    But, from what we saw in the previews, Lauren said she slept with someone 2 months ago and that totally broke Orion and he said that sex was off the table. Why? Don't they usually get something like 2 weeks notice that they have been picked for the show? Why wouldn't she be living her life if she had no idea that she was going to be married to a stranger? I am not sure how he will explain his reaction - as far as I am concerned, there was no cheating. She didn't even know OF him, much less know him, when she slept with someone.

    Yeah, it's a bit of a mystery right now. If it really is the fact that she slept with someone 2 months ago, I don't see how it's relevant. There are rumors that she slept with one of the production team, but that is unconfirmed. Someone supposedly did get fired for fooling around, but it's not certain whether it was Lauren and him hooking up, or something completely unrelated.

    Also, I should say, I'm not positive whether they move in together or not, but divorce is coming up quickly either way.

    Further spoilers regarding Lauren and Orion: their marriage doesn't last past the honeymoon, and they don't end up moving in together. Boy, talk about crash and burn. I thought they were one of the better-matched couples at first. I wonder if this outcome is what pushed the experts to bring in Chloe for Michael. Otherwise they're down from 5 to 3 couples before the season barely gets going.

    The Golden Bachelor - General Discussion

    All over again? I'm on the hunt, now! 😂 It's hard to find a decent man out there. 

    Gerry saying ILY in front of Faith's family is huge. And if he doesn't pick her, it will come off so so bad. I'm sure he was swept up in the moment, but he didn't have to say it right then and there. If it's not Faith, then his F1 has got to be Leslie and he's just taking Theresa for a ride because making the F1 choice will be easier. Like, he doesn't want to have another breakdown next week if right now he's feeling so high on Leslie. 

    Having said that… have you all seen the preview for the season that aired after the first episode? I'm posting it below. At the 1:38 mark, it's Gerry and a woman in a white dress literally walking off into the sunset. To me, it appears to be at the F1 proposal sight. This is just a guess, but the silhouette of the woman - the build of her body, the shoulders, her height - looks the most like Faith to me. I guess we'll see, but when I went back and watched it looking for clues, this stood out to me. 

     

    That scene already happened - I believe it was the episode of the photo shoot and that is when he went to comfort Nancy, and after their talk, they walked off together. I thought it was the clue to the F1 too, until I saw it happen in the episode.

    I'm really embarrassed for all four of them (Gerry included) with these "I love yous" and "I'm in love with you" to someone they hardly know. At their ages that is just foolish. Do they just get caught up in circumstances, is it the producers egging them on, or what? This isn't real life and they seem like they have just completely taken leave of their senses. I expect this of the young and dumb on the regular Bachelor, but these are grown-ass adults. I was literally cringing.

    I wasn't expecting a WTA this season. I hope most of the women have realized since taping that they deserve better (Kathy excluded, of course).

     

    I'm a little surprised by the "I love yous" too. But I was listening to the Dear Shandy podcast recap, and Sharleen (former contestant) was talking about how the whole experience affects the contestants - partly because they're confined in one location and the one constant topic is the Bachelor - it's drummed into them why they're there, to fall in love; and they get so desperate for dates because it's the only time they get to leave the house, so they're more than ready to fling themselves into it when they get the chance. Plus, the producers are always in their ear, and probably hinting that if they want to get a home town date, they'd better tell the Bachelor how they feel. It's a lot of pressure. And maybe at their age, they're like, the hell with it, what do I have to lose? 

     

    My opinions of the final three: I think Theresa is the best match for Gerry. Not sure why he won't pick her, but possibly the distance, and maybe she's just too intense, but I still think they could work. I think he ends up choosing Leslie. He seems the most attracted to her, she lives the closest, and their energy matches pretty well. I think the age difference with Faith, and her lifestyle are the reasons he won't pick her. I believe Faith goes home, and Leslie and Theresa are the final two.

    S17.E03: Hard Launch

    in Married At First Sight

    Becca said that she has some sort of condition that affects her spine, and causes her pain. I can't imagine how she does photography, i'd imagine being on feet all day would be super painful. She also has endometriosis, and it spread, so she had to have an appendectomy recently.

    Spoilers have arrived. Thank you to MAFS Fan for posting them.

    And....

    We have 5 divorces, including Michael and his replacement bride Chloe. Orion and Lauren end up divorcing pre-decision day due to allegations of cheating on Lauren's part. This is a first, I think, that none of the couples chooses to stay together on Decision Day.

    I'm a little bummed because I decided to watch this season after skipping the last couple, and now it feels like a waste. I had hopes for Lauren & Orion, and Becca & Austin...small hopes, but hopes. I wish this stupid show would realize that we watch for the love story, not the drama. How long can they keep producing it when they don't get a single successful couple out of it, multiple seasons in a row?

    Mindy has hung out with a bunch of MAFS guys (Bihn and Ryan from Houston), not that there's anything wrong with it, but I'm wondering if she's actually dating Steve? 

    They didn't confirm on IG if they were dating, but it appears he did fly out to spend time with her and they looked pretty cozy in the photos. So we'll have to see if it goes any further.

    Who did she wind of marrying?  I recall she made a big "play" for her assigned "husband" (believe his name was Will???) on the show but no matter what she did to entice him, he wasn't interested.  

    Yes, she was originally married to Will. Now she is with a guy named Mark - I'm not sure whether they're married or not, but they have a little boy named Jacoby who just turned 2, and they're expecting twins.
