Leslie Fhima and Gary Levingston may have been eliminated last week on Bachelor in Paradise, but Decider’s exclusive look at Season 10, Episode 7 proves that other Golden couples, like Faith Martin and Kim Buike, are still going strong on the beach.
While the 62-year-old Golden Bachelor gal and her 70-year-old Golden Bachelorette suitor seem more connected than ever, obstacles lie ahead. And we’re not just talking about Paradise‘s intense relationship tests!
Ahead of Bachelor in Paradise‘s new episode on Monday, August 11, Decider has an exclusive clip that shows an emotional interaction between Kim and Faith as she learns of his potential medical emergency.
For those who need a refresher, after Episode 5’s wild “Birds of Paradise” challenge, Kim got so “worked up” that his heart rate reached 150 beats per minute and he went to the medical clinic for an EKG. In Episode 7, it seems he’s having more heart troubles. So naturally, Faith is worried!
The minute-long Episode 7 preview clip kicked off with Faith asking Kim if he’s OK and Kim pulling her aside to chat.
“This morning, I’m feeling really good,” Kim explained via voiceover. “Got good sleep last night, but not enough of it. But I did have a little medical hiccup here in Paradise.”
When Kim and Faith sat down, he explained, “They did an EKG. It looked a lot better. The plan is they wanna put a heart monitor on me, something around my midsection, and then a little recording device I wear.”
After hearing the update, Faith started crying, wiping away tears, and hugging Kim for comfort and support.

“Oh, don’t cry. This is good news. This is good,” Kim said with his arms wrapped around her. “Sorry you chose a flawed guy,” he added with a reassuring giggle.
When Faith asked Kim if he’d ever had similar problems before, he confirmed he hadn’t. So she considered what might have caused his Paradise medical drama.
“Well, the kiss did it, huh?” she joked.
“The kisses did,” he replied.
As the Golden partners continued their emotional chat, Paradise showed a snippet of Kim’s confessional interview, in which he assured viewers, “What’s going on between Faith and I is not a show. It’s not for the show. The prize at the end of this thing is the gal I’m holding hands with.” BRB, SOBBING!

If you need us, we’ll be rooting for Faith and Kim until Monday’s episode. But more insight into their relationship isn’t all Bachelor Nation has to look forward to…
ABC’s official synopsis for Bachelor in Paradise Season 10, Episode 7 is as follows: “After last week’s jaw-dropping announcement, Jesse stirs the waters with the ‘Secret Rendezvous’ challenge, letting individuals discover who they’re most compatible with outside of their couples, and a chance to meet in secret later that night. As connections deepen, a shocking reveal sends ripples through Paradise when Jeremy’s secret call to Susie comes to light, leaving Bailey reeling and uncertain. With the next rose ceremony fast approaching, loyalties are tested, and the stakes continue to rise.”
Tune in Monday, August 11, to see which couples make it to Episode 8, what Paradise has in store for Kim and Faith, and more.
New episodes of Bachelor in Paradise premiere Mondays at 8:00 p.m. ET on ABC with next-day streaming on Hulu.
