From what I could fnd RS didn't post anything about a proposal from Ben. [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]
It was in his column from earlier this week.

Do you have the date? Was it after we had posted that Ben purposes? Just curious.

Love, it was only after the spoilers were posted here that he put up in his column the next day that Ben proposed. In his column the day before that, he said he didn't have any details on the FRC or the ATFR.

She even included his name in her conversation with CH tonight. Anyways, so we missed out on really getting to know some of her F4 guys until later in the season. I know Ryan is and was a fan favorite, but if they had showcased the other F4 guys more they might have become fan favorites as well. I know they are now, but you know what I mean.

That bothers me about this season as well. I really think the Bentley storyline backfired on them. Originally, TPTB probably wanted us to believe she was still hung up on Bentley up until HTDs when she said, "Bentley who?", but everyone got so angry at it that they edited her conversation with him in episode 6 differently than they planned and had her film that "FU Bentley" ITM. I think if this whole storyline hadn't backfired on them, we would've seen even less of the other three guys and Ashley edited to still be hung up on him in episode 6. It was going to be all about whether she could get over Bentley and fall in love with someone else by the end. I bet JP wouldn't have been so obvious if everything had gone to plan.

I for one am thrilled with the edit this season.
I believe that if they had edited it with more focus on the Bentley garbage, :puke: no one would have believed that she was into JP as much as she obviously is.

I also think that TPTB may have learned a lesson from the Brad and Emily fiasco that it didn't help the couple's real life relationship to NOT show their relationship developing to them. By focusing on Brad's relationship with Chantall, and all the RS stuff that went with that, EMILY didn't see her love story in the show and couldn't go with the process through the Real Time season.

I think that JP could watch his season with pride and maintain his confidence in his relationship with Ashley. THIS, I believe is Key for TPTB to realize that for the franchise to have credibility, it has to produce some relationships that actually last. Otherwise, the viewers think of it as a farce and and it could also affect potential quality in contestants.

One has to wonder how much of the post production drama actually sinks these relation-ships before they can gain the momentum needed to weather the regular storms of dating in real :loveboat: life.

Need I say more, took the words right out of my mouth.

We do need to see our share of eye candy in the b'ette season! Not nice to deny such a big fan base.

That actually might explain it, Peppermom! If she had moved to Sonoma she was gonna be my dentist and we'd sip Evolve chardonnay in a hot tub (but only if Ben was there too!). :awesome:

No offense Irish, but if Ashley moved to Sonoma with Ben, I don't think she'd share him with anyone! rofl

You might have better luck with the chardonnay though. wine

I totally agree. ABC made so many mistakes this season. I hope they learned from their mistakes.
