"Being with somebody who you just met like, a month ago, and then spending every single day together, both of us going stir-crazy and not being ourselves, not doing our normal routines, it really gets to people," she said during an episode of her Big Demi Energy podcast, which has since been discontinued.
"I love him, I'm crazy about him, he's wonderful, and it's just been really hard," she said. "It's toxic on every level, whenever you get to that point where you're questioning everything each other's doing. It's a trust thing."
Demi Burnett and Kristian Haggerty broke up one month after their engagement on 'Bachelor in Paradise.'
Demi Burnett and Kristian Haggerty's relationship was a whirlwind romance that captured the hearts of Bachelor Nation. While Demi had initially hit it off with Derek Peth during Season 6 of Bachelor in Paradise, everything changed when Kristian came to the island.
While Kristian was actually never part of the Bachelor franchise, she was specifically brought on because she and Demi had previously dated and producers wanted to test if their connection was still there. It was!
By the season finale which aired in Sept. 2019, Kristian proposed to Demi, and the ladies were engaged.
However, just a month later in October 2019, Demi and Kristian announced their separation in a joint statement on social media. “What has always been at the forefront of our relationship is love and care for one another. Our priority is doing what is best for us,” Demi and Kristian said on Instagram at the time. “With a heavy heart full of love for one another we have decided it is best for us to take a step back from our relationship.”
Given how public Demi's relationships with Kristian and Slater were, it's understandable if she's been keeping her current dating life under wraps.
