Back in November we got word that Emily Maynard was dating Taylor Johnson, a Charlotte based philanthropist. The buzz surrounding The Bachelorette's rumored beau was true as the happy couple became engaged on January 4! "We're really excited!!" the blonde beauty announced to Us Weekly.

Was Kylie Lewis set up by The Bachelor producers to fail? She thinks so! While talking with TMZ, the redhead revealed that she was instructed to act like a "dumb bimbo." There were a few other changes ABC apparently had in mind for the interior designer which included dying her hair from strawberry blonde to red and the color of her arrival gown. Kylie continued to say that her tweet immediately after meeting Juan Pablo was also planned, as she wanted to give him a photo she had drawn instead. While we may never know the truth, the poor girl did not have the best luck on Monday night's premiere.

Not only is there speculation that Alexis and Michael are an item, but Amy and Brooks too! But Amy L. is still competing for Juan Pablo's heart, so maybe the duo are just holding hands as friends?

Bless her heart! Lauren Higginson was full of tears and stress on Monday's season premiere. Sadly her journey to find love with Juan Pablo was cut short as the mineral coordinator was sent packing. "I didn't really know what to expect," she explained about her portrayal on The Bachelor. "I knew they would use that little meltdown." Apparently it was the producers idea for Lauren to bring up her recent engagement which she said was then edited to make her look like "an idiot." Lauren continued by explaining, "There were tears, those were real. The words that came out of my mouth were real, but in terms of the order or the context absolutely not."
