IT’S THE BACHELOR FINALE!
IT’S ABOUT DANG TIME!
AND Harrison keeps throwing out a teaser about something HUGE that’s going to happen that has NEVER happened before.
So I’m of course thinking it’s going to be a really big deal!
Does our Prince propose to both girls?
Does he not even show up at the rose ceremony?
Does one of the girls clock him when he breaks up with her?
Is one of the girls with child?
WHAT IS IT HARRISON? WHAT’S THE BIG NEWS?
Know this.
Harrison is a liar.
Stop holding your breath for something HUGE to happen. Cuz it’s not.
(If you’re not a fan of the recaps, make sure you scroll down to the bottom of the post for SEVERAL sale alerts on items that I’ve previously featured on the blog!)
Okay.
Right out of the box, we need to discuss something…
Is Harrison sporting a flat top?
Even if he is, I don’t care.
#Harrisoncandonowrong
#exceptwhenhelies
There are some twists and turns on our journey tonight…but the first big twist is the setting.
This year the finale of this Bachelor isn’t spent on some AMAZING (drink) tropical island like it always is. No m’am. This finale is spent in the great state of Iowa.
Where although not a law, it seems as if it is strongly encouraged to wear flannel.
#putthatonyourstateflagiowa
Fyi: sometimes I lol at something I write.
And I giggled the entire time I was adding the little flannel addendum to the flag. Because yes, that is the Iowa flag…..with just a little extra flare at the bottom.
Chris arrives at the house, and it’s very cute to see how happy the family is to see him (and how much all of his nieces and nephews absolutely adore him).
I really like his whole family, and I’ve got to give this one kid major props.
He’s taken the run and jump maneuver to a whole new level. He made the stylistic choice to not wrap his legs around Prince Farming, but instead to suspend his legs in mid air behind him.
I liked it.
I’m going to give you the first perfect 10 of this season kid!
First Up, Whitney gets to meet the family!
I’m not a huge fan of her flannel dress….but I’m still her asymmetrical zip coat’s #1 fan (you can find a similar one HERE that is ON SERIOUS SALE!, thank you Peyton!).
She sits down with the family for dinner and makes an AMAZING (drink) toast about how much she loves their son and their brother….and how thankful she is to be welcomed into the family….and everybody at the table is crying by the time she’s finished.
She’s super genuine, and it’s really sweet.
Like REALLY sweet.
And you can already tell that everybody is completely smitten with our baby maker.
Whitney sits down with the sisters and WOWS them.
She says all the right things…..and here’s the deal….I think she actually means every single thing she is saying.
She basically ROCKS the interview portion.
Chris then sits down with the sisters.
And they give Chris their stamp of approval to Whitney.
But their stamp of approval seems to be confusing for our farmer, and it looks as if Chris is going to start bawling.
They ask what his reservations are about Whitney, and he probably should have just said “Uh…She’s not Becca.” Because OH MY WORD he stammers and carries on and on about Becca.
He cannot make a complete sentence to save his life.
Chris, here’s a tip buddy….sentences needs nouns AND verbs.
Whitney talks with Chris’s mama, and tells her that she doesn’t THINK she’s in love with Chris, she KNOWS. She then goes on to tell Ma Farmer that she raised an amazing man.
And Ma Farmer is bursting with pride.
She tells Whitney that she knows that Chris will be an AMAZING (drink) father and dad.
And then Whitney tells her that she can’t wait to call somebody “mom” again.
I do have a question: Do people still do this? Call their in-laws mom and dad?
Cut to Chris hanging out in a huge garage-shed type thing with the men in his family.
And again, even though they haven’t even met Becca yet, he’s talking about her.
I do have to wonder if the conversation was really leaning this way, or if it just looks like he can’t stop talking about Becca due to editing?!?
And this guy (one of his brother-in-laws) is flat out genius.
He calls Chris out and is all “Is Becca the girl at the bar that no one can talk to? Because we all know that’s infinitely more attractive to a guy.”
PREACH.
Time for Becca to meet the family.
And right off the bat, I’m unsure of Chris’s purple v-neck and collared sweater combo.
And I’m left wondering why Becca’s handler didn’t tell her to BUTTON HER SHIRT.
That’s a lot of boobie to be showing in a chambray shirt.
#buttonitupsister
You can tell that everybody is kind of on guard thinking that they aren’t going to like Becca as much as they liked Whitney.
But, within a matter of minutes, she is laughing and cutting up with the family and they are having a good ol’ time making jokes about “downtown” Arlington and how weekend fun consists of going to the post office.
But does it now look like she is wearing a chambray bath robe?
Now it’s Becca’s time to sit down with the sisters.
And she is 100% honest with them.
She tells them that she is falling in love with him, but she doesn’t know if she’s in love with him yet.
She also says that she will NOT pick up and move until she knows 100% that this is the guy for her.
And she’s just not there yet.
And listen y’all.
That’s okay.
It’s actually really REALLY smart.
Becca’s feelings are real and FINE.
But they don’t really fit into Bachelor world.
And here are the sister’s faces as she’s talking.
Becca sits down with Ma Farmer
And Ma says “I think it’s up to YOU. I feel that.”
And poor Becca is completely overwhelmed.
And she still needs to button up her shirt.
To be honest, I’m a little surprised that Ma Farmer didn’t just reach over and do it for her.
Becca and Chris leave, and then the family sits around and talks the girls over.
And I love his family.
They are REAL and FUN and SWEET.
Pa Farmer says “Whitney’s the sure thing..but I think Becca is who Chris wants.”
OUCH.
And it’s right about now that I start hoping that Chris has some good quality long johns, wool socks, and those little heated hand and foot warmers you get when skiing.
Because MY WORD production made him walk around in the FREEZING COLD farmlands A LOT.
Okay, so family time is over…But Chris still gets to have one more date with each girl.
Becca is Up
Chris and Becca hang out in Becca’s hotel’s room.
He says “I want everything you can give me….because I’m struggling.”
She still says “I’m falling in love with you, and I hate the fact that I’m just not there yet.”
He is BEGGING Becca to love him.
BEGGING.
He asks her why she isn’t in love with him….and she just says “I don’t know.”
And he somehow takes that as encouraging news.
CHRIS.
LISTEN TO ME.
Becca reminds me of that girl is in high school that doesn’t love her boyfriend…but she’s sooooo sweet……and she likes her boyfriend a lot…..so she doesn’t want to hurt his feelings, by you know, breaking up with him. So she doesn’t. She just stays with him because it’s easier.
But does everybody agree that she wants to break up with him?
Actually….that she wants him to break up with her…you know, so she doesn’t have to.
Whitney Time
Time for a little more alone time with Whitney.
He takes her to his happy place, his farm.
They meet at his snow covered farm in what must be sub-zero temps, and Chris tells her they are going to pick corn.
And I think she’s genuinely excited.
Which is AMAZING (drink).
CHRIS. LET THIS BE A SIGN. WHITNEY IS THE GIRL FOR YOU. PERIOD.
They climb up in his tractor and take off.
Good choice to go to a hotel with Becca and the farm with Whitney.
Because I’m thinking Becca would have had a really hard time acting interested and excited….whereas Whitney actually was interested and excited.
Which is impressive.
He takes her to his house, and she is ALL IN.
And in case you aren’t clear.
Whitney is in love and she’s ready to move to Arlington, get married, and start a family.
WHO IS THE THE GIRL FOR CHRIS?
Chris is now done seeing both girls, and he’s left alone with his thoughts.
And Neil Lane.
You know Mr. Lane was TICKED when he found out he was going to Iowa this year.
I do have one thing to say to Neil.
Neil. PUT AWAY the rings with the pink diamonds. Keep those for your collection at Kay.
Chris enters the barn, and it’s clear that the interns had gone to Pinterest and typed in “fancy barn” or something equally ridiculous.
And was it just me, or did it look a little like a booth at First Monday in Canton?!?
Becca is the first to get out of the limo, and many of us breathe a huge sigh of relief.
Whew.
He’s not going to propose to the girl who is CLEARLY just not that into him.
I tell you one thing we do know.
It’s FRIGID in the barn.
Don’t believe me? See what all those arrows are pointing too?
That’s Chris’s breath.
Chris breaks up with Becca.
And you know what that look on her face is?
That’s relief my friends.
That is actually a screen shot of her post break up face.
And then they interview her in the limo, and there is nary a tear. Not even one.
Yep. Becca is breathing a big ol’ sigh of relief with the rest of America.
Whitney pulls up to the barn, and the girl is about to toss her cookies in the limo.
She hugs Harrison and he says “You are shaking like a leaf.”
Um, Harrison. That’s because it’s FREAKING COLD.
#whitneyneedsapashmina
#doeseverybodyrememberpashminas?
She reaches the top of the stairs, they kiss, and then they stand and look at each other.
The silence gets to her, and she starts talking…and talking…and talking….
And then he talks, and says a lot of nice things.
And they are both shivering and making these weird cold faces.
Could they not have thrown a couple of portable heaters in the barn?
I mean, I understand that hay is flammable, but they didn’t seem to care about that when lighting hundreds of candles.
And then he gets down on one knee…and proposes…..with a gorgeous ring that does NOT have pink diamonds on it. Wise choice my man, wise choice.
Whitney is over the moon, and I actually think these crazy kids might have a chance at happiness!
Yes…I know it looked like he favored Becca throughout the entire episode…but I’m really hoping that was just some fancy editing….
Because I want to believe that these two really do love each other!
And I’m thinking this next shot needs to be blown up on canvas and put over the fireplace.
And they lived HAPPILY EVER AFTER.

I e-mailed Amy at Accessory Concierge yesterday to ask her about a certain pair of earrings.
She texted me right back and asked if my “ears were burning”, because she had just answered two e-mail inquiries that were asking if PTMT was going to have another code soon.
I told her that I had recently received a couple of e-mails asking the same thing, so she graciously agreed to a 48 hour site-wide code for 20% OFF!!!!!!

I went back through the last couple of months on the blog, and I grabbed some images of me in their jewelry (there were lots to choose from).

Mix and Match Mama says
Another season of awesome recaps friend :). I cannot wait to see what you write about the first episode of The Bachelorette next season…I'm already nervous for both girls!
Erika Slaughter says
I completely agree!!! That editing had to make it look like he favored Becca so much more. My favorite part of the recap? Your Iowa flag!!
Samantha says
I ask think fancy editing was at play to make it seem like he was more into Becca. This is the Bachelor, after all… It's all in the editing!
I would love to read your Bachelorette and Bachelor In Paradise recaps.
Sarah Kuykendall says
Yes, yes, yes to more recaps! They make my Wednesday start on a great note!
Heather Bramlett says
More recaps! You are awesome! Thank you
Kelly B says
Love the recaps! please don't stop!!!
Whitney and Blaire says
Yes to Bachelorette and Bachelor in Paradise! I am so glad I went to bed and did not stay up for that last hour because I knew there was no "big news" after that last rose ceremony. Not looking forward to more Britt though, I don't think my vision can stand too many more eye rolls.
The cargo jacket looks amazing with the lace dress, and the boots are gorgeous too.
xo, Whitney and Blaire

I ordered true to size and have loved it all winter! Great sale price now too :)!!

I come to your blog just for the recaps!! I mean, i end up finding other fun stuff to read along the way…but the recaps are HI-larious!!
Kristin says
I haven't watched the Bachelor in years. I gave up the year that guy picked NO ONE (and then they brought him back a few years later?! That was the jump the shark moment for me.)
BUT
Your recaps give me all I need to still keep up with the pop culture aspect of it, so I vote for more!!
I also would LOVE some recreations here of the outfits you see that you like. You are still a fashion blog first and foremost 🙂
Lastly, I caved and ordered Converse yesterday. But I went for the white!! Cuz I'm brave like that 😉
Laura Youker says
Yes more recaps! I love reading them!
Katy Oswalt says
You have to do the recaps! They are hysterical! Can you imagine how awesome it will be if #crazyeyes shows up at Bachelor in Paradise? DO IT. (please!)
Laurie S says
Your recap was AMAZING (drink of water). I cannot drink alcoholic beverages so I got water logged instead. I didn't bother to watch the show but your recaps kept me in the loop. Thanks for your hard work writing these recaps as well as your wonderful witticisms.
Meagan says
Don't recap bachelor in paradise, but for sure recap the bachelorette(s)!! 🙂
Kristen says
I don't watch the show, but LOVE your recaps!!! Better then watching! Please keep it up!!!
Gina Cogan says
First, I have to admit, I'm getting married in May and my in-laws want me to call them mom & dad but I find it SO weird. I love them, it's just weird calling someone else mom or dad!! Maybe with time…
Second, YES TO RECAPS. girl, you are HILARIOUS. definitely the best part of the week!
Shawnee says
You have to keep doing the recaps….I love them!! You are hilarious!!
I kinda like the long lace tank but not sure if I would actually wear it or not…you do look super cute in it with your military jacket and boots. I own 3 military jackets! 🙂 And I wont even say how many pair of Converse I now own. LOL

Can't wait to read your recaps every week. You are a hoot! And the reference to the barn looking like First Monday in Canton – classic! Don't stop the recaps – they make my morning!
Kathryn Story says
Yes!!! Please recap… They are hilarious and the highlight of my week. 🙂
Erin says
I've enjoyed your recaps so much that I tried watching the Bachelor last week. I lasted about 60 seconds. Turns out, I really just enjoy your commentary, but still dislike the show. So bring on the recaps! 🙂
Jenn says
I read that Becca's final date actually happened last, which makes sense why he was basically begging and pleading with her to tell him something. I think they edited it in a different order so that it wouldn't look as bad that he was begging her for something. I want Chris and Whitney to work out, but I have my doubts based on just HOW crazy he was about Becca. Saying that even up until the time they walked up he didnt know what he wanted to do? Uh…ouch. If I were Whitney I would not want to know that (so it's good she said she doesnt watch)
Cindi says
Yes, PLEASE keep doing the recaps. 🙂 Love them.
Three Gals and a Guy says
YES PLEASE, MORE RECAPS!! I can't imagine what things you will have to say about Bachelor in Paradise!!

Yesssss! Please keep doing recaps!!!! I called my FIL "Dad" almost as soon as my husband and I started getting serious. It just made sense. It took me till we were engaged before I could call my MIL mom. They have truly become another set of awesome parents for me!
Did you notice on the after rose that Becca and Whitney were wearing the same dress..just different colors????
Also…I still don't know if it was a fluke but Amazon had all their Hunter Boots on sale for $15. I got a red pair for $23. That included expedited shipping. I'm so excited but cautious. Hopefully if it was a mistake on their part, I'll get my money back.

Gretchen Adams says
Sooooo, did anyone see him on Ellen? She showed him a picture of Whitney and said she looked like a mother…then I SWEAR he says "She IS a mother". And Ellen doesn't react. Did anyone else hear that?? I really thought that was the big surprise at After the Final Rose. Oh, AND the preview before the show started shows a blurred out pregnancy test. Anybody, anybody…Bueller?

Yes to the recaps…you have such a great sense of humor!!! I'm sad it's over too. I would be very concerned if I were Whitney. I know she doesn't want to watch the show but with social media she is bound to hear about how he was so desperately wanting Becca to fall for him. But I do wish them the best on the farm!! Maureen T from New York
Anonymous says
Yes please recap BIP and the Bachelorette, along with the Bachelor. Yours are the best. I don't know if I just got swept up in the show but I really believe he wanted Becca to say she loved him because I think he wanted to pick her. I wish he and Whitney the best but as always, Im not feeling super hopeful.

Please keep the recaps coming!!! If Iowa is the home of flannel, I guess I had better go out and purchase a flannel shirt or two.
Claire says
You could recap pretty much anything and I would read it but I will definitely read your recaps!
live compassionately says

mom26kids says

Me as well as my husband love reading your re-caps!
Mimi says
I love your recaps! I probably would have been just like Becca. I wouldn't want to get rejected but I sure wouldn't want someone I barely know proposing to me! I would definitely not move to the middle of literally nowhere with him either.
Bethany says
Please keep recapping! I love your recaps! Recap all the things!
Kim says
I only watched it because of your recaps, so please continue. I need more of that in my life- laughter, that is. I liked both girls from the beginning but I don't know how anyone could be so eager (side eye Whitney) about a guy they barely know who is admittedly falling in love with multiple women.
Theresa says
yes yes yes – give me ALL the recaps! 🙂
Maggie C. says
Yes please to the Bachelorette and BIP recaps! Also, did you catch when Chris' mom reach out and touched Becca's hair when they were talking?! I really like her but thought that was a little weird.
April Parrish says
Girl, I know you are so glad another Bachelor season is behind you..but you always make me laugh. Job Well Done! You asked if ladies still call their in-laws Mom and Dad…Let me answer that for you NO!!!! I refer to mine as OUT-LAWS rather than in-laws!!!! LOL!!! Love them, but their in-laws or rather out-laws!!! Sssshhhh don't tell them!
So glad that Chris picked Whitney because she seems genuinely sweet!
And seriously what was Chris Harrison talking about after the final rose that was going to be a huge deal between Chris and Whitney…he lied!
I purchased the cushion cut bracelet for Accessory Concierge and LOVE IT!!!

Props to the perfect 10 jump and someone telling Chris how to form sentences. Love the recaps! My friends and I crack up! Please keep them up! Bachelor in Paradise will provide a ridiculous amount of material to write about 🙂

I would LOVE to read your Bachelor in Paradise recaps! I told my husband that I was sorry the show was over because I was going to completely miss your posts! They are the best! Imagine the fun you could have with Paradise! It'll be a goldmine of stuff to make fun of!
Anonymous says
YES MA'AM to more recaps!!! In fact, I think we'd all love it if you recapped ALL the shows, everywhere!!;). They are the best, and why I read!
abbymartin says
I've recently discovered your Bachelor[ette] recaps, and I LOVE them! I've been re-reading old seasons all day ( becausewhat else would a teacher do during spring break?). One thing I found awesome is that during Des' season when she went to Zak Waddell's (who I loved, btw) house during hometowns, you said you wanted to start a petition to have his totally cute sister be the next bachelorette. I DIDNT EVEN REALIZE THAT CARLY FROM THIS SEASON IS HIS SISTER!! My mind was momentarily blown…She may not be the next Bachelorette, but she was still on the show. You called that one! Get it, girl!
Can't wait to read the recaps next season with TWO Bachelorettes 🙂
Jane H says
I live for your recaps!!

DIYbyDesign says
First – a definite yes to more recaps. LOVE your recaps…maybe even more than the show. Second – I really hope Chris loves Whitney as much as she loves him. Hopefully it was just the editing with Becca to make it appear he was really struggling. I know you didn't talk about the after the final rose show, but I didn't like how Chris Harrison kept trying to have Whitney discuss how much Chris struggled with his final decision after she clearly told Harrison she had not watched the show. Kinda thought that was a little mean. Love your blog.
