'Bachelor' star Dean Unglert wants a vasectomy before having kids; fiancée explains unconventional plan
'Bachelor in Paradise' stars Caelynn Miller-Keyes and Dean Unglert became engaged in October 2022
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}"The Bachelor" star Caelynn Miller-Keyes is revealing some unconventional relationship precautions her fiancé Dean Unglert has offered to take.
Miller-Keyes, 27, explained on a recent episode of the "Help! We Suck at Being Newlyweds" podcast that Unglert, 31, mentioned getting a vasectomy before the couple has any children.
"I don’t know if Dean’s talked about this on the podcast, but he really wants to get a vasectomy — before we have kids," Miller-Keyes said.
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}"He wants to get a vasectomy because he doesn’t think it’s fair that a woman has to take birth control. So then when we’re ready to have kids, he would un-snip himself, and we would have children."

The show's co-host and former "Bachelor" contestant Jared Haibon noted that the former "Bachelorette" contestant's offer was kind, but he had a few questions.
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}"That’s very nice of him, but at the same time, like, is there any downside? Does it hurt the potential of having kids if you reverse it?" Haibon asked.
Miller-Keyes explained: "We both need to research this more, but also, I heard, like, there could be pain that’s involved if you get a vasectomy. And so, I was like, ‘I don’t want you to be in pain.’ … He and [former ‘Bachelorette' contestant] Bob Guiney were talking about it. … Even after you heal, there could potentially be just everyday pain."
According to the Mayo Clinic, "Almost all vasectomies can be reversed," but it "doesn't guarantee success in conceiving a child. Vasectomy reversal can be attempted even if several years have passed since the original vasectomy — but the longer it has been, the less likely it is that the reversal will work."

{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}"We do want all of our friends there, so we’re gonna get married in Aspen. But then I was like maybe, ‘Bam, maybe here.’ And he was like, ‘I have my mind made up,’ and when his mind is made up you can’t talk to him.
"And I was like, ‘You don’t understand that the wedding process is about a lot of decisions and changing things, so do I just not involve you?’ And he was like, ‘I don’t know.’ So, we’ll see," Miller-Keyes noted.
