Ok, so my Aunt works with one of the two women who was left on the bachelor. I don't watch but I emailed her this morning to find out what happened. This was her response:
Don't know yet... There are two more hours tonight! How long can they possibly drag this out??? According to Jason who was on Jimmy Kimmel Live last night, he and Molly (my co-worker) are still together.
Molly is not at work today and the rumor is that she is in LA filming more stuff. Perhaps a proposal....live....tonight? Who knows.
All I know is that I spent way too many hours on that stupid show this season!
Re: Here's my inside scoop on The Bachelor...
I'm guessing since she put her whole life out on tv, she expects that people will eventually find out where she works. She's a buying for Kohls.
I could never do one of these reality shows. It's one thing to have perfect strangers talking about you and disecting your life but I would be mortified to have my coworkers and friends watching me every week on tv!
I know. ?I would never be able to get on the internet again & see what people were saying about me. ?I've done it myself, said bad things about the contestants- is that what they are? lol.. & I would hate to see what others said about me! ?
This is what I read on realitysteve.com:
?Ok, so let me break it all down for you as I understand it:
Absolute fact:
1) Jason proposes to Melissa in NZ
2) Jason sees Melissa roughly twice a month from end of NZ (they stayed three days together after FRC) to the emergency taping
3) Jason tells Melissa it is over.
4) Melissa flips out. Screams. Yells. Cries. Calls him a bunch of names, etc. etc. Basically a total meltdown.
5) The second ATFR is like normal. Jason/Molly happy, Melissa okay ? it was all for the best, yadda. though obviously I don?t know the exact language.
The following things I?m going to tell you are more complex than stone-cold fact, however I trust my source and STRONGLY believe that everything I?m about to tell you is true because I mean?some of it is too unbelievable and detailed to just pull out of total fabrication.
1) Your interview with Megan, which I listened to late yesterday, corraborated what I had heard about Melissa. She was a bubbly spit fire, however she barely spoke to Jason for the first week.
2) Jason made an instant connection with Molly, and despite her poor edit there are several things during the season (tent date, long walk alone in Seattle) that point to that fact. Yet, it wasn?t over the top because that is not Molly?s personality.
3) Just prior to the Final Five, Jason informed producers that Molly was the one.
4) The plan was formed. Producers asked Jason who he liked second best and he told them he had taken interest in Melissa ? had a lot going for her, sweet, attractive, etc. They told him to bring her to the Final Two, pick her at the FRC for drama and that she would get America?s love and attention ? aka a set up for The Bachelorette. They convinced Jason that he would do no irrevocable harm to Melissa, because she would get the popularity.
5) I can tell you with almost 100% certainty that Melissa fell in love with Jason. In fact, my source said that is who Chris Harrison and the rest were ?cheering for and were happy when they saw her bond with Ty.? Period. Nothing else is true. Melissa fell in love with Jason, the staff saw it and rooted for it and were happy for them.
6) Which leads to this fact. Only three people (Mike Fleiss, another top-level showrunner (Martin), and Jason) knew about the plan until AFTER THE FRC. Immediately after the FRC, Chris H and the rest of the staff was informed of the plan and what would go down at the ATFR. No idea how they reacted, and really it isn?t a big part of the story.
7) Immediately after Jason returned to Seattle he got in touch with producers and they put him in touch with Molly. Molly did NOT know about this plan before the FRC, but DID know about it just several days after the FRC. How do you think she was able to take him back? Because she knew. My guy also told me she will play this off at the ATFR as, ?Jason is a good man who was in a high pressure situation. Once he got away from the camera, his heart changed. And I loved him.?
Now, this is the slightly disturbing part but my source said he heard this from reliable people. Remember that I said Melissa was head over heels in love. She saw Jason every other weekend and told Jason she was planning on moving out to Seattle, loved Ty, wanted to start a family. Jason made all of this seem great. He is playing the game, before finally realizing after one of these ?heart to hearts? that Melissa was seriously falling for him.
9) He called the producers and they moved up the show for him but told him he had to do it, per the agreed ?twist?, on camera.
10) Hence everything you will see at the ATFR show.
If you have any questions, let me know. But it?s pretty self-explanatory. My source said that ATFR was still in post-production until either earlier this week or late last week. I have no idea how they will spin it, but they will for damage control.
How does the truth get into the mainstream? You said something about some mysterious e-mails before. That would help. As would someone saying ?sue me, I?m talking.? From what I?m told Melissa is ?better? but still is taking this very hard.
No idea if she will follow the company line on Ellen and the talk show circuit. Also, the whole parents thing was way overblown. They just were private people and didn?t want to participate. I?ve heard they are very religious. Not sure what that has to do with being private. But they just didn?t want to be on the show. No other conspiracy theory to that.
Hope you enjoy the carnage. Because it is coming!?
Also, this is what they say happens tonight:
ATFR 2:
-Chris Harrison talking to Naomi, Nikki, Stephanie, Kari, and Erica live in studio. Gets their reaction to everything that happened. They essentially all bag on Jason saying if he was that conflicted, he should?ve waited and not proposed.
-Took questions and comments from the audience. Some of the girls on stage answered some of the questions, but it was basically getting feedback.
-Jason comes out next by himself. This is when Chris Harrison reads the letter from Melissa. Afterwards, Jason defends his decision saying he had to do it, didn?t want to lead Melissa on, follow his heart, Molly was constantly on his mind, blah blah blah
-Bring Molly out by herself first then Jason joins her. Talk about how everything is great. Rewatches her segment from ATFR 1 and reiterates she was really surprised, had a lot of questions, but Jason answered them. Her family had questions too, but, they?re fine with it now and they love Jason. She?s planning on moving to Seattle once everything dies down. Hope people aren?t mad at him for following his heart. Jason is mad that people are saying bad things about Molly. Molly states for the record, she is NOT pregnant.
-When both out there, Chris Harrison asks Jason at what point he had something for Molly, and audience member screams ?The tent!? So they bring the tent out to both of them as their gift.
-Show ends with them bringing Jillian out and announcing her as the next Bachelorette
