Justin Bieber and Hailey Baldwin: ALL the Details on His Proposal!
It is widely reported from reputable sources that Justin Bieber and Hailey Baldwin are engaged. It has been less than a month since the two were spotted canoodling in public.
These two haven’t released a statement on their engagement just yet, but we’re learning details on the proposal.
And we now know when Justin picked out the ring.
A couple of sources shared some details with E! of exactly how Justin proposed to Hailey.
“They are engaged,” the first insider dishes to E!. “And it happened Saturday night in front of a crowd in Baker’s Bay.”
Thanks to some candid shots on social media, we got our first look at Hailey Baldwin’s engagement ring. E! also has some details on how that came to be.
“Justin made arrangements for the ring when they were in NYC,” the source explains.
The insider shares that the Biebs wasn’t just getting the ring for fun “and knew that he wanted to propose to her.”
So quickly after the famous exes reconnected! Wow.
“It was a sudden decision,” the insider admits.
Well, it would have to be. Just a few months ago, Justin and Hailey were still exes, and Justin seemed determined that his relationship with Selena Gomez was divinely ordained.
Things moved fast, the source explains, “but Justin always knew Hailey and him had a special bond that was incomparable.”
Does that special bond have anything to do with the fact that she’s an incredibly gorgeous model?
“The proposal was a very happy moment,” the insider reveals. “And Hailey was taken off guard.”
That sounds like such an anxiety-ridden moment for both of them.
“Her face was in shock,” the source describes. “But you could tell they are both so in love.”
A second insider also spoke up about their relationship.
“They are engaged,” this second source confirms.
Honestly, even though it’s widely reported by reputable folks, it’s comforting for many fans to hear it from multiple sources.
Justin and Hailey have not actually confirmed it.
“It happened while on vacation at Baker’s Bay,” the insider said, offering (and really confirming) context.
“They flew in from New York on the 6th,” this second source describes. “And have been having the time of their lives.”
“Justin is happier than ever and wants to be with Hailey,” the insider explains. “His family is very supportive and know he has been at his best lately. Everyone is very happy for him.”
So, how exactly did Justin know that the time was right?
That first source offered some insight.
“Ever since they reunited, they have been inseparable,” the insider shares. “And Justin knows he can’t live without Hailey.”
And apparently they had even discussed the idea.
“Justin and Hailey had talked about marriage before,” the source reports. “But Hailey didn’t think it would happen so quickly.”
Again, with some famous exceptions, people usually wait for more than a few weeks of dating before getting engaged.
That source also notes that it’s not only eyewitnesses who are in the know.
The insider specifically says: “A few of their friends know from Facetiming them.”
So that tells us that the two are happy to share their joyous news with friends.
But there’s no telling when they’ll make an official announcement.
It could be this week, or it could be that these two avoid actually confirming anything until they actually tie the knot.

"The Proposal" Contestant Accused of Facilitating Sexual Assault

Jersey Shore Recap: A Proposal Situation
The problem with reality television in the age of social media is that real-time spoilers are pretty much unavoidable.
For example, we’ve known for months that Mike “The Situation” Sorrentino is engaged to Lauren Pesce, so any suspense on last night’s Jersey Shore Family Vacation regarding whether or not JWoww will ruin his proposal because Mike threatened to throw a pie in her face (?!?!?) didn’t really have us chewing our cuticles with anticipation.
But before the guidos could make way for Lauren, they had to say goodbye to Vinny’s mother, Paula, and his uncle Nino.
There’s a strong possibility that Vin’s uncle is named Nino Guadagnino, but that doesn’t even crack the top ten on the list of funniest things about the guy.
So it makes sense that Vinny and company would decide to hit him with an old-fashioned roasting as a parting gift.
Unfortunately, Nino’s neurons have been pounded flat like a cutlet from five decades of constant chianti consumption, and he now only speaks a language of his own invention, a la Nell.
Meanwhile, Paula advises Ronnie that he should hold off on marrying Jen if he’s not certain that he loves her.
Yes, folks, it was bound to happen eventually — someone finally issued good advice on an episode of Jersey Shore.
As we mentioned earlier, there’s a subplot in which Jenni indignantly adjusts her old lady glasses while threatening to mess up Mike’s proposal to Lauren, but we’re almost certain nothing is gonna come of it.
And thus, as has so often been the case this season, the episode really belongs to Ronnie.
In a surprising conversation with the girls, Ron reveals that Jen cheated on him in the past:
“I want to be with her, I love her, I just don’t know where her heart is,” Ronnie says.
“Truthfully, I just don’t trust her.
“Nobody’s perfect. I did my dirt too so I can just say, like, ‘It was her.’ But everything I did was a reaction to her actions,” he continues.
“I’m also not used to being with someone like myself. Like, I met my match.”
Jeez, she’s been pregnant the whole time they’ve been together! Where did she even find the time?!
The sad confessions continue — appropriately enough — in the confessional room, where Ron breaks down in tears after confessing that he’s jealous of Mike’s, ahem, situation.
“I want a family, I want to be happy, I want to be in Mike’s shoes. I want to propose. I want to have the feeling of more than just, ‘We’re together and we have a kid.’ I want more than that,” says a tearful Ronnie.
“Everyone else goes and lives their lives, and they’re f—king happy and I don’t have all the s—t they have. It’s just me. Who the f—k is the right person at this point?”
We’d like to say there’s a happy ending to this situation, but — spoiler alert! — Ronnie and Jen are still fighting nonstop and making each other miserable.
In fact, just yesterday, filming on a second season of Family Vacation was halted due to the fact that the season was to take place in Vegas — where Ronnie and Jen live — and their relationship drama was so intense that the production had to be moved to Jersey.
When reality television producers are like, “Whoa, this is all way too intense,” you know things have gotten out of hand.
Watch Jersey Shore online to relive the many trials of Ron.

Kylie Jenner: Why She Turned Down Travis Scott"s Marriage Proposal
A number of fans have wondered if, now that Travis and Kylie have welcomed their baby girl, the two will make things official by getting engaged.
True, Kylie’s only 20 and they haven’t even been dating for a year, but they have a child together and both seem committed to this relationship.
Now that Travis has reportedly proposed to Kylie only for her to shoot it down, those same fans are wondering: why?
HollywoodLife reports that Kylie isn’t ready to marry Travis, as he found out to his chagrin on their trip to Miami.
“When Kylie and Travis were on their trip he spontaneously asked her to marry him, but she turned him down, for now.”
Oh, that sounds incredibly awkward.
But she’s reportedly very happy with him and even open to marriage … eventually.
“Kylie definitely wants to marry Travis, but she also really loves how things are the way they are.”
This may come as a surprise, since Kylie decided to have his baby, but she apparently has some realistic and mature ideas about
“She knows she rushed into this relationship, so she’s trying to slow it all down and enjoy every single stage.”
That sounds healthy. Again, they’ve been dating for less than one year.
Per this report, Kylie’s getting some much-needed advice from her family members.
She’s always been said to be particularly close with Khloe.
“Plus, she gets lots of guidance from Khloe [Kardashian] who is encouraging her to wait on the whole wedding thing.”
Kylie and Khloe have a special bond, perhaps in part because they both once thought of themselves as “ugly ducklings” (though neither were ever ugly) until their radical body transformations.
But all of Kylie’s sisters are apparently quick to give her good advice.
“But it’s not just Khloe, all of Kylie’s sisters are encouraging her to take her time as much as she can.”
This doesn’t necessarily mean that Kylie’s sisters believe that Travis Scott is some sort of deceiver who’s only in this for easy sex and an easier lifestyle thanks to Kylie’s money.
First of all, we know that Travis Scott is not a deadbeat dad.
We saw his eyes glisten with excitement as he attended multiple appointments for Kylie as she saw doctors and went through ultrasounds.
But someone doesn’t have to be a schemer for a rushed marriage to be a bad idea.
In general, rushing into marriage is a recipe for disaster.
The only time that it’s smart is if there are legal reasons (someone needs a Green Card, someone needs to not be compelled to testify against the other in a court of law, someone needs health insurance) … or perhaps if a reality series is paying you enough.
Again, and we cannot emphasize this enough, but extrapolating from Stormi Webster’s February 1st birth date, Kylie and Travis had been dating for perhaps one month when Kylie conceived.
Maybe they would still be together even if they hadn’t brought another human being into the world — Kylie loves with her whole heart.
But getting engaged to someone you’ve effectively just met is a recipe for disaster.
That said, there’s no reason for Travis and Kylie to not continue their happy and healthy relationship.
You don’t need a piece of paper or a special ring to be a family.
And, of course, no delay precludes them from getting married in the future. When Kylie feels that the time is right.
If anything, this story about Kylie shooting down Travis’ proposal is a reminder to everyone to not do those public proposals.
Travis was wise enough to not do this alleged proposal over a livestream, of course.
But if you propose in public, you should be absolutely certain (as in, talk about it) that the other person wants to get married.
Otherwise, they either say yes out of nervousness and guilt because of their audience … or say no and leave you both feeling incredibly embarrassed and awkward.
We wish Kylie and Travis the best of luck for whatever becomes of their relationship.

Clare Crawley & Benoit Beausejour-Savard: Engaged! Watch Their Surprise Proposal
Just like the real Olympics, The Bachelor Winter Games doesn"t last forever. Unlike the real Olympics, stars from the show gather for a World Tells All special.
While the world waited to see what decision Arie Luyendyk Jr. will make — unless they follow The Bachelor Spoilers and don"t have to guess — members of the Bachelor Nation got to see a different engagement on live television.
Clare Crawley"s love triangle seemed to be a bust, but ended with an on-air proposal. Watch it happen below!
Before we get to the video of the beautiful and moving proposal, let"s remember Clare Crawley"s journey.
She"s been … unlucky in love on the Bachelor franchise, folks. It happens.
On The Bachelor Winter Games, Clare at first seemed to be in a good place — sort of — because she was in the center of a love triangle between Benoit Beausejour-Savard and Christian Rauch.
Benoit is a Canadian native, while Christian is from Germany.
Clare and Benoit seemed to have hit it off, but Clare ended up parting ways with the Canadian native because she wanted tog et to know Christian better.
But then, she and Christian ended up calling it quits before the kissing contest. (The one that we mentioned on our The Bachelor Winter Games recap)
When they were all off of the show, Benoit of course did not yet know the details — he did not know that Crawley and Christian had split.
But he did reach out to her with a simple text, asking how she was doing.
"At that point, I was just thinking, ‘She’s ending up with Christian,"" Benoit admits in an interview to People.
"The sentence that kept running through my mind was, ‘It’s not the end of the two of us.’ But I knew at that moment that she may have fell for him."
On the show, she had told Benoit that she didn"t feel as strongly about him as he did about her. Clearly, that"s changed.
That simple text asking how she was doing blossomed into so much more.
"It didn’t happen, so she just called me and from there, it went better and better, and we spent hours and hours each and every day talking to each other."
Crawley gushed about the surprise proposal itself and her brand new engagement.
"It’s overwhelming, it’s crazy."
It is a little nuts — especially if it was a genuine surprise.
"Going on these Bachelor shows is a huge risk and you don’t know the outcome. It’s scary, but it’s a risk that you have to take to get the good in the end."
While the proposal was a surprise to Crawley, Benoit says that falling in love with her was a surprise for him.
"I didn"t expect this," he admits.
His mindset going into the show didn"t really prepare him for the love that he found.
"I was heartbroken on The Bachelorette: Canada but going back on this show I had an open mind. I was realistic that there might not be someone for me."
That"s a lot more down-to-earth than you hear from a lot of reality stars.
"But like you’ve seen on TV, I had the biggest crush ever on her. [But then] it wasn’t a crush, it was developing into something really deep and strong."
Benoit had a custom last-minute Neil Lane ring made for Crawley.
It sounds like they had at least discussed the idea of engagement, because he knew what kind of ring she wanted.
Honestly, though these two might still have some kinks to work out (again, this was all very last minute), it sounds really healthy that their relationship was allowed to grow off camera.
It"s much harder to be honest when millions are watching, folks.
Watch the video of their surprise proposal:

"Amazing Race" Stars Cody and Jessica Engaged After Runyon Canyon Proposal

Meghan Markle Talks Proposal, Discrimination... and That Ring!
Meghan Markle and Prince Harry may have kept their relationship on the Down Low for first few months of their courtship.
But the beloved couple is now engaged… and they can’t stop talking about it!
Within hours of confirming to the world that they are, at last, engaged to be married, the actress and the Royal stud muffin posed for a multitude of official engagement portraits…
… and then sat down for an interview with Mishal Husain of BBC News.
The soon-to-be newlyweds touched on a number of personal topics during the chat, beginning with the proposal itself.
“It happened a few weeks ago,” Prince Harry said. “It was a really nice moment. It was just the two of us.”
Markle referred to the question-popping as “an amazing surprise,” adding that it “was so sweet, natural and very romantic,” prior to delving into further details:
The proposal took place while the stars were roasting a chicken for dinner.
“He got on one knee … I could barely let you finish proposing. I said ‘can I say yes now?’” Markle said, while William laughed and added:
“Then there were hugs and I had the ring in my finger and I was like can I give you the ring? She goes – oh yes the ring.”
As for other subjects broached during the fascinating sit-down…
HOW DID THEY MEET?
On a blind date after being matched by a friend.
Harry confessed he had “never even heard of” Markle before the date, but said he was “beautifully surprised” when he made her introduction.
WHAT WAS IT LIKE TO MEET THE QUEEN?
Said Markle:
“To be able to meet her through his lens, not just with his honor and respect for her as the monarch, but the love that he has for her as his grandmother, all of those layers have been so important for me.”
WHAT IT LIKE TO BE HARASSED ONLINE?
Early on in their romance, Prince Harry issued a statement that asked critics to back off Markle after she received so much hate and grief online.
Harry says he was “totally unprepared for what happened” after the public learned of their relationship, while Markle described the backlash as “disheartening” and “discriminatory.”
(Her mother is African-American and her father is white.)
“At the end of the day I am proud of who I am and where I have come from and we have never put any focus on that, we have just focused on who we are as a couple,” said the actress.
WHAT WOULD PRINCESS DIANA HAVE THOUGHT OF MARKLE?
“Oh they’d be thick as thieves, without question,” Harry told BBC News, adding:
“I think she would be over the moon, jumping up and down, you know so excited for me. But then, as I said, would have probably been best – best friends with Meghan.”
OKAY, LET’S TALK ABOUT THE ENGAGEMENT RING…
“The little diamonds [on] either side are from my mother’s jewelry collection to make sure that she’s with us on this on this crazy journey together,” said Harry.
And Markle:
“It’s incredibly special… to be able to have [the ring], which sort of links where you come from and Botswana which is important to us. It’s perfect.”
WHAT WILL HAPPEN TO MARKLE’S TWO DOGS?
“One is now staying with very close friends and my other little guy is – yes, he’s in the UK, he’s been here for a while,” Markle says.
What does he think of Harry? And vice versa?
“I’ve spent the last 33 years being barked at, this one walks in, absolutely nothing,” the Prince said of the pup.
In other words: they’re totally best friends!
WHEN WILL HARRY AND MARKLE GET MARRIED?
No date has been set yet.
But the Royal Family has confirmed the general timeline of this spring.

The Bachelorette Ending: Rachel Lindsay Gets the "Proposal From HELL!"
We know that Rachel Lindsay regrets at least one choice from her season of The Bachelorette, but surely you’d think that that by the big moment — the epic proposal — everything would be just as Rachel imagined.
Apparently not.
In fact, according to this report, it sounds like Rachel’s big moment was a nightmare.
If you follow The Bachelorette Spoilers, you already know Rachel’s ultimate decision.
Before that, according to what an insider tells In Touch, Rachel Lindsay was extremely torn.
Because she: “fell in love with two of the men.”
Honestly, at the risk of sounding like Tina from Bob’s Burgers, we’re amazed that she didn’t fall in love with a lot more of them.
But knowing that she fell in love with both explains why the final breakup is so brutal.
“The fairy-tale moment that Rachel was dreaming of her whole life was a complete ordeal. It was the proposal from hell.”
Wow.
That is just … really direct.
We don’t know how much of that will translate onto the small screen when we all get to see the finale, but
“She even considered walking away from the whole thing because she was terrified of making the wrong choice.”
We actually knew that Rachel Lindsay thought about quitting The Bachelorette, so that makes a lot of sense.
It’s good to have context, though.
“In her mind, this whole thing was going to end differently.”
Well, as much as we might enjoy watching a spin-off along the lines of The Bachelorette: Polyamorously Ever After, the grim fact is that Rachel Lindsay went into this knowing that she’d have to settle on just one suitor.
So we’re not sure what she was expecting.
We think that what that source means is that Rachel Lindsay was expecting that just one suitor would rise above the others.
Like if she were in a room full of, somehow, dozens of copies of Trump’s adult sons but exactly one Michael Phelps and she had to choose which one to marry.
It turns out that dating in real life isn’t all that easy.
And choosing between a host of suitors isn’t as easy as it seemed when she wasn’t the one making the choices.
The Bachelorette‘s finale is several days away — somehow really soon and ages away..
Before we know it (and yet not a moment too soon), we’ll all get to see how this plays out.
Thanks to the Bachelor in Paradise scandal this summer spoiling the elimination of a The Bachelorette frontrunner after he was spotted down there, we know Rachel Lindsay’s choice.
It will be very interesting to see this dude, who was clearly overwhelmed with heartbreak after Rachel Lindsay didn’t choose him, nurse his wounded spirit on Bachelor in Paradise.
Honestly, we’d be surprised if he found love so soon after such emotional devastation.
Remember — the man who doesn’t become Rachel’s fiance reportedly broke down and cried after Rachel’s rejection.
No matter how happy Rachel may be now, this is going to be one bittersweet proposal.
(Or, possibly, just a bitter one)
This season of The Bachelorette is sure to go down as a controversial one.
Fans are definitely opinionated about the final suitors.
They don’t trust the Bryan Abasolo’s silver tongue and his promises to give Rachel everything that she’s ever wanted.
Bachelor Nation in general is enamored with Peter Kraus and are honestly terrified that
Eric Bigger … hasn’t actually managed to inflame passions one way or the other. That’s actually not great for a show like this.
We may already know, but the world will find out soon enough!

Kelly Clarkson Helps Fan Plan Epic Proposal: Was It a Success?
Kelly Clarkson is one of the most likable celebrities out there, so it comes as no surprise that she would go out of her way to help one fan with an epic proposal.
Kelly performed in Las Vegas on Tuesday night, and a fan named Alex Malerba swiftly dropped down on one knee to propose to Justin Blake during a meet and greet with the singer.
“Asking the love of my life to marry me in front of the one and only @kellyclarkson was an amazing moment!!!! HE SAID YES,” Alex captioned to his followers on Instagram.
Justin realized there was something more going on when he was taken to meet Kelly Clarkson backstage at the show.
But nothing could prepare him for the love of his life proposing to him in the presence of one of their favorite artists.
Malerba opened up to TooFab about the momentous occasion.
Malerba told Kelly, “‘My boyfriend is out here, and I was planning on proposing to him, and I want you to help."” And she was like, ‘You should have told me! I would have done it during the show, ‘ and I was like, ‘Well he’s out there. Can I go get him, and we can do that now?’ And she was like, ‘Yes we are gonna do it. We aren’t waiting another minute!"”
“And I just went running down to the end of the hallway, probably 50 feet away from me to get him and I was like, ‘Kelly wants to meet you."”
This is a prime example of how much of a nice person Kelly is. She seemed ecstatic to help out, and may even be attending the wedding.
Alex also said that he would love if she was the one to officiate the nuptials. Now that would be a great story to tell everyone.
Who can honestly say they’ve had a celebrity officiate their wedding?
Few people, for sure.
We have no idea whether Kelly will attend the event, but we’re sure Alex will keep the world updated via Instagram.
What do you think about all of this?
Sound of below!

Joseph Duggar-Kendra Caldwell Engagement Details: Which Duggar Sister Helped With the Proposal?
If you watched last night’s episode of Counting On, you know that it was a big season premiere for the Duggar clan, with two major events taking place over the course of one 24-hour period.
The festivities started with Joy-Anna Duggar marrying Austin Forsyth in one of the massively-attended ceremonies for which the family is known.
But we knew we’d be seeing Joy-Anna get hitched in the premiere. What happened at the reception came as something of a surprise:
The family announced several weeks ago that Joseph Duggar had gotten engaged to Kendra Caldwell, but we didn’t know that it happened at Joy-Anna’s reception.
Not only that, the bride herself participated in the surprise proposal, making for one of the more memorable moments in the many episodes of reality television the Duggars have produced.
The scene went something like this:
The crowd was assembled for what it thought would be the traditional tossing of the bouquet.
(And let’s face it, we were all holding our breath hoping the flowers would magically land directly in Jana’s hands.)
Then, Joy hit us with a twist worthy of M. Night Shyamalan.
Rather than throwing the bouquet in the air, Joy simply turned and handed the flowers to Kendra.
Joe then dropped to one knee and proposed to Kendra on the spot.
It was a high-risk maneuver, what with the whole thing taking place right in front of a massive crowd of friends and family.
Fortunately, the whole thing worked out in Joseph’s favor, and Kendra said yes.
It made for momentarily tense television, but in all honesty, Joe wasn’t really taking that big of a gamble.
After all, the Duggar courting process doesn’t leave much to chance.
Once a couple has been courting longer than a few weeks, it’s a very safe bet that they’re headed for the altar.
Sure, there are occasional breakups (see: The Strange Case of Josiah Duggar and Marjorie Jackson), but they’re few and far between.
So Joseph knew what he was doing and it worked out for everyone involved.
Of course, no one benefited as much as Jim Bob Duggar, who know gets to keep his family on TV for at least one more season with the promise of another wedding.
What’s the point in having so damn many kids if you’re not gonna cash in on them, right?

Gwen Stefani and Blake Shelton: Broken Up After Botched Proposal?!
It’s kind of hard to believe that Gwen Stefani and Blake Shelton have lasted this long, isn’t it?
They began dating in 2015, very quickly after their respective divorces from Gavin Rossdale and Miranda Lambert, and they’re remarkably different people.
Like, Gwen Stefani is Gwen Stefani, and Blake Shelton has deer tracks tattooed on his arm. They might as well be from different planets.
But still, despite the odds, Gwake has managed to survive for over a year and a half now.
Unfortunately, it looks like it could all be over now.
According to a new report from Life & Style, NBC executives were pushing Gwen and Blake “to act very affectionate and playful with each other” during the most recent season of The Voice.
In fact, they “really wanted an on-screen proposal,” but the season finale aired earlier this week, and obviously the proposal never happened.
And that’s because, in real life, the couple is “miserable.”
A source claims that Gwen “wants the world to think everything is perfect with Blake. But that’s just not the case anymore.”
“Gwen and Blake began to argue more. Then she started to realize they’re just too different to spend the rest of their lives together.”
They’re allegedly so close to a breakup that Gavin Rossdale is beginning to worry for the sake of the three children he shares with Gwen.
“Gavin is a very concerned parent and wants to be sure Gwen and Blake aren’t arguing in front of the boys,” the source explains.
“And he has concerns how the boys would handle a breakup.”
So this is all pretty sad, right?
It would totally make sense if Blake didn’t want to propose on The Voice, or if Gwen wouldn’t be down with it.
After all, they’ve always been somewhat private about their relationship, and we can’t see them enjoying something as gimmicky as an on-screen proposal.
But if the reason for the proposal not happening isn’t how lame it would be, if it’s actually because they really are having all these issues …
No one is prepared for that kind of sadness.
Remember when the news first broke that Gwen had filed for divorce from Gavin? She was absolutely heartbroken.
She’d been with him for several years, and she’d only had a couple of boyfriends before him … Blake is one of very, very few men to get so close to her, and losing him would be devastating for her.
We’re not ready to witness sad Gwen Stefani again. We simply cannot go through it.
So come on, kids. Work it out.

Rachel Lindsay on The Bachelorette Proposal: I"m Not Supposed to Talk About This, But ...
You don’t need to read The Bachelorette spoilers to know that this season has already been one of historic firsts for the ABC franchise.
Rachel Lindsay is its first African-American star.
She is also the oldest, at the age of 31.
She was the first Bachelorette to be announced before the season of The Bachelor was over … and before she was eliminated from it.
Why should fans expect things to be any different now that the beautiful, charming and funny Dallas lawyer has taken over the reins?
As such, Lindsay can’t help but gush about her recent engagement on The Bachelorette … even though doing so is a major shift in protocol.
“I am a rule breaker. But, I mean, I am so excited,” Lindsay told ET. “I cannot stop smiling, and normally I have a good poker face.”
“But not with this. This is new to me. I have never been engaged before and [the ABC powers that be] were like, ‘Just say it!"”
“I think [the decision to share] was kind of mutual.”
“They are like, ‘You know what? Just do it, because I think a lot of people will be more invested to know this worked for her.”
“You know, she so was not a believer. [She was] hopeful, but it actually happened.’ And so I think people will really, like, tap into that.”
Plus, “I love saying I have a fiance!” she added.
As for who that lucky man is? Don’t expect to know right off the bat, she says (seemingly unaware that Bachelorette spoilers exist).
“You won’t be able to figure it out. Like, you will see me go along and struggle with it and back and forth and it was a hard decision for me.”
“So I think that the way that I fell in love with him, America will too. I’m so excited, it’s just exuding from me … I can’t hide it!”
Lindsay said that the man of the hour “asked my parents, he got down on one knee … yes, all the traditional things happened.”
Rachel says she’s wearing a temporary engagement ring in public lately, because, “You got to be surprised with the Neil Lane bling.”
We’re guessing it won’t be small. No spoiler alert needed for that one. As for whether she’s already in wedding planning mode?
“I’m focused on the engagement right now. I think I want a big family, I have a huge family and I want everyone to come,” she said.
“I wouldn’t throw [the idea of a TV wedding] out. I am willing to do it,” Rachel adds, though that’s putting the cart before the horse.
Before we even get to meet her fiance, there are two dozen men left vying for her heart and over two months of TV drama to come.
Who stood out on The Bachelorette season premiere this past Monday night? Lucas, a.k.a. Whaboom himself … for better or worse.
“In his defense, I said I wanted to be entertained, and I think the guys got the memo with that,” Lindsay said, diplomatically.
“So, you know, everyone had their own interpretation of that [directive] and his was in Whaboom-style. But he was interesting.”
“I gave him points for being different, and so now, I just want to get to know Lucas. You’ll get to see how that all plays out.”
Bryan snagged himself a rather hot first kiss with Lindsay, despite her claims that she was not going to kiss on the first night.
Rule breaking once again!
Says Lindsay of that romantic moment:
“I said, ‘I’m not going to kiss the first night,’ and no one tried except for Bryan. And he tried in the most passionate way and I just embraced it.”
“I said, ‘You know what? He’s bold enough to do it, I’m going to go for it,’ and I’m glad I did, because it was a really good kiss.”
Peter also made a good impression:
“He walked out of the limo and I said, ‘OK.’ I mean, he is very, very handsome, and, you know, we had the same smile and he was nervous.”
“That’s what I appreciated.”
Then there’s Jonathan, a.k.a. The Tickle Monster. “I laughed the hardest the whole night with Jonathan, because he tickled me! I’m ticklish.”
“So, I mean, it was weird, it was different, but I laughed. I was entertained and there’s more to Jonathan. I mean, he is a doctor.”
Rachel cops to kissing more than one guy on the same group date at one point, as well as saying “I love you” to two different people.
Don’t expect smooth sailing, in other words. As for the million-dollar question, this attorney is pleading the fifth, so don’t bother.
Whatever happens, or doesn’t, in the Fantasy Suite stays there, people. Unless you’re Nick Viall and talk about lovemaking.
Anyway, it’s “the end” that Lindsay said Bachelor Nation should really watch out for – and we won’t be disappointed either.
“Its a journey,” she revealed.
“Yeah, it’s a journey.”
We can’t wait.
