Take heed, Nick Viall and Vanessa Grimaldi. Take heed.
You may be blissfully in love and content beyond your wildest dreams right now (or not, based on last night"s After the Final Rose special).
In any case, even in the very best of romantic circumstances, love is often a losing game on The Bachelor, and for no fault of your own.
Time passes. Life happens. Fame – and the fire – fades.
That sounds cynical, we know. But it"s also factual. The Bachelor stars have not had the best track record when it comes to love lasting.
How bad is it? Simply by virtue of being together a year later, Lauren Bushnell and Ben Higgins are sure to rank among the best ever.
In 21 seasons of the show. That says it all right there.
Think Nick and Vanessa have what it takes to make it to the altar? Or at least go down as one of the few couples who gave it a real shot?
The jury"s still out on that, to say the least. Check out the full Bachelor relationship rankings by length and see how bad the odds are …
