Jillian and Ed Split/The Bachelorette

Jillan with that Ed, that has obviously been paid off by the producers

I just heard about this split today. The way I found out honestly is because last week my website received a lot of traffic and I kept trying to figure out what it could be since I don’t really write here that much for reality shows. Well, soon found out that Jillian and Ed broke up. I had written quite a bit on Jillian’s season of the Bachelorette…so I guess it’s still listed on Google. That’s not what’s important. What I wanted to say to others out there is, how sad I was to find out the news. I really like those two as a couple. From the first impression rose, to Ed’s departure to go back to work, to his returning, I really liked their personalities.
We are always quick to condemn reality stars and to make fun of their break-ups, but why would anyone do that? Like Jake and Vienna for instance. I dislike Jake’s personality, however, I feel for him as a person and I’m sure he will be just fine.

Jillian and Ed have been together over one year, so their relationship did stand the test of time, with relocations to Chicago, and all of that behind the scene gossip with Ed in the beginning. I’m sure each will plunge back into their own identies and make it just fine.
However, as a viewer of that one special season, I find myself feeling like an ‘era has ended’ in reality t.v. somehow with the demise of this couple. Classy and sophisticated, these two looked like a match and I kept waiting for the wedding on ABC. Call me a sap, call me what you want, but I really thought Jillian was top noch, and next to Ed they sort of rocked it as a ‘hot couple.’
Now there are these stories about her having to return the ring. If it’s not bad enough they must endure a public split, people are making fun of that part of the equation, too. I’m not sticking up for reality t.v. I am however asking those viewers that sit there so ardently and judge as a view to remember they are just normal couple with feelings, too. Good luck to both parties. If I had to choose a side (I haven’t really dug into why the broke up, but my imagination can pretty much fill in the details), but of course, it would be Jillian Harris. The best bachelorette I’ve seen ever on ABC. Good luck Jillian. Machel Penn Shull

The Bachelorette Party Finale

The Bachelorette Party Finale

What can I say? Sometimes life smiles down upon you and you are granted something special…like sharing the BEHIND THE SCENES of the exclusive Bachelorette Finale Party for the cast of the show. I have to thank Juan (one of my favorites from the beginning for sharing his photos with me on my website!

Let me just say as I am writing this and downloading photos, how upset were you the ATFR show was not on last night? I hate to even admit that I care that much, but I do. Let’s discuss Kiptyn Locke for a quick sec. I am convinced now more than ever he was only ‘half into it’. He didn’t look that devastated to me. He didn’t even propose. I can’t imagine him ever getting down on one knee and proposing. Some guys are just perpetual bachelors. Also, Reid Rosenthal??

Reid and Jillian together again...just friends though, I think~

I loved it when Reid came back for Jillian. I was so touched by his proposal. I don’t know about you, but I was thrilled to see TWO PROPOSALS. Everyone was predicting zilch, but Jillian go, two! A dream for any girl. Jillian Harris just rocked as the Bachelorette. I haven’t mentioned it, but I will now, one of my friends from Rancho Santa Fe, Julien Hug was one of the contestants. He was featured as the guy jumping out of the plane on the beginning promos. He made it on two of the episodes. Also, Jessee, from Carmel Valley was another favorite of mine. I thought he would be a good catch for some beauty out there.

Two of my favorites! Reid and Jessee

I feel now that the show is over, that there is really no big revelation on ATFR. That was just all hype by ABC to keep us watching two nights in a row.

JESSEE, JUAN AND JULIAN, ALL J"s!!

JESSEE, JUAN AND JULIAN, ALL J"s!!

I don’t know about you, but there were almost too many J’ beginning names to keep everyone straight. Kiptyn was the easiest name to remember besides, Jillian.

Jillan still loves Juan! Awe, check out that diamond!

The gang is back in townSo tell me what you think? Were you happy about the ending? I was, even though I originally predicted Reid. Ed and Jillian seem pretty happy. I hope that’s the same on the final show.

Thanks again Juan for sharing your photos!! Just loved the show and thrilled to see a somewhat happy ending. Don’t worry about Reid. I’m sure he’s been snatched up in his hometown already.

Oh my goodness! Quite a stir. Now I am intrigued more than ever. Thanks Readers for giving me your insider tips. So Ed is the winner eh?
She always had butterflies for ed, let him come back and now as my fabulous readers have filled me in, it sounds as if my hopes and dreams of Reid and Jillian may be over as I tune in like the rest of us to watch, Ed win Jillian Harris in the end. Looks my my sources might be wrong. I just can’t wait to watch the conclusion to this long and drawn out drama, which I now like just as well as the last Bachelor.
Just one thing~Do you think they will end up being the next Trista and Ryan?

The Bachelorette Finale spoiler-Kiptyn Locke next bachelor

Tonight’s episode of the Bachelorette will not be disappointing…Well, depending if you are hoping for the happily ever after moment like Melissa Rycroft shared while frolicking in the pool with Jason Mesnick, while Molly was just around the corner text messaging him the moment she was whisked away in the limo. No. Tonight’s episode is about Jillian Harris looking fabulous in pink. Not only does she look fabulous, she will end up kind of doing the switcharoo thig just like Jason. “ATFR” will reveal which man will propose to her on that show. She might have ended up with Ed at the end of the finale, but be prepared to watch Jillian Harris accept Reid Rosenthal’s proposal of marriage when it is all said and done.
I am hosting a party at my house for this fabulous evening, which should be one of ABC’s top rated shows of this month. Trust me, this will be some of the best t.v. drama we see all summer, while waiting for the return of our favorite t.v. dramas, i.e. CSI New York, and CSI Miami.
Take my advice: Do not miss the the show right after the season is over. Be ready to stay up all night either being disgusted or a believer in love…or better yet, impressed with ABC’s ability to manipulate the public, as they rake in the big sponsors. Good job Mike Fleiss on choosing Jillian Harris. She ended up being the winner of this whole wacky season. Forget Wes and that damned pilot guy. Jillian Harris is the only one worth talking about. And Kiptyn Locke? Didn’t I just see you at the Albertson’s by the Flower Hill Mall recently. I sure hope you give me an exclusive interview at the Next Bachelor.  At one point I thought you could be boring. However, after watching you climb the pole, encourage Jillie to new heights, then manage to make the jump to the bar like the flying trapeze, I have reconsidered…You are a risk taker and I like that.

Good luck on the next season’s show. I want an exlcusive as native columnist that works for one of your favorite newspapers-The Coast News!
