Wings March 4, 2015 Share March 4, 2015 (edited) I do recall reading something to that effect. I don't remember the exact wording either, but I recall that it was weeks ago and thinking that I couldn't begin to guess what it could be aside from maybe one or more of the players having a some kind of contract worked out with the show for what would go down. Any theories? One is that he needed to talk to Becca again not feeling he had ended things the way he wanted. It is not cheating on Whitney with Becca, that is for sure. Virgins don't all of a sudden decide to sleep with their friends man. It could be about Chris being told to leave Kaitlyn for F3 because they had already decided they wanted her for bachette. But that makes no sense to me either. It would make sense if he knew for sure Whitney was his F1 so it didn't matter who was F2. From what we have seen he was probably not sure at that point.

kira28 March 4, 2015 Share March 4, 2015 It doesn't make sense to me that Becca was his chosen one all along because he seems to have mad chemistry with Whitney and was all about Britt until recently. He was also very into Jade. Becca seems like she's there by default IMO. Also I swear Chris said something along the lines of he wasn't sure til the last minute who he was sending home, Becca or Kaitlynn. So if Becca was his choice wouldn't the girl he was letting go either be Whitney or Kailtynn.

MsPH March 4, 2015 Share March 4, 2015 I don't think Becca's been his chosen one all along, but she's definitely been on his radar since she stepped out of the limo. His reaction said it all. I think he was really impressed by her during their horseback riding date, which is why she got a second one-on-one right after, despite it being Kaitlyn's "turn". By the end of her HTD he seemed totally smitten to me. She also seems to get the dates where they do things Chris likes to do in his normal life. Outdoorsy stuff, just hanging out at home talking, walking around an agricultural village in Bali... And I disagree about the lack of romantic chemistry. Just look at their hands. They're constantly playing with each others' hands. I find that quite intimate. Whitney really impressed him on their first date with the fake wedding crashing and she has been all in since day one. Of course he'll keep the sure thing around in case all else fails and most have failed. That doesn't mean she's the one he wants to give the final rose to. She just hasn't given him a reason to dump her, quite the opposite. She's watched this show since high school and she knows how to get what she wants. I think she may get the prize too, but I'm not convinced it'll last very long. I don't see the mad chemistry between them to be honest. It's mainly her talking and him listening, her initiating the kisses and hugs and him going along with it. Just seems a bit one-sided to me. Like she could have the same amount of chemistry with a wooden log, since it's all coming from her side. 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/10518-season-19-spoiler-thread/page/17/#findComment-890682

FireFoxy March 4, 2015 Share March 4, 2015 Exactly. Chris has been all about Whitney since the wedding with some attraction to Britt and Jade. Jade or Britt could've easily made it into the F2 but they would've been more of a "screw 'em and leave 'em" kind of situation. The way he has been with Whitney since that date has been very telling. Plus the mural date and meeting his friends sealed the deal for him. Jade was probably going to be F2 but then the nude pics situation happened and he had to cut her. 3 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/10518-season-19-spoiler-thread/page/17/#findComment-890710

It is easy to imagine dad saying, "I think Whitney's a sure thing, but Becca is coming around, too" and "It's hard to tell who Chris wants" to make the statement they showed combining VO and TH into, "I think Whitney's a sure thing but Becca is.... who Chris wants." Hope so, anyway, as I'd feel bad for Whitney if all this talk about Becca turned out to be real.

Article about the finale next Monday: By Elizabeth Kwiatkowski, 03/04/2015 The Bachelor host Chris Harrison has teased a little bit of what viewers can expect during next week's nineteenth-season finale. The show's star Chris Soules has two women still in the running for his heart: Whitney Bischoff, a 29-year-old fertility nurse from Chicago, IL, and Becca Tilley, a 25-year-old chiropractic assistant from San Diego, CA. During next week's finale, both women will meet Soules' family in Iowa before he has to make his final decision. "We go back to Arlington, and his parents get involved and are the voice of reason. He sees the light in many ways after he talks to them, but they don't mince their words and it shakes Chris," Harrison told TV Guide in a recent interview. "I don't think there is a perfect choice or an easy choice, and he's clearly in love with both so it's an emotional one for sure." Harrison said fans unfortunately won't see "a magical storybook romance" play out with Soules and either of his Final 2 bachelorettes. "Chris has narrowed it down to two great, but very different women... It's a dramatic finale you don't want to miss," the host wrote in his Yahoo! TV blog. The Bachelor's finale will air as a three-hour event on Monday, March 9 starting at 8PM ET/PT on A Read more at http://www.realitytvworld.com/news/the-bachelor-host-neither-whitney-bischoff-or-becca-tilley-is-perfect-choice-for-chris-soules-no-magical-storybook-romance-17566.php#QbrIVpeXTfueBYr2.99 Edited March 4, 2015 by wings707 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/10518-season-19-spoiler-thread/page/17/#findComment-891282

Pulling a Mesnick would make him "the most hated man in America", which would most likely mean no DWTS. I could actually see a scenario where the woman he chooses - whether it's Whitney or Becca - dumps him after a few months when she realizes Chris is not enough of a prize to give up her city life for. Then Chris would be the "heartbroken" one, which would get him enough sympathy votes to last 2-3 weeks on DWTS.

Of course Becca's not going to let anything happen before marriage, which is why, after the shine of the Bachelor wears off (well, there's less shine this season, but still) he realizes that Whitney is a much better pick for him. He's less intrigued with Becca and Whitney is there, proclaiming she's willing to leave everything to move to small town America and start popping out kids. So he changes his mind and chooses Whitney. Wasn't there a post about Whitney posting an instagram/twitter photo of herself with him on V-Day? I didn't see it.

DWTS only lasts 2 months, and I can't imagine Chris will make it through to the end. So they have some time to get to know each other in L.A., with enough social opportunities to ease into it. Immediate 24/7 togetherness is a daunting thought right off the bat. They've probably only had a few brief visits thus far and heavily supervised.

Thanks for the info. In that case it does make more sense to me, because hopefully he and his chosen one can bond and get to know each other in LA once the Bachelor finale has aired. It would certainly be pretty jarring to go from the mansion to Bali to the farm. Maybe a little stint on DWTS in LA will be a decent in between step for them.

I think Chris is more introverted (or "enigmatic" as Kelsey said) and can see where he appreciates Whitney's bubbly, outgoing nature compensating for his awkwardness. And yes, they had a "zany" adventure to talk about. But how many capers are Chris and Whitney going to be cutting on the farm? (And will she get tired of always making him look good, as he said?) It's easy to be feeling the romance when it's all fun, dress-up and wineries. The ordinary dates are more like what real life is going to be with Chris. It's not going to be crashing weddings in Iowa. I know what RS said about Whitney being the one, and I know there are many people on this board who think it's been Whitney since the wedding crash date. But honestly, I've seen Chris have chemistry with other women too. It wouldn't surprise me if Chris really is torn. 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/10518-season-19-spoiler-thread/page/17/#findComment-891972
Wings March 5, 2015 Share March 5, 2015 I think he may be torn. There is just so much you can manipulate with editing. We seem, SEEM to be getting some information that supports that this is not the love story we expect/want. There is some confusion here. Production can just do so much. Could Chris be that much of a tool that he is faking the confusion? Maybe but to this extent? Seems overboard. Whitney is F1. Got that. Just musing about how this really went down. You can only edit what you get and we have gotten a lot of confusion. Did they make him say this many times? Sure, they could have. Chris is not the guy to stand up to production and say, "I will not do that!" Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/10518-season-19-spoiler-thread/page/17/#findComment-892075
kazza March 5, 2015 Share March 5, 2015 They've probably only had a few brief visits thus far and heavily supervised. I don't know...if anyone wanted to be under the radar, I'd think Arlington, Iowa would be a good place to do it. You can seriously go around to everyone in town and get an NDA signed. I'm betting Whitney's practically a resident and already making playclothes for the children out of the curtains. Ok maybe not, but the thought is funny. 5 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/10518-season-19-spoiler-thread/page/17/#findComment-892506
MsTree March 5, 2015 Share March 5, 2015 I saw an Inquisitr headline just now declaring that Chris' engagement is on hold so that he can do DWTS!! You mean so he can 'test drive' pro dancer Whitney?

archer1267 March 5, 2015 Share March 5, 2015 Hulu's got a clip (I have a subscription, not sure if you can view it without) of Becca talking to Chris' mom. Mom asks Becca what she thinks about Chris, moving to Iowa etc. In the midst of talking about how great Chris is and how she feels when she's around him, Becca drops the bomb that she's not at the point yet where she's in love. I could swear that she said she was falling in love in Bali (?) The clip was only one minute long. Mom really liked Whitney, but liked Becca too. I wonder if Becca's hesitation about any declaration of love will be the deciding factor for the mother.

MsPH March 5, 2015 Share March 5, 2015 I still think he might pick Becca. It wouldn't be the first season the spoilers are wrong. I just don't think the edit makes any sense if Whitney is the "winner". Becca was hidden for most of the season and since the HTD we've been hit over the head with her inexperience and now in all the previews her hesitation. Whitney, on the other hand, has been talking about marrying Chris since their first date and is shown willing to do anything for him. They even called it "eagerness to please" in the press release. Aren't they supposed to make us think the opposite of what really happens? Why are they underlining it instead? Maybe the big twist is that Becca does come around and tells him she loves him and he still chooses Whitney, but I don't know. Something's off about the whole thing. I think Chris is legitimately confused. He looks absolutely exhausted and miserable in those previews for next week. I can believe he wasn't sleeping and was having tantrums like CH said, because he looks it. But I don't think the confusion is born out of his love for both women, I think it's because the one he wants isn't giving him the reassurance he needs and he's scared of ending up in the same situation that he was in with his ex, who wanted to live in California. Would be a waste of a good opportunity, especially when there's this perfect Stepford wife still in the running. CH said in that TV Guide interview that there wasn't a perfect choice for Chris, which would be weird if he was in love with Whitney. What is not perfect about her? She's in love with him, lives fairly close and is willing to drop everything for him to have babies now. Oh yeah, Chris doesn't love her, that's what. His own mom called him picky, so I don't believe he'll settle for the second choice. Might as well pick the one he wants, and if that fails, he's gonna have his pick of the litter now that he's a celeb. I may be totally wrong, but that's the way I see it playing out. 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/10518-season-19-spoiler-thread/page/17/#findComment-894254

Of course he's confused. in the "real world" of relationships, you would not be ready to be engaged until both parties have given up other relationships for a time. Men don't tend to date two or more women, then suddenly marry one and dump the other(s). Or if they do, we think of them as assholes. I think it's really tough fora bachelor to look like a good guy by the end of the show, because the premise forces a kind of deceit. If you "fall in love" with someone, you normally stop dating others. This show doesn't let anyone decide to soon, you have to gradually eliminate contestants each week. It might not be as romantic, but if the show was going to end up in REAL relationships, then the final rose would not be a proposal, but an agreement to date exclusively for a while. Which, in most cases, is exactly what it ends up being. dating while pretending to be engaged. 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/10518-season-19-spoiler-thread/page/17/#findComment-894619
saber5055 March 5, 2015 Share March 5, 2015 It's a dramatic finale you don't want to miss," the host wrote in his Yahoo! TV blog. This made me laugh. EVERY season is "The Most Dramatic EVAH!" in TB history. Chris Soules is dull as dishwater and they had to do something to get people to not fall asleep on Monday nights and tune in, PLUS talk about it nonstop in online chat rooms. Like here. Hey, Chris Harrison and TPTB: It's working! AGAIN! Me personally: After watching this entire season, I could care less who he picks or if he lives happily ever after. Or, more harshly, even lives at all. I also could care less about Whitney or Becca or their romantic happiness. I'm SO ready for BiP. 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/10518-season-19-spoiler-thread/page/17/#findComment-894761
ElectricCityy March 5, 2015 Share March 5, 2015 Any chance that Becca decides to leave on her own and Chris has no choice but to stick with Whitney? Somehow, I feel like Becca never expected to make it this far and probably just did this whole thing for the experience. She is not ready to have Chris' babies. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/10518-season-19-spoiler-thread/page/17/#findComment-894791
