No idea but she's 26. If she graduated at 25 as most lawyers do -- her career has been all of 1 yr so far. Does she have a bachelorette offer? I think if she gets it, she will get out of the ADA gig and suddenly find herself in the entertainment field -- as a lawyer, agent etc.


I am pretty sure Andi has been the plan for the Bachelorette all along. They put her on the show to see how the audience would warm up to her, then they create some drama that means that she won't get picked. She will probably leave early on her own accord saying she knew he wasn't the one to make sure there is no 'closure' needed before she can come back as the Bachelorette. It is pretty much their formula!

I'm surprised he didn't cut Andi or Claire -- one's family hated him and the other's was overwhelming.

WTH happens in the fantasy suite that upsets ALL the women? I think Andi is gone next as she calls him out on being an a$$hole and he is rude enough to say she barely made it. Wouldn't be surprised if she leaves on her own. I feel like I saw a shot of Renee on that episode preview though -- does she come back??


They are both single parents very settled into their lives in different parts of the country. Which one is really ready to move away from supportive family, involved non custodial parents, and uproot their child of for a relationship based on a handful of dates over the course of a few weeks while he dated other women? Both Camilla's mom and Ben's dad are in the picture and regular parts of their children's lives - I am sure they would both legitimately try and block their child being moved in these circumstances.


Didn't even think of that. I thought she was the shoe in because they had so much in common and also because she's from FL. But Sarasota and Miami are 2-3 hrs away and you're right, I bet both non-custodial parents would block a move that far, esp. if they are used to seeing their kid multiple times per week or month.

PP here; just caught up on latest episode, and I wasn't surprised that Chelsea didn't get the special 'hometown' rose. Also, no surprise Sharleen left. Still have the same impressions of the various 'conversations' going on.

The 'conversations' he has with the 'girls' are so difficult to watch/listen to. I wonder if they ever talk about anything substantial. His main concerns (and they know this) seem to be finding someone who likes to dance, relax, be a mother to his daughter, and produce new children. Definitely think Sharleen is going to leave soon; seems all this attention is going to help her opera career (?), or maybe not ...

I say the last 2 standing will be Claire and Renee.

Sheena is a mystery and I think a black swan for sure....and I think she is in it 100% for publicity and nothing else.

Claire and Renee both seem to really want him but I think he "respects" Renee more...if that is what you can call it. She also seems to be the most emotionally mature of all of them.

can you stop crying for me? please. can you do that? UGH! she is not your daughter! extremely controlling.


He did the same thing on their date when she didn't want to jump. Wouldn't the gentlemanly thing to do have been to say "hey, no pressure. If jumping off a bridge isn't your thing, we'll do something else" but it took him a long time to come around to finally acknowledging hey, you don't have to do this. He spent a lot of time trying to convince her she should. I didn't like it at all.

You'd think with one female child already, he wouldn't want another... but he seems to relish the opportunity to comfort/control/shut up the emotional outbursts... I guess it's his comfort zone, but I really want to tell him to get a nonemotional female, and to keep the attention on his child- he doesnt' need another child.

I also get a bit of a small peen vibe, to be honest.

Both Juan Pablo and Claire handled that whole thing poorly. I doubt they actually had PIV sex - in the ocean waves with cameras rolling. Probably just hand jobs. It was edited to look like more than it was because....ratings.

Their conversation about it was awkward and immature. Neither of them knew how to talk about it. She just cried and he kept trying to explain what the felt and each thing out of his mouth was worse. She also had no clue how to talk about it or deal with it except crying. These two would be an absolutely train wreck as a couple - no emotional maturity on either side.

A date with Juan Pablo would be great for about 4 seconds.
