For some reason Arie getting engaged again was boring. I am glad they didn’t dwell on that last night. Let’s get going with Becca and our upcoming season of the Bachelorette! That will be more sincere.
I love how people just assume Becca’s season will be more interesting just because bachelor nation now feels sorry for her. Since she wasn’t really people’s pick from the beginning the season will not be interesting. Y’all just wait and see.
This guy made the best decision in his life changing his mind to pick her. I am sure Becca is also great but Lauren is so pure and beautiful and what a lucky guy.
You're 1000% over your ex fiancee within the week?! Also, "he's not the best at keeping secrets?!" AND you didn't watch the breakup that's the problematic part of all of this?! Girl, I'm not sure you're completely aware of what you've committed to.
From what I heard, he broke up with Becca on Jan. 11th and went to Lauren’s house on Jan. 12th. Literally the day after. How can you move on that quick if you actually cared enough to propose to another girl????
I think they've loved each other since they were filming the show last fall. Everyone kept telling Arie he should pick Becca, even his family liked her outgoing personality, but on a deeper level he really loved sweet, quiet Lauren. Best wishes to them.
If I’m Lauren I’d question why everyone hates Arie. What did he do or say to Becca when he broke up with her?? But then again Lauren is a blah! She’s perfect for Arie!
Why? It's a valid thing to be cautious of; if I were in a relationship and all of my friends hated him as vehemently as they hate Arie, I'd be concerned. I'd also be concerned with their almost bragging about how they haven't watched the break up, as that's where a lot of people are having issues with him. There's clearly a reason that they are as furious as they are, and if I were Lauren, I'd be really concerned about what that was.
natalie neale I'm fine with him breaking up with Becca. Changing your mind happens. It's just how he did it. So cruel and unfeeling. And how the heck did it take him so long to leave!
When Arie broke up with Lauren you can see and feel the pain in her face and body language. But with Becca, I didn't see any emotions. Becca's only concern was that she felt humiliated that he's breaking up with her to reconcile with Lauren. I felt Becca's tears were not genuine, looks as if she's forcing herself to cry and she didn't look hurt or angry when he wanted to break off their engagement. Arie didn't realize how much he misses Lauren until he was spending time with Becca. That goes to show how much he really loves Lauren when he's always thinking about her even when he's with Becca. I'm sure for anyone to fall in love with multiple people at the same time would be confused and the fact that he's pressured to choose one person at a certain time frame. At least he's following his heart. Who are you to judge when you're not in his shoes? I do wish Arie and Lauren all the best and hope they'd get marry and live happily thereafter.
She comes across as beautiful both inwardly and outwardly and I think being on the Bachelorette will be a test of character for her. I mean she will have to intimate with more than one man. Jr
stop saying it was worth the risk, you took no risk. You had confirmation from Lauren before ending it with Becca which you’d never have the balls to do without
Having Becca go through this experience as the bachelorette will probably give Becca more closure and understanding of what Arie went through! I wish nothing but the best for them all.
Lauren is exactly what Arie wants/needs.. she's submissive and easy to control. I don't understand why they brought back Arie as the bachelor in the first place. Peter should of been the bachelor.
Nah, what they need is a wholly new man to be the Bachelor. sick and tired of these "retreads" from Ette Seasons. Get someone fresh and new, real, romantic. Also get some women that have some substance to them.
Rachel I think sabotaged Peter's chances with her pronouncement that he is not fit for this "process" perhaps selfishly so that she wouldn't have to face the possibility that it was her, he wasn't ready because it was with HER, and maybe if he met the right girl, he will change his mind. Rachel, I think never thought about it that way, or did not want to. I wish Peter was the bachelor and not Arie!
Arie is the living example of 'actions speak louder than words'. He says he wants this that and the other in a woman but we see who he decided to end up with. They will not last long and if they do, they deserve each other. A relationship with no sustenance. I mean Lauren literally never speaks and when she does shes not confident...her walk isn't even confident. SMH. Becca was too strong of a woman for him and he is just a WEAK man.
Nicole Parry you realize this has happened before and that other couple has been together for years unless you have been in Aries position stop judging
A man that in certain cases chooses a woman who isn't as strong as the alternative option, is not automatically weak. There are many decisions for a man that go into choosing a partner, and how "weak" the woman is isn't the main factor in those decisions.
Pretty Glowin I actually do agree with some of what you said. I didn't look at it from that perspective, Thanks! I enjoy having these conversations in order to help open my mind. Guess only time will tell how their relationship will go.
I totally agree I think people rush to throw stones and say horrible things but it's good he openly told Becca the truth rather than acting like he wanted to marry her when he didn't..hes a great guy and Lauren is a great person too I think he just made a mistake which we all do we are all human
Let them be happy, he admitted he made a mistake, he did becca a favor anyways and now she has an opportunity to find love again so it works out for everyone🙂
It’s just how he did it. Filming the break up, sliding into Lauren’s DMs before breaking it off with Becca, and getting engaged on the same stage he just talked to his ex fiancé on while she was backstage. Just a complete disregard for Becca’s feelings, a woman he claimed to love. smh
gothedistance the whole situation was horrible and wrong, but all he can do is apologize, pay for what he did, and move on. But people don’t need to aggressively attack them as a couple or Lauren’s character. If they are happy then just leave them alone and let them work through this.
Michelle that’s so true! I don’t know what it is but I never liked her. No real reason. It seemed the other women had nice things to say about her so I wonder what we’re all missing.
Lauren was always our pick for Arie because they seem to be soulmates but I think he was dazzled by Becca's personality like what he said she was the total package, but we love Lauren. She is quiet, a little shy, sweet, reserved, and perfect for Arie. He was dazzled and attracted to Becca as a man and confused it with love, but it was Lauren he loved all along. I think my first clue that she is very special to him was when he affectionately kissed her on the head, an unconscious act that demonstrated a much depeer regard that went beyond physical attraction. He just was so confused and didn't have enough time to sort it out. His family didn't help either because although they love Lauren they were dazzled by Becca too, just like Arie. So when Arie looked to them for guidance instead of assuring him about Lauren, they also went for the logical choice- someone whom they think is beneficial to Arie, and could get him out from such a laid back personality- someone vivacious, outgoing, very independent with a very strong personality. But they forgot that Arie is already 36 yo and set in his ways. I do believe that left on his own, given a few days to reflect, dated Lauren a little earlier on, or had one date with Lauren after Becca instead of dating Becca last when he was down to three choices, he would have been more sure of Lauren and picked her. I think there was an unconscious self-centeredness on Arie's part though because he was only concerned about himself all the way to the end of the show, forgetting that he could really hurt people and worse by saying 'I love you (even saying very much) to two people. Ben Higgins shouldn't have said it too. I love Sean Lowe's responses particularly when he said he wanted to say it in the end and make it very special to just that person. Anyway, I think Arie just probably talked it out with Chris Harrison and realized that he could partly make it up to Becca by allowing the break up to air guaranteeing her spot as the next Bachelorette, and another shot at love and with it tons of money, and for him maybe get another engagement ring in the process. He may or may not know that they will air the whole breakup without edit, afterall they cut a lot of film footage during the season. So cheers to Lauren and Arie. Cheers to Becca. If this didn't happen the way it did, Kendall would have been my choice of Bachelorette. :)
1:33 "Do you think you're 100% over Becca?" -Arie shakes his head no and blinks a thousand times while saying out loud yes... Body language speaks for itself 😏
L Lance, this guy doesn't know what he wants. He's not ready for marriage. If it was up to him, I bet he'd probably like to be in a polyamorous relationship with multiple women rather than settle down with just one. He's not over Becca 100%, neither is he completely over some of the other women he's dated on the show. He probably enjoys the bachelor life way too much. Of course, this is all just my opinion.
L Lance the saddest part when he broke up with Becca he didn’t even say he was sorry. Wasn’t just body language, it was the words he used... he said the longer he was with Becca the longer he felt he couldn’t go back and see how things work out with him and Lauren. This guy is manipulative and trying to get dip his hands in the cookie jar.
He said he felt protected with Becca but his heart ❤️ was with Lauren ...so then he felt he made a big mistake . Sometimes you do have to take chances and come out of your comfort zone...jump into the pond....or jump the broom. Ready or not here I come let's try LOVE ❤❤❤❤❤😂..😊..I hope everyone is learning I know this recording are 5 years old. But it took five years to realize.
The jokes on all of you that made mean and snide remarks. Hahaha!!! Now they are married and extremely happy. They have three beautiful babys. An adorable daughter she just turned two years old and they just had twins!! A boy and a girl. Its all on their RUclips channel. Looks like Arie was truly in love with Lauren after all. PS Like Arie said they didn't give them the best edits. Meaning they didn't show much of Arie and Laurens love for each other and played up the Becca part.
Begged for forgiveness?? You are to generous, it was more like: Arie: “Ding, Dong” Lauren: I love you!! hahahaha Not dignity AT ALL!!! Also, he didn’t choose Becca because she was the “safe choice” (as he has said multiple times), she chose her because he thought he wanted a strong and confident woman (as he also said, Lauren doesn’t have confidence and need reassurance all the time), then he regretted it and decided to go with the real safe choice, the woman who won’t stand for herself and won’t call him out on anything, so he will be able to be free and cheat around without her leaving him, that’s the reality of things.
Would Lauren of become the bachelorette if Becca and Arie have stayed together? I do see a huge difference how Arie looks at Lauren compared to how Arie looked at Becca. They look happier.
It would be catastrophic if he actually marry Becca knowing he is in love with Lauren. He chose becca at first because he didn't know his real love was for Lauren but came to his senses when he broke up with her.
People need to give Lauren a break. She is so real, she is obviously just shy and not the greatest on camera but at least she is not putting on a fake personality!!
I feel Arie needs a break, he’s not a bad guy. It’s true he shouldn’t of purposed to Becca, I just hope he doesn’t do the same thing to Lauren. I liked that he said he’ll make it up to her forever. I’m also very happy for Becca becoming the next bachelorette. It seems as a happy ending for all. Well, hopefully Becca gets her happy ending!!!!!!
A fun fact: someone on twitter said that they were flying from Arizona to New York with Arie on first class on 12/27 and he was texting Lauren then. So he’s lying saying he reached out to her on new year’s eve...
he had feelings for 2 different people. the only reason people are angry is because it was filmed and it happened on TV and the whole world saw it. Arie made a mistake and people are allowed to make mistakes. but he figured out who should be with. Lauren is also a strong woman and its up to her whether or not she trusts Arie. and she does, so can we all just be happy for the couple. they have started their life together, so all the viewers can stop dwelling on this "shocking finale" and let them be happy togther and progress in their relationship.
I love Lauren so much! It was so obvious her and Arie were soul mates. Too bad it took him time to figure that out. I think his family confused him and they tried to get him to think logically about it instead of with his heart and emotions.
Angela Cazier -- I like Lauren too, she is very sweet and I also think that his family had alot to do with him making the choice he did, they confused him even more. He should of gone with his heart cause all along he kept telling her he loved her, even when he put her in the car and said goodbye!. He even told himself he changed his mind about her on their last date, that he was in love with her. Then out of left field, he picks Becca. What????. Arie, for your sake, your lucky Becca is such a Mature an forgiving Soul. She did not deserved how you rip't out her heart, in front of all America. You were unbelievably insensitive and said too much. You are going to take alot of heat for it and unfortunately, it was your mistake. As painful as it was to watch, you did the right thing for Becca by ending it. I also think he got too much pressure from the show to make a decision, where he could of just waited and given himself more time outside the show. Who knows under what agreement, he was with the show. They're all about ratings n drama. ✌
I think i would be ok with arie if he hadnt had cameras rolling for the breakup...becca busy skipping about talking about how big the ring is on a lovely weekend and #needledick is just about to break her heart in front of millions of poeple...smh...JUST LEAVE ARIE!! #OnlyGodKnows
I just wanted to point out that cameras will not roll without Arie and Becca's consent, so she too was aware that it would be aired and was probably paid more for it. Just coming from the realistic side of TV being a business, and to point out Becca also consented to being recorded and having it aired.
Gabriella Kiki of course she agreed for cameras to roll she thought they were filming their happy couples weekend he blindsided her with that...but airing it is another story she probably did agree for them to air the footage or she was still under a contract that binded her...that being said they definitely offered her bachelorette as her consolation prize..
In entertainment, everyone is scared of getting sued. There is no possible way that they would air that without her permission. Realize the outcry for her to be the bachelorette and the hype she's getting now IS because it was aired, and she knows, and thats why she consented (cause it would not be aired if she didnt). I get this is awful, i just to point out a realistic view.
Wow, so judgmental.... critical... prejudice... She’s a gem 💎, a great mother and cherished wife... Arie is a great husband... they ‘re very happy. Are you still negative energy person?
I think he had to validate his true choice because the shows preface is that there is a TRUE engagement nonetheless and he knew he didnt have Laurens phone number so he had to tell Becca what his intentions are since Lauren was part of the show too.
What I mean is in order to keep the engagement ring given to him in the contract, he had to ACTUALLY get engaged and the other ring didnt count being a broken engagement.
I knew he likes Lauren a lot!!!!!!! He just picked the other girl because he thought she is a good wife material...with his logic side. Emotionally he definitely was so into Lauren. He never was in love with the other one.
This is not the first break up in the history of dating world and if Arie is an bad guy than Garrett is the worst who ended his marriage 2 months after the wedding. So,It's Becca's loss either way.
Y’all Stop Judging Arie!! No one is perfect ! Don’t tell me neither of you had a change of heart ?? What he did was Wrong but let’s face it is a Show and they’ll do anything to have someone dream come true ...I’m happy for Becca she will finally have the opportunity to find true Love ..
Love you Lauren! It takes a very strong woman to love and continually forgive an imperfect man. I admire your strength and ability to be gracious to someone you broke your heart first.
Linda Olsob no it’s not the same, Becca’s was a 4.0 carats oval shape, Lauren’s is a 3.6 carats cushion shape. Becca’s was bigger and more expensive. There are a ton of articles talking about it 😉
I think Becca was chosen as the bachelorette before the show even started - she was showered with gifts, painted in a great light and there was little to no connection between her and Arie during the entire show. When Lauren told Arie she loved him and he disappeared for a moment I think that was to confirm he could tell her he loved her so it wouldn’t mess with the future bachelorette pick - Becca. The set her up perfectly for the next show, and when Arie “broke up” with her she didn’t even cry, it all seemed very fake and directed to me. This entire season was a joke - all the dates Arie took the girls on we’re terrible, and though I do feel he and Lauren have a genuine connection, I don’t think he and Becca were connected at all. Won’t be watching Becca’s season.
Alicia Warren right? I thought the same too. The reaction she gave when she heard he was talking to Lauren is not normal. Any other women would have kicked his balls out.
Alicia Warren I agree! My exact thoughts. I see a connect with arie and Lauren but with Becca it just seems it was all too planned she was so happy to be bachelorette right away too
why wouldn't she be happy to move on? would you rather her mope around and pine after a guy that didn't take her feelings into consideration AT ALL? I guess the 'right thing' to do when a guy leaves you for another girl is to wallow while he moves onto his happily ever after? NAH. Becca is strong AF. She has remained classy and poised throughout the whole season and stayed out of any drama. She handled Arie's bs the same way she handled Ross trying to win her back-- in a no nonsense way. He's telling her he doesn't love her-- why give him the pleasure of watching her break down?
MaddestHatter13 I think her being the bachelorette is just all too staged, her and Arie had no connection, she was dressed up and down on the first date even though they had zero interaction before this, she kept sticking around in spite of the fact that yet again there was no connection between her and Arie, and her “ex” popping up was just for ratings and to make her even more interesting. I think it’s all an act.
lololol it's funny how he didn't even think about breaking things off with becca until he knew lauren would take him back.. that's insecure. HE'S 36. i also feel like Lauren is the type of person who is gonna need reassurance every single day and they're both like that, so i guess they're perfect for each other. so so glad Becca dodged that bullet and is gonna find way better.
Michael says "don't go away, we have a game for you to play" yet Arie and Lauren weren't on again. GMA never showed them playing a game like Michael said they were going to.
Krystal knew what was up all along. Being indecisive about bowling was one thing, but just completely abandoning Becca with no empathy at all was just horrible. Did he even say sorry? Nothing about all this was genuine. I wish them the best though, we’ll see if this lasts. 🤷♀️
One of the things that bothered me the most about Arie’s breakup with Becca is he never clearly explained why. Why did he realize she was not the one? Maybe it was something about her, or them when they were together, and maybe it was personal and he didn’t want to say in front of the cameras. But there’s gotta be more to the picture, he was so vague. Maybe he doesn’t even consciously realize what it was himself. SMH 🤦🏻♀️ men
Everybody makes mistakes. Should he have filmed the breakup? No, but it's not an uncommon thing for people to break up and Becca is the next Bachelorette so I really don't see why people are so upset about it still. And the reason Arie proposed was probably because he felt that he had to for the show's purpose. if he hadn't, he would've been hated for not doing it just like Brad Womack was when he did that on his season
I don't think they'll last. They haven't even been to dinner together. He's just desperate to knock someone up and have that trophy wife who will stay quiet and in the background. I give them a year. And that's being generous.
For some reason Arie getting engaged again was boring. I am glad they didn’t dwell on that last night. Let’s get going with Becca and our upcoming season of the Bachelorette! That will be more sincere.
None of this is sincere. It's reality television.

I love how people just assume Becca’s season will be more interesting just because bachelor nation now feels sorry for her. Since she wasn’t really people’s pick from the beginning the season will not be interesting. Y’all just wait and see.
Fuck what man wants a woman OPENING their hole 24/7!!!!
Agree. Thank God the proposal last night was short and awkward
This guy made the best decision in his life changing his mind to pick her. I am sure Becca is also great but Lauren is so pure and beautiful and what a lucky guy.
I thought it was pretty tacky that he proposed to Lauren with Becca still in the studio. What was the big rush? 💔
The free $80,000 + engagement ring. They only get it if they propose on the show.
Becca doesn't care as she is excited being the Bachelorette. It has been two months already since their breakup.
Yep the free ring!
Dear Sybersue its in their contract, they have sold the filming rights of proposal and marriage to the show.
THATS THE REAL REASON ARIE went on the show in the first place. He dont have to foot the bill for the ring!
You're 1000% over your ex fiancee within the week?! Also, "he's not the best at keeping secrets?!" AND you didn't watch the breakup that's the problematic part of all of this?! Girl, I'm not sure you're completely aware of what you've committed to.
lovethatdirtywater78 1000% sounds like that other fake
lovethatdirtywater78 Right? She needs to be aware. But I guess she was trying to protect her heart.
From what I heard, he broke up with Becca on Jan. 11th and went to Lauren’s house on Jan. 12th. Literally the day after. How can you move on that quick if you actually cared enough to propose to another girl????
Shit getting engaged in 3 months is ENOUGH stress let alone NEVER enought time.. Blame it on the show and NOT ARI!
And she said she knows how Becca feels😂 that was the funniest thing I've ever heard in my life
I think they've loved each other since they were filming the show last fall. Everyone kept telling Arie he should pick Becca, even his family liked her outgoing personality, but on a deeper level he really loved sweet, quiet Lauren. Best wishes to them.
If I’m Lauren I’d question why everyone hates Arie. What did he do or say to Becca when he broke up with her?? But then again Lauren is a blah! She’s perfect for Arie!
Mae K seriously y'all need to grow the fuck up
Why? It's a valid thing to be cautious of; if I were in a relationship and all of my friends hated him as vehemently as they hate Arie, I'd be concerned. I'd also be concerned with their almost bragging about how they haven't watched the break up, as that's where a lot of people are having issues with him. There's clearly a reason that they are as furious as they are, and if I were Lauren, I'd be really concerned about what that was.
Lol yes girl!!! Well said!
Mae K but ur not lauren. you are smart she not so much
natalie neale I'm fine with him breaking up with Becca. Changing your mind happens. It's just how he did it. So cruel and unfeeling. And how the heck did it take him so long to leave!
"I feel for Becca. I didn't watch the breakup." -Lauren okay
KatInHD neither did Lauren
ya cause she knows what a breakup entails duh
She should watch the breakup. He was cold and he only wanted to hear Becca forgive him (which is a totally unfair expectation). She should see that.
cat dog Exactly! That's what bugged me so much.
cat dog Lauren is all in !! Nothing could turn her away from Arie.
When Arie broke up with Lauren you can see and feel the pain in her face and body language.
But with Becca, I didn't see any emotions. Becca's only concern was that she felt humiliated that he's breaking up with her to reconcile with Lauren. I felt Becca's tears were not genuine, looks as if she's forcing herself to cry and she didn't look hurt or angry when he wanted to break off their engagement.
Arie didn't realize how much he misses Lauren until he was spending time with Becca. That goes to show how much he really loves Lauren when he's always thinking about her even when he's with Becca. I'm sure for anyone to fall in love with multiple people at the same time would be confused and the fact that he's pressured to choose one person at a certain time frame. At least he's following his heart. Who are you to judge when you're not in his shoes? I do wish Arie and Lauren all the best and hope they'd get marry and live happily thereafter.
Becca is a strong person dat y she can handle it ....
U r heartless !
I think it's actually really worked out for the best for everyone - Becca the Bachelorette is going to be awesome 🙌
She comes across as beautiful both inwardly and outwardly and I think being on the Bachelorette will be a test of character for her. I mean she will have to intimate with more than one man.
Jr
stop saying it was worth the risk, you took no risk. You had confirmation from Lauren before ending it with Becca which you’d never have the balls to do without
Lacy Smith EXACTLY
I’m surprised they made it and I’m happy for them, but at the same time, it’ll never make what he did less sleazy which is what you mentioned above.
Having Becca go through this experience as the bachelorette will probably give Becca more closure and understanding of what Arie went through! I wish nothing but the best for them all.
Lauren is exactly what Arie wants/needs.. she's submissive and easy to control. I don't understand why they brought back Arie as the bachelor in the first place. Peter should of been the bachelor.
NO...Peter had commitment issues. Why would they ever choose him to be the Bachelor. He didn't believe in the process.
Nah, what they need is a wholly new man to be the Bachelor. sick and tired of these "retreads" from Ette Seasons. Get someone fresh and new, real, romantic. Also get some women that have some substance to them.
I think peter is a great guy but I don't believe that the show is for him though.
Rachel I think sabotaged Peter's chances with her pronouncement that he is not fit for this "process" perhaps selfishly so that she wouldn't have to face the possibility that it was her, he wasn't ready because it was with HER, and maybe if he met the right girl, he will change his mind. Rachel, I think never thought about it that way, or did not want to. I wish Peter was the bachelor and not Arie!
And here we are after Peter being the bachelor 😂😂 what a shit show!
Arie is the living example of 'actions speak louder than words'. He says he wants this that and the other in a woman but we see who he decided to end up with. They will not last long and if they do, they deserve each other. A relationship with no sustenance.

Nicole Parry you realize this has happened before and that other couple has been together for years unless you have been in Aries position stop judging
True , Lauren seem's dumb , shes not a bad person maybe like Molly was but shes stupid.
A man that in certain cases chooses a woman who isn't as strong as the alternative option, is not automatically weak. There are many decisions for a man that go into choosing a partner, and how "weak" the woman is isn't the main factor in those decisions.
Pretty Glowin I actually do agree with some of what you said. I didn't look at it from that perspective, Thanks! I enjoy having these conversations in order to help open my mind. Guess only time will tell how their relationship will go.
Cynthia Zavala well said!!!!
He followed his heart. He's not the first one to dump the "winner" and choose the runner-up.
Winner? runner-up??
Anyone else actually love Lauren and are happy for them??
me
Agree. I think they are a great couple and genuine but are misinterpreted as “boring “ just being themselves
totally agree, we are humans and make mistakes. why they can't be happy for them?
I totally agree I think people rush to throw stones and say horrible things but it's good he openly told Becca the truth rather than acting like he wanted to marry her when he didn't..hes a great guy and Lauren is a great person too I think he just made a mistake which we all do we are all human
Malan Chiziwa I completely agree with you! Well said!
Let them be happy, he admitted he made a mistake, he did becca a favor anyways and now she has an opportunity to find love again so it works out for everyone🙂
gothedistance True! If the lie went on any longer, she wouldn't have been bachelorette.
Yup!!
It’s just how he did it. Filming the break up, sliding into Lauren’s DMs before breaking it off with Becca, and getting engaged on the same stage he just talked to his ex fiancé on while she was backstage. Just a complete disregard for Becca’s feelings, a woman he claimed to love. smh
Exactly! People will say something no matter what. Becca and her went to find love. She was still in love with her, so she said yes. Wish them luck!
gothedistance the whole situation was horrible and wrong, but all he can do is apologize, pay for what he did, and move on. But people don’t need to aggressively attack them as a couple or Lauren’s character. If they are happy then just leave them alone and let them work through this.
She is so freakishly stoic. Like why doesn't she smile. Where is her personality
Krista Cannady she’s so fucking lame it actually pisses me off lol
You have your eyes closed. She smiles all the time.
Krista Cannady she was smiling most of the time
She's inexplicably unlikeable as well.
Michelle that’s so true! I don’t know what it is but I never liked her. No real reason. It seemed the other women had nice things to say about her so I wonder what we’re all missing.
Lauren was always our pick for Arie because they seem to be soulmates but I think he was dazzled by Becca's personality like what he said she was the total package, but we love Lauren. She is quiet, a little shy, sweet, reserved, and perfect for Arie. He was dazzled and attracted to Becca as a man and confused it with love, but it was Lauren he loved all along. I think my first clue that she is very special to him was when he affectionately kissed her on the head, an unconscious act that demonstrated a much depeer regard that went beyond physical attraction. He just was so confused and didn't have enough time to sort it out. His family didn't help either because although they love Lauren they were dazzled by Becca too, just like Arie. So when Arie looked to them for guidance instead of assuring him about Lauren, they also went for the logical choice- someone whom they think is beneficial to Arie, and could get him out from such a laid back personality- someone vivacious, outgoing, very independent with a very strong personality.

I can't watch arie kiss one more girl
1:33 "Do you think you're 100% over Becca?" -Arie shakes his head no and blinks a thousand times while saying out loud yes... Body language speaks for itself 😏
He is over her. he isn't going back to Becca.
L Lance, this guy doesn't know what he wants. He's not ready for marriage. If it was up to him, I bet he'd probably like to be in a polyamorous relationship with multiple women rather than settle down with just one. He's not over Becca 100%, neither is he completely over some of the other women he's dated on the show. He probably enjoys the bachelor life way too much. Of course, this is all just my opinion.
He knows what he wants now. He made a mistake but has clarity now.
L Lance no, he doesn't know what he wants now. And he won't end up marrying this girl.
L Lance the saddest part when he broke up with Becca he didn’t even say he was sorry. Wasn’t just body language, it was the words he used... he said the longer he was with Becca the longer he felt he couldn’t go back and see how things work out with him and Lauren. This guy is manipulative and trying to get dip his hands in the cookie jar.
Lauren B is such a really sweet person...you can easily tell :)
Excellent host! Nice host!! Loved this interview :) so happy Jason and Molly lent their support.
move on people! they deserve happiness because and i can feel the love! 😊
He said he felt protected with Becca but his heart ❤️ was with Lauren ...so then he felt he made a big mistake . Sometimes you do have to take chances and come out of your comfort zone...jump into the pond....or jump the broom. Ready or not here I come let's try LOVE ❤❤❤❤❤😂..😊..I hope everyone is learning I know this recording are 5 years old. But it took five years to realize.
The jokes on all of you that made mean and snide remarks. Hahaha!!! Now they are married and extremely happy. They have three beautiful babys. An adorable daughter she just turned two years old and they just had twins!! A boy and a girl. Its all on their RUclips channel. Looks like Arie was truly in love with Lauren after all. PS Like Arie said they didn't give them the best edits. Meaning they didn't show much of Arie and Laurens love for each other and played up the Becca part.
Begged for forgiveness?? You are to generous, it was more like:
Arie: “Ding, Dong”
Lauren: I love you!!
hahahaha
Not dignity AT ALL!!!
Also, he didn’t choose Becca because she was the “safe choice” (as he has said multiple times), she chose her because he thought he wanted a strong and confident woman (as he also said, Lauren doesn’t have confidence and need reassurance all the time), then he regretted it and decided to go with the real safe choice, the woman who won’t stand for herself and won’t call him out on anything, so he will be able to be free and cheat around without her leaving him, that’s the reality of things.
Would Lauren of become the bachelorette if Becca and Arie have stayed together? I do see a huge difference how Arie looks at Lauren compared to how Arie looked at Becca. They look happier.
This was the most dramatic bachelor finale in history hands down🙌
Them being together makes me wanna puke :(
Puke and throw up all that beer??? Are you drunk?
that's why you search for every video of them ?
+Dæmonette when you drive by a car crash you can’t help but be curious and look.
Because the woman never speaks on the show?
2022 and they're still going strong. I hope they last happily ever after.
We need to remember he is a human just like us. Just let him live his life and stop hating so much.
It would be catastrophic if he actually marry Becca knowing he is in love with Lauren. He chose becca at first because he didn't know his real love was for Lauren but came to his senses when he broke up with her.
"We didn't get the best edit"... proceeds to have a sluggish LIVE TV personality with limited vocabulary
People need to give Lauren a break. She is so real, she is obviously just shy and not the greatest on camera but at least she is not putting on a fake personality!!
Im so happy for them . I really really hope it works !!!
Becca will be a great bachelorette too . So its worked out for her as well 🌹
Be strong together ......
I feel Arie needs a break, he’s not a bad guy. It’s true he shouldn’t of purposed to Becca, I just hope he doesn’t do the same thing to Lauren. I liked that he said he’ll make it up to her forever. I’m also very happy for Becca becoming the next bachelorette. It seems as a happy ending for all. Well, hopefully Becca gets her happy ending!!!!!!
Love both of them!!! They meant to be together.
People, be happy for them and others so love could come into ur love.
It's a cake and eat it to situation
A fun fact: someone on twitter said that they were flying from Arizona to New York with Arie on first class on 12/27 and he was texting Lauren then. So he’s lying saying he reached out to her on new year’s eve...
he had feelings for 2 different people. the only reason people are angry is because it was filmed and it happened on TV and the whole world saw it. Arie made a mistake and people are allowed to make mistakes. but he figured out who should be with. Lauren is also a strong woman and its up to her whether or not she trusts Arie. and she does, so can we all just be happy for the couple. they have started their life together, so all the viewers can stop dwelling on this "shocking finale" and let them be happy togther and progress in their relationship.
lauren looks like a disney princess she is gorgeous
I'm so happy for them !
I loved Lauren, and knew he would pick her! It was crazy watching it happen.
I love Lauren so much! It was so obvious her and Arie were soul mates. Too bad it took him time to figure that out. I think his family confused him and they tried to get him to think logically about it instead of with his heart and emotions.
Angela Cazier true
Angela Cazier The man is 11 years or so her Senior.. She will wake up one day and realize he is old.
Angela Cazier -- I like Lauren too, she is very sweet and I also think that his family had alot to do with him making the choice he did, they confused him even more. He should of gone with his heart cause all along he kept telling her he loved her, even when he put her in the car and said goodbye!. He even told himself he changed his mind about her on their last date, that he was in love with her. Then out of left field, he picks Becca. What????. Arie, for your sake, your lucky Becca is such a Mature an forgiving Soul. She did not deserved how you rip't out her heart, in front of all America. You were unbelievably insensitive and said too much. You are going to take alot of heat for it and unfortunately, it was your mistake. As painful as it was to watch, you did the right thing for Becca by ending it. I also think he got too much pressure from the show to make a decision, where he could of just waited and given himself more time outside the show. Who knows under what agreement, he was with the show. They're all about ratings n drama. ✌
C Mill: And she won't care because she loves him.
My thoughts, too. Left alone he would have picked Lauren.
But then again they deserve each other they’re both boring!Blah!Next!!!
Emma Coates what do you want from them ? I’m pretty sure you’re boring too
Jason and Molly have been one of the few Bachelor couples to stay together, so maybe this is for the best.
Arie is weak and Lauren is needy. Perfect for each other! Not sure it will last.
Sandy Jones Perfect analysis
If you are right maybe that's exactly why they are perfect for each other and d that's exactly why they will last.
Jason and Molly are cheaters, they never let Melissa know about their relationship before the final rose. So awesome seeing them giving advice , WOW !
Life Is Hell #1 they didn’t have a relationship before after the final rose. Jason literally talked to Molly for the first time after the final rose.
Jason and Molly are not cheaters. They have a beautiful marriage and children. Move on. Life is too short to continue to give such hate ❤
Jason told Melissa before ATFR but then they acted like it was the first time.
i’m glad that at least he said she’s going to be great as the bachelorette. that’s good
Love you guys!
What was the point of having Lauren come out separately?
did you not see the cringey af moment where he "hands her the final rose"?
GM C Whole thing is too obviously fake.
It looked like they interviewed Arie first separately, then interviewed them together and Lauren came out.
I think i would be ok with arie if he hadnt had cameras rolling for the breakup...becca busy skipping about talking about how big the ring is on a lovely weekend and #needledick is just about to break her heart in front of millions of poeple...smh...JUST LEAVE ARIE!!
#OnlyGodKnows
I just wanted to point out that cameras will not roll without Arie and Becca's consent, so she too was aware that it would be aired and was probably paid more for it. Just coming from the realistic side of TV being a business, and to point out Becca also consented to being recorded and having it aired.
Gabriella Kiki of course she agreed for cameras to roll she thought they were filming their happy couples weekend he blindsided her with that...but airing it is another story she probably did agree for them to air the footage or she was still under a contract that binded her...that being said they definitely offered her bachelorette as her consolation prize..
In entertainment, everyone is scared of getting sued. There is no possible way that they would air that without her permission. Realize the outcry for her to be the bachelorette and the hype she's getting now IS because it was aired, and she knows, and thats why she consented (cause it would not be aired if she didnt). I get this is awful, i just to point out a realistic view.
She has as much personality as a piece of toast
NOT! More class than most women! Guess you wouldnt know!
Wow, so judgmental....
critical... prejudice...
She’s a gem 💎, a great mother
and cherished wife... Arie is a great husband... they ‘re very
happy. Are you still negative
energy person?
Congratulations to them both for their engage 💎💍awesome cupple 💑 good choice i like them both 😄
I think he went with his family and not his heart
I could tell when Becca knew she was going to be the next Bachelorette.
Stop attacking Arie y'all, even if it were you, you'd put you first. We are sorry someone's feelings always have to get in the way.
I think Ari made a better choice in the end. I wish all concerned the very best.
I felt the same way.. Becca blew it by saying so much so fast like looking forward to having babies.. GEESH!!!
M Dillon ari didn’t need to call TV to break up with her though that was a dick thing to do
I think he had to validate his true choice because the shows preface is that there is a TRUE engagement nonetheless and he knew he didnt have Laurens phone number so he had to tell Becca what his intentions are since Lauren was part of the show too.
M Dillon the show was done taping for time though
What I mean is in order to keep the engagement ring given to him in the contract, he had to ACTUALLY get engaged and the other ring didnt count being a broken engagement.
I love them so much ❤️❤️they’ve been perfect the whole time on the bachelor! I hope they last forever (:
Arie is obviously manipulating Lauren’s view of him. It’s not normal and this isn’t going to last...
Arie and Lauren make me feel sick
lauren is so simplle sweet and natural
I knew he likes Lauren a lot!!!!!!! He just picked the other girl because he thought she is a good wife material...with his logic side. Emotionally he definitely was so into Lauren. He never was in love with the other one.
I love Lauren she so sweet and genuine I hope Arie doesnt brake her heart. ❤💕 as for becca I hope she finds the one for her. Wish them both the best
Your so dumb
Lauren is introverted. That’s a personality type you know? Stop saying she doesn’t have a personality.
Ayo Aroks Thank you!
She's so natural and beautiful shes like a fairy she's definitely the star fish! Love Lauren ❤️
This is not the first break up in the history of dating world and if Arie is an bad guy than Garrett is the worst who ended his marriage 2 months after the wedding.
So,It's Becca's loss either way.
Y’all Stop Judging Arie!! No one is perfect ! Don’t tell me neither of you had a change of heart ??
What he did was Wrong but let’s face it is a Show and they’ll do anything to have someone dream come true ...I’m happy for Becca she will finally have the opportunity to find true Love ..
Agree Marie. Women change their minds too! Being pressured to get engaged is truely NOT the way to go!
Guys this is what calum Scott is singing, you're the reason.
Why are people acting like this has never happened before?
Arie did what he had to do. I'm not mad at that.
Host:"Do you trust this man with your heart."
Lauren:"Absolutely."
OH ARE U SUREEEEEEEE ?!?!?!?
Whenever these two are interviewed they seem like they keep looking at each other as if trying to remember to get the "story" straight.
Becca dodged a big BULLET! Good luck to you, Lauren, you will DEFINITELY need it!
Well, that didn’t turn out to be true. 2023 and Lauren & Arie have a sweet family and are doing great!
Ppl,here bashing Arie but more than 80% of guys love and wanna marry woman like Lauren.
She's very sweet and caring and looks just like an Princess.
Two of the most burning people of all time.
Love you Lauren! It takes a very strong woman to love and continually forgive an imperfect man. I admire your strength and ability to be gracious to someone you broke your heart first.
Yes. i am so glad she understood the whole thing and got him back
I didn't get to watch, but did Lauren get the same engagement 💍 that Becca received in the finale? I don't have 📺 @ home
Linda Olsob no, she got a different ring
You can check on Jimmy Kimmel Live they were on it.
Linda Olsob no it’s not the same, Becca’s was a 4.0 carats oval shape, Lauren’s is a 3.6 carats cushion shape. Becca’s was bigger and more expensive. There are a ton of articles talking about it 😉
I hope they break up tomorrow
i feel totally the same , it feels disgusting to watch them!
You got it all wrong girls.
I’m with U
What are you jealous???
Won't happen
If Becca truly loved Arie she would not have been so quickly over him to be the new bachelorette!
People always have things to say, love one another that is all it matters.
I love them together and hope they last along time!! 😍🎉
Judging by her saying so few words when they're together, don't count on it.
Ew no
MJ vlogs !!!!! You got problems. Why you so angry?
I am with you TN S. I really believe they love each other. A toast to Arie and Laurie for a wonderful life together.
typo to the above: meant beautiful Lauren
When she asks him if he's over Becca and he says no, he also shakes his head which is tell-tale sign of lying.
He’s the Most Boring, uninteresting and dull man ever! He needed to screw up royally to be even more uninteresting! I give it 6 months
It’s best to brake things now than waiting later so that Becca can get her happily ever on the bachelorette
neil was the ring you gave becca...who made laurens ring?don't look like Neil's work to me...???just wondering who made it...
I guess I’m the only one who actually loves them together🙃
Yep you are 👍
MJ vlogs !!!!! Wtf!
I love them together 👋
I give them 6 months tops
NOT.. Its their business to "MAKE IT" so lets give them room!
I think Becca was chosen as the bachelorette before the show even started - she was showered with gifts, painted in a great light and there was little to no connection between her and Arie during the entire show.
When Lauren told Arie she loved him and he disappeared for a moment I think that was to confirm he could tell her he loved her so it wouldn’t mess with the future bachelorette pick - Becca. The set her up perfectly for the next show, and when Arie “broke up” with her she didn’t even cry, it all seemed very fake and directed to me.
This entire season was a joke - all the dates Arie took the girls on we’re terrible, and though I do feel he and Lauren have a genuine connection, I don’t think he and Becca were connected at all.
Won’t be watching Becca’s season.
Alicia Warren right? I thought the same too. The reaction she gave when she heard he was talking to Lauren is not normal. Any other women would have kicked his balls out.
Alicia Warren I agree! My exact thoughts. I see a connect with arie and Lauren but with Becca it just seems it was all too planned she was so happy to be bachelorette right away too
why wouldn't she be happy to move on? would you rather her mope around and pine after a guy that didn't take her feelings into consideration AT ALL? I guess the 'right thing' to do when a guy leaves you for another girl is to wallow while he moves onto his happily ever after? NAH. Becca is strong AF. She has remained classy and poised throughout the whole season and stayed out of any drama. She handled Arie's bs the same way she handled Ross trying to win her back-- in a no nonsense way. He's telling her he doesn't love her-- why give him the pleasure of watching her break down?
MaddestHatter13 I think her being the bachelorette is just all too staged, her and Arie had no connection, she was dressed up and down on the first date even though they had zero interaction before this, she kept sticking around in spite of the fact that yet again there was no connection between her and Arie, and her “ex” popping up was just for ratings and to make her even more interesting. I think it’s all an act.
You nailed it.. Becca will get what she wants "EVENTUALLY" The show was predictable...
I’m happy.. Arie doesn’t deserve Becca
true, he's too handsome for her!
lololol it's funny how he didn't even think about breaking things off with becca until he knew lauren would take him back.. that's insecure. HE'S 36. i also feel like Lauren is the type of person who is gonna need reassurance every single day and they're both like that, so i guess they're perfect for each other. so so glad Becca dodged that bullet and is gonna find way better.
The blonde always wins
fucking true
I think he could had end it easier . I don’t think need to stay with someone you don’t want, but that is his life. I wish Arie and Laura happiness .
Michael says "don't go away, we have a game for you to play" yet Arie and Lauren weren't on again. GMA never showed them playing a game like Michael said they were going to.
Krystal knew what was up all along. Being indecisive about bowling was one thing, but just completely abandoning Becca with no empathy at all was just horrible. Did he even say sorry? Nothing about all this was genuine. I wish them the best though, we’ll see if this lasts. 🤷♀️
Love Becca!! She’s super strong!!
Lauren can do so much better!!
All the hate in the comments and yet today they are happily married with a daughter.
Can you imagine......on national television
One of the things that bothered me the most about Arie’s breakup with Becca is he never clearly explained why. Why did he realize she was not the one? Maybe it was something about her, or them when they were together, and maybe it was personal and he didn’t want to say in front of the cameras. But there’s gotta be more to the picture, he was so vague. Maybe he doesn’t even consciously realize what it was himself. SMH 🤦🏻♀️ men
Lauren is sweet and I wish them well.
She has no self respect for herself
Simone Umba ! Exactly 💯
Everybody makes mistakes. Should he have filmed the breakup? No, but it's not an uncommon thing for people to break up and Becca is the next Bachelorette so I really don't see why people are so upset about it still. And the reason Arie proposed was probably because he felt that he had to for the show's purpose. if he hadn't, he would've been hated for not doing it just like Brad Womack was when he did that on his season
I don't think they'll last. They haven't even been to dinner together. He's just desperate to knock someone up and have that trophy wife who will stay quiet and in the background. I give them a year. And that's being generous.
+OnlyInDreams+ ABC only made her the Bachelorette to do damage control after multiple fans were saying they were done with Bachelor Nation.
Simone Umba what is this based on? Your surface level assessment of the situation? Easy for you to judge...
