If The Bachelorette spoilers are any indication, Becca Kufrin and Garrett Yrigoyen from Season 14 may have a real shot at love that lasts.
Specific issues regarding Garrett"s social media history aside, the two seem head over heels in love, so the odds of a wedding are good.
Or at least better than average.
If you just look at the venerable franchise"s track record, Becca and Garrett"s chances for long-term success are mixed at best.
Why do we say that?
Isn"t it obvious? This is a dating competition throwing two people together under a pretense that is literally impossible to sustain.
Can they transition into real life, establish a new normal and make it work? They can, but often times, they fall short of that goal.
We have ranked the 14 stars of The Bachelorette based on who was most successful at finding love during her stint as ABC"s queen.
See how they stack up from worst to first, and tell us whether you think Barrett will end up a success story or cautionary tale …
1. Jen Schefft
Bachelorette Jen Schefft broke up with winner Jerry Ferris on the After the Rose special because she just “wasn’t feeling it.” Not even making it to the day after the finale? That’s a low bar set for everyone else.
2. Emily Maynard
Emily Maynard and Jef Holm broke up just a few months after his proposal in 2012. He was never the right guy anyway. Should’ve picked Sean Lowe. Not that she or Sean (who is happily married to Catherine Giudici, who he met on The Bachelor) are overthinking it right now. Emily has since married and had a bunch of kids with Tyler Johnson.
3. Becca Kufrin
It’s too soon to tell how long Becca Kufrin and Garrett Yrigoyen will last, but they’re off to a good start? They’re one of seven Bachelorette couples still together, by our calculations, including the last three.
4. Andi Dorfman
Andi Dorfman found love with Josh Murray on The Bachelorette. Unfortunately, their engagement ended after only six months or so.
5. DeAnna Pappas
DeAnna Pappas and Jesse Csincsak broke up seven months after their finale aired. She went on to marry Stephen Stagliano, a high school teacher and the twin brother of former Bachelorette contestant Mike Stagliano!
6. Jillian Harris
Jillian Harris and Ed Swiderski broke up one year after their finale aired. Swiderski later appeared on Bachelor Pad. Jillian now appears on HGTV’s Love it or List it Too.
