Bachelor Sean Lowe proposed to Catherine Giudici in an emotional and “dramatic” wedding proposal on Monday night’s Bachelor finale. The couple then rode into the sunset on an elephant in Thailand… and in a surprise twist, they are still together.

What a dramatic moment in Bachelor history! (Yes you must say “dramatic” 50 times when speaking of The Bachelor.)

Lindsay Yenter, who many thought would be “the one”, went home heart-broken.

And in more shocking dramatic news, Sean and Catherine will be married where they first met – on television.

And in more dramatic news, Desiree Hartsock will star in this summer’s ninth edition of ABC’s The Bachelorette. The 26-year-old fashion designer was sent home after her home-town date… and after Sean encountered her skeptical brother.

One thing I found interesting in After the Final Rose episode was that both Sean and Catherine spoke openly about getting through the Bachelor journey because of their faith – something that really wasn’t addressed during the season. Lowe is reportedly a born-again virgin but the Bachelor producers pretty much ignored that fact.  Viewers were led to believe that Lowe and his dates may have spent the night in the Fantasy Suites but it wasn’t clear.

In any case, congrats to the happy couple and good luck to Des on The Bachelorette!

Brad Womack, ABC's The Bachelorby Maria Lianos

Take a guess… of the tons of men who are available and ready to settle down, who do he producers of The Bachelor choose?

Brad Womack, who had his shot but failed to pop the question to either  Jenni Croft or DeAnna Pappas back in 2007.

After admitting that he had commitment issues and undergoing “intensive therapy”, the 11th Bachelor is getting a second chance at love on ABC’s upcoming 15th season.

According to ABC, which confirmed the news Monday, Brad has been on a “quite painful journey of self-awareness” since turning down both women.  The 37-year-old Texas resident is “a better person” who is “more ready than ever to start a wife and family.”

“At first I was skeptical,” Bachelor host Chris Harrison says of the Austin bar owner. “But the more I thought about it, the more I fell in love with the idea of him coming back, getting another shot.”

There’s going to be more pressure on Brad to find a woman because if he doesn’t choose someone this time, it’ll be on his head!  Secondly, do we really care to see Brad find love the second time around? 

Is it even fair?  He had his shot, why not have a completely new Bachelor?

Brad recently appeared on Ellen and said:  “I believe it can work. I don’t care if people call me an idiot or don’t believe those words coming out of my mouth. I truly believe that it can work. So here are 25  to 30 women that I never, ever would meet in regular life, and I’m clearly doing something wrong. I’m still single.  So why not? I really do believe that this can work.”

Hmmm sounds to me like he’s trying really hard to convince himself that he can  “it can work”. 

What do you think of Brad Womack getting another chance on The Bachelor?
