It has always been a tradition for celebrated jeweler Neil Lane to offer a selection of engagement rings before the finale of The Bachelor. Jason Mesnick and celebrity love Molly Malaney met during season 13 of the reality TV show, but Malaney never received one of these coveted rings because she was technically the runner-up. Now that this famous couple has been married for five years, Mesnick wanted to rectify the situation by giving his wife a new engagement ring for their anniversary. Malaney told People.com, “The past five years have been the most amazing years of my life because of Jason. Our relationship and love started all because of TheBachelor franchise, and Neil has been such a meaningful person within the franchise, so I am so honored to have a piece of that relationship…This is the most amazing gift I’ve ever received!”
This reality TV star gave his celebrity love a beautiful ring for their recent anniversary. What are some ways you can make sure your romantic surprise goes off without a hitch?

The Bachelor season 19 “The Women Tell All” special brought all the women back together to reminisce about their time on the reality TV show and clear the air. They had many grievances with each other — and many more with The Bachelor himself, Chris Soules. Kelsey came under attack from all the contestants (yet again) for being conniving and fake. After taking the hot seat, Britt Nilsson immediately called out Carly for being a bad friend. Additionally, both Jade Roper and Kaitlyn Bristowe confronted Soules about why he rejected a relationship and love with them. He assured Roper that it was not because of her Playboy spread. Bristol, unfortunately, received a less clear answer. USAToday.com reported that Soules said, “I apologize….In that moment, I did the best I could and that’s all I know.” We can’t wait to see how The Bachelor season 19 will end next week!

The Bachelor is on the fast track to love! According to UsMagazine.com, Chris Soules is down to his final two leading ladies after this week’s dramatic episode. The Bachelor season 19 has culminated in this farmer being very optimistic about getting down on one knee during the finale to solidify a relationship and love. Kaitlyn was sent home by Soules and is no longer in the running to be part of a celebrity couple, but rumors are already flying that she may end up as the next Bachelorette. The Bachelor still has to chose between Whitney the fertility nurse and Becca the virgin. The three are set for an epic finish in Bali and are already well on their way to finding love. Who will be our Bachelor‘s leading lady?

From day one, The Bachelor season 19 star Chris Soules has said that a relationship and love with him means moving to his (very small) hometown of Arlington, Iowa. After asking potential celebrity love Whitney if she would be able to leave her life in Chicago for him, she gave him exactly the answer he was looking for. According to People.com, she said that, while she loves her job as a nurse, she would have “no hesitation” about moving to Arlington and “having babies” as her career. The Bachelor season 19 frontrunner continued, “I firmly believe that life takes you places, and it’s not where you are; it’s who you’re with.”

You know what they say: Two’s a party, but three’s a painfully awkward and quiet crowd. Kelsey and Ashley I. weren’t exactly audience favorites on The Bachelor season 19, but it certainly was enjoyable to watch them face-off on a two-on-one date during last night’s episode of this popular reality TV show. Rather than using their alone time with Chris Soules to grow their relationships and love, the ladies complained and gossiped about each other. According to Fox News, The Bachelor star saw through their games and took their accusations seriously, ultimately sending both women home.

“The sky’s the limit…,” read Britt Nilsson’s one-on-one date card on last night’s episode of The Bachelor season 19. That’s when the 27-year-old waitress started to cry in panic due to her debilitating phobia of heights. Still, she pulled it together before their one-on-one date. People.com reported Chris Soules saying that she was “just as beautiful first thing in the morning as when she’s all dolled up for the rose ceremony. It’s pretty incredible.” Turns out, she gets all dolled up for bed too, but oh well! The reality TV lovebirds soon arrived in the New Mexico desert to find a hot air balloon waiting for them, and Nilsson’s fears quickly disappeared with Soules’ arms around her.

Poor Chris Soules had a lot to handle on last night’s jam-packed episode of the hit reality TV show The Bachelor. His hands were full with two group dates, two one-on-ones, a visit from his sisters, a shameless Cinderella promotion, and one big confession. The first group date brought seven girls to the lake for a day of beach fun and night of camping. Ashley I. was, in her own words, a camping virgin and a virgin camping, and after fretting over it, she decided to tell Soules the truth about her sexual history — or lack thereof. She snuck into The Bachelor star’s tent in the middle of night to wake him up and was clearly nervous as she danced around the point of the conversation without actually saying it. In his blog on People.com, the Iowa farmer writes, “Here’s a little lesson for you ladies: Men are pretty simple when it comes to words… Spell it out for us. Maybe even write it down so we don’t forget it. We don’t work well with subtlety.” Later in the episode, she bravely tried again, and this time, she came right out with her confession.
The Bachelor contestant Ashley I. was in need of some dating advice before she confronted Chris Soules with her big reveal on last night’s episode. What are some ways to successfully open up to a guy?

“They’re helping to shape the way we view what is desirable, what is sexy,” she explains of the reality TV franchise. “With Farmer Chris from Iowa as America’s current leading man, the dating landscape has dramatically shifted.” House reveals five ways that Soules is changing the reality of dating: Women no longer want bad boys like former Bachelor Juan Pablo Galavis; we see farmers as marriage material; we’re going back to the basics and forgetting about the rich and famous; we want a true gentleman; and we (finally!) think nice is sexy.
Funny enough, a reality TV show is helping us redefine real love. “It’s being authentic; it’s being our true self. It’s looking down deep and thinking, ‘What do I need in a relationship and love? What do I need in a relationship? What will sustain a relationship long-term?'” the relationship expert shares.

Chris Soules certainly seemed to be enjoying himself during last night’s episode of The Bachelor season 19! Reality TV fans got to see multiple makeout sessions and enjoy a lot of laughs, thanks to a guest appearance by Jimmy Kimmel. According to People.com, Soules kissed eight different women, claiming that it was simply part of the process of finding love. When asked by Mackenzie why he was macking with so many different honeys, he answered nervously that that’s just how he gets to know people. Becca was the only girl to deny his attempt at a smooch; instead, the two shared a sweet hug.
What are some ways to deal with jealousy when, like the contestants on The Bachelor season 19, you aren’t exclusive yet?
Recently, the latest celebrity news and gossip centered on the sudden celebrity break-up of The Bachelorette couple Andi Dorfman and Josh Murray. According to UsMagazine.com, Chris Harrison, the host of The Bachelor, said he had no idea that the celebrity couple was about to split. When Harrison saw the soon-to-be celebrity exes, he asked about their wedding plans in an interview. “By no means did I know they were broken up and did that interview, because honestly, having been through a crappy breakup, I would’ve protected it more and stayed away from wedding talk and I wouldn’t have put them on the spot,” Harrison told TV Guide. Although Harrison usually knows the drama between The Bachelor contestants, he seemed out of the loop on this one!

First dates can be stressful enough, but can you imagine having 30 first dates simultaneously? That’s how Chris Soules felt on Monday night during the premiere of The Bachelor Season 19. “It was nerve-racking but exciting to be in the same room with 30 amazing women and knowing that one of them could potentially become my fiancée,” Soules said in an interview with People.com. While some women handled the stress of the evening better than others (a few contestants were noticeably intoxicated by the evening’s close…), they all made lasting impressions. From motorcycles and karaoke to secret admirers and a pig nose, the women used a variety of tactics to try and catch the handsome bachelor’s eye. Some ended up being more successful than others, as the 33-year-old farm boy from Iowa eliminated eight women during thefirst rose ceremony on The Bachelor Season 19.
‘The Bachelor’ Chris Soules was pretty nervous Monday night. What are three ways to deal with nerves on a first date?

On the red carpet prior to Monday night’s premiere of The Bachelor, former winner Nikki Ferrell opened up to host Chris Harrison about her celebrity breakup with Juan Pablo Galavis — and surprisingly she had nothing but nice things to say about her celebrity ex! According to UsMagazine.com, the pediatric nurse shared, “I’m not a quitter. I tried everything, and he tried too. It wasn’t just a one-side thing. We real-life tried, not TV-tried.” She added, “I knew I was never going to be the number one priority. He has a daughter…but there’s a difference between being the second priority and the seventh priority.”
Not everyone speaks so highly of their celebrity ex like ‘The Bachelor’ winner Nikki Ferrell. What are some factors to consider when someone asks you about your ex?
If you watched the season 19 premiere of The Bachelor last night, you know that Chris Soules is in for quite a ride. The Arlington, Iowa native clearly has his hands full with this group of women! After getting booted by Andi Dorfman, there’s no telling which dynamic lady will steal his heart — and when we say dynamic, we mean it. His contestants range from a ballet instructor and a flight attendant (a profession that hasn’t reigned superior in Bachelor past) to a WWE Diva-in-Training and a former NFL Cheerleader. Some are hotties with big personalities, while others are more bashful and low-key. And then there’s the girl who depends a little too heavily on the bottle. Of course, they have one thing in common: They all want the same man. Ahh, aren’t you so glad to have season 19 of The Bachelor to start off the new year?
The Bachelor Chris Soules is serious about finding the love of his life. In fact, he recently opened up to People.comabout leaving the farm life behind to expand his horizons and find The One. “There were so many great girls. I felt like I could fall in love with a lot of them right away,” he said. The new season of The Bachelor debuts on January 5th, and Soules will have 30 women to choose from at the start. With one woman arriving on a motorcycle, another proclaiming Soules could “plow her field any day,” and yet another giving him a “great squeeze,” there’s no doubt that this season’s Bachelor has his work cut out for him!

Sadly, it has been confirmed that another Bachelor couple has split. After speculation that there was trouble between celebrity couple Nikki Ferrell and Juan Pablo Galavis, Ferrell confirmed the celebrity breakup. According to E! Online, the split happened over her birthday weekend. The pediatric nurse revealed, “We were just going back and forth through texting. He was questioning the relationship, and I was questioning it back. I sent him a message saying, ‘We should fight for this. We should work this out.’ And he didn’t respond.” That’s when the 28-year-old posted her angry message to Instagram. She confessed, “In hindsight, I probably shouldn’t have done that. I’m a tad bit impulsive.” Regardless, the two still have love for one another. Ferrell said, “Who knows what the future holds, but at this point in our lives, it’s not working for either one of us.”

It looks like The Bachelor celebrity couple Juan Pablo Galavis and Nikki Ferrell have called it quits after trying to salvage their rocky celebrity relationship. For those who watched the controversial couple on The Bachelor and VH1’s current season of Couples Therapy, it should be no surprise that there will be no more roses passed between the two of them. According to People.com, Ferrell dumped Galavis seven months after audiences watched him decline to say “I love you” to the 27-year-old pediatric nurse on the finale of The Bachelor. It seems she has finally grown tired of his childish behavior: On Sunday, she unfollowed the reality star on both Instagram and Twitter and then posted a harsh quote that appears to be aimed towards Galavis. She posted, “Isn’t it pathetic how we waste so must time on certain people and in the end they prove that they weren’t even worth a second of it.”

Former Bachelorette contestant Arie Luyendyk Jr. will not be given another shot at relationships and love on The Bachelor Season 19, according to UsMagazine.com, and he’s not happy about it. A source recently said that Luyendyk is “pissed” that he was not chosen. Luyendyk tweeted his dismay saying, “I’m not the Bachelor. Have fun on the farm people.” Hopefully Luyendyk’s poor attitude and angry social media posts do not affect this years Bachelor pick, Chris Soules.
