I haven't been following this season of The Bachelor all that closely. A number of my friends who have been watching have all been rooting for one outcome: for him to pick Emily.
I'll link to the Showtracker's full recap tomorrow, but if you are seeking an early look at what happened, here it is. (SPOILER ALERT)
After visiting with his family and talking extensively with them, Brad did indeed to propose, and it was indeed to Emily.
What do you think about these developments?
Edited to add: I'm coming back after seeing the "after the rose" special to ask if anyone else was totally put off by people's reactions to Emily? When she admitted that she wasn't ready to get married today, and the audience recoiled in shock (with an "ooooooooh"), I kind of couldn't believe it. They haven't been able to be in public together until now. Why would she want to get married to someone she hasn't even been out to dinner with in a regular setting? I thought she was being perfectly reasonable -- and nervous to be under such scrutiny. But the whole setup became so awkward, and it didn't need to be.
And while it was nice to bring back the successful Bachelor couples to give them advice, it just felt a little premature to be deciding that the relationship was in trouble. She has a child! She has a responsibility to be sure this is the right thing to do before going through with it. I was just beyond irritated with the premise that she was doing something wrong or acting inappropriately.
