Bachelorette 8 - Media - Discussion

Part of the issue was "there were positives and negatives to both and holes in each relationship. Arie [Luyendyk] and Jef [Holm] have gotten to the same place but from completely different routes. "At first, Harrison says she was intrigued by Jef's aloofness toward her. "She was curious why the guy was playing hard to get. They had a very slow burn, but it was deep and grew leaps and bounds every week eventually passing others. He makes her laugh and she's at ease around him, but he's also young and playful and she is looking for a man and a father for Ricki."

Ari, on the other hand, had the immediate physical connection. "They couldn't keep their hands off each other. I know women across America are saying he needs to get kissing lessons, but it apparently worked for her. Then they started to get to know each other, realized they liked each other and it grew on the emotional plain. They've had this great romance, but is there more to them than making out? Can he offer the deep soulful love that Jef does? And are either of them truly ready to step into her daily life with Ricki and be a dad?"

And while he won't say whether she eventually came to a decision or let someone put a ring on it, he does claim that she's happy and doesn't regret doing the show a second time. (Which, for the record, she confirmed herself backstage at the Men Tell All taping.) He also teased that yesterday he found out some juicy things that occurred since he last saw the sexy single mom and assured that he'll bring them up on After the Final Rose, which airs live for the first time Sunday. "I've been begging them to do it live for years to give it that Superbowl feel and because they finally gave in, I'll get to give the fans the most up-to-date information on what's happening with her and the guys. Things will happen that I have no idea how they will turn out. It's an emotional and combustible finale that will lead into an unpredictable, emotional and shocking Final Rose special."

I will be VERY SURPRISED if it lives up to all of the hype. But I do think it has a different ending somehow.

Why does anyone ever listen to the rhetoric that CH and/or MF spew anyways?
