The Bachelor 20 - Ben Higgins - MTP -LCD - FRC - ATFR - *Sleuthing - Spoilers* #2

I didn't get an off vibe from them at all, they just seemed nervous about what "surprises" the show was going to throw at them. The Jimmy Kimmel bit was so uncomfortable to watch, but they handled the pressure from CH for an ATFR wedding well enough.

I thought the re-proposal was sweet and it was nice to see the two families coming together in celebration. Ben and Lauren look genuinely happy and in love to me, and they appear committed to each other. Lauren once said she felt like she was meant to be from Southern California, yet she's willing to move to Denver to be with Ben - that's a huge sign to me, it reminds me of when Des moved to Seattle right away for Chris.

Only time will tell if they'll truly make it, but they're off to a good start.

All is JMO of course.

Jojo didn't need closure. She needed the gig. Win/win

It sucks for Lauren (and Ben) that their great relationship was buried under JoJo's bachelorette audition, and how wrongly (IMO) edited Lauren was, as in she's a smart brilliant person but we didn't see it that much. Ben as clearly nervous at AFTR, and how he could not be after that finale. IMO they seem like a great match, can't wait to see more of them.

It was one of the most real moments ever on the AFRC to me. Ben's mom & dad couldn't stop hugging Lauren, and since he's an only child, that means a lot, IMO
And Lauren's sister, Mollie said to Ben, "Im so happy". So are all the BenLo fans.

You know what summed it up? CH standing back and just watching Ben, Lauren and family. He had no words.

That was real!

Yeah I wish we got more of how they fell in love versus their reaction to the two "I love yous" over and over again. But every season needs a storyline I guess. Happy for Ben and Lauren, and for JoJo as The Bachelorette!

And you know what? JoJo got what she wanted. The gig was the cream for her. She was so over Ben's season and looking forward to her own. She was that excited and still fake.

Very often the lead and their F1 try to "sell" themselves by being overly demonstrative and kissing all the time... but I found Ben and Lauren to be very natural and normal with nothing to prove. I felt the love...didn't need to see them kiss every 15 seconds like some do

Congrats from Grey's Anatomy
Here's to finding "your person"

Congratulations to Ben and Lauren. Not the best FRC but I certainly see the love. They have a much better chance to make it now that he is not doing DWTS. I wish them all the happiness in the world.

Now bring on the Ette.. I am more than ready.

Wonder what enhancements she'll do next for her season?
